WHAT'S NEW
Version 0.4.5:
- NEW: High quality software upscaling is now supported. You can specify preferences in Video -> Player as to when the scaling is enabled and what scaling algorithm is used. This makes a huge difference when viewing SD content. This definitely takes quite a bit of processing power, but the good news is that decoding SD content doesn't.
- NEW: Monitor blanking is now supported. When selecting a full-screen mode, you have the option of telling XBMC to blank the other monitors. The preference is in Appearance -> Screen. I suspect Martin will be happy that he can stop throwing a sweater over his iMac, which sounded like a fire hazard to me.
- NEW: The built-in web server now works. Among other things, it serves as an alternate remote control for those of you using a laptop as an expensive remote. Make sure to set a port above 1024.
- NEW: You can now store your own skins in Library/Application Support/XBMC/skin, to avoid having to move aside and reinstall skins every time you upgrade. Thanks to d4rk for coding this up!
- FIX: A crash when reading WMA files.
- FIX: The OS X mouse cursor sometimes made an unwelcome appearance in full-screen mode.
- FIX: Settings that made no sense for OS X have been removed to reduce confusion. Follow the link and
