Kind of somber to think that @burgerbecky.bsky.social never got a chance to put this kit to use. I can only imagine what a talented dev like her could have done with it. Fuck cancer.

Developer Nikola Antonić has published a new nightly channel of XBMC 4 that includes support for Python v3.4.10 (up from v2.7). This is a preview channel- performance is still quite slow for py3 for the time being. github.com/antonic901/x...

As a semi-professional photographer and amateur archivist, it kills me when people share photos by screenshotting them on their phones. I get that it's now always obvious how to download original copies, but I feel like most people aren't aware (or care) about the lost fidelity. 🙁

MakeMHz has issued a DMCA takedown against Pandora, an automated way of accessing Xbins. Xbins is a repository of homebrew apps, games, and BIOSes for the Original Xbox that has been around for many, many years. Xbins still exists, but Pandora is now unavailable to download or be developed publicly.

That's a shame. This means once OXHD comes out, it won't be able to be discussed on ogxbox.com, even though it's entirely its own project and shares no lineage, code, or designs from MakeMHz's HD+ product. I can assume this is the intended outcome from throwing around so many DMCA threats.

Hot take (?): Homebrew developers who use 1st-party source code / dev software leaks for a retired game console shouldn't be treated as thieves and scoundrels. It's what's keeping it alive and relevant 20 yrs later. Read my full response to such accusations here: www.xbox-scene.info/forums/topic...

PSA (again)- if the help content for your app simply says "turns X feature on or off", then you do NOT have help for that feature! I'm so tired of reaching for the manual and getting as much explanation as my own two eyes can see. Well duh, but what is that feature?? What does it do?! smdh 🙄

I finished up work on another video project to go alongside the Xbox VGA boards. It's a simple YPbPr video and stereo+SPDIF audio adpater with a TI video amp, and the ability to turn the built in HD low pass filters off in that amp. Similar to a newer XOSVP or better HDAV pack.
