Can someone write a nice blogpost about XBian RC2, then i will put it on the xbian frontpage.

Hmm, new image just gives me a blinking cursor and a red light on the pi.
Does it work for anyone else?

Can you disable all overclocking?

Disabled overclocking, no change. maybe my sd card died. will check tomorrow with another one.
old beta 2 image was running fine. if rc2 image fails again i start updating the old one

If you do, can you make an clean image of it so we can replace the old one when more users experience troubles.

Running newly installed xbian, gotham 13.1 and I cannot install any skin it just states it's incompatible when it's not. anyone experienced a similar problem?

@borrid - You say any skin - is that true or just the ones you want?

I know Amber, Quartz and Confluence are definitely working.

Quite a few skins ARE incompatible at the moment - due to changes in Gotham.

If you can give an example and the output of xbmc.log.

ssh Xbian-config - backup. Seems to block all activity, and runs forever - never ending.

System locks - unable to ssh, control xbmc or anything.

Backup screen seems to lock - no activity,

No option but to hard reboot.

Happened now three times, so obviously an issue,

Quote:@seebaa Make a copy of cmdline.txt and change root=LABEL=xbian-copy to root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 and reboot. See if that helps.

That helped me, xbian rc2 now boots fine.

@fraz0815, can you add this fix to the xbian wiki?

done, also added some dpkg error on 256mb pi I came across.

Hi!
I just updated to Gotham and now I can't seem to run dual audio output. I can still switch between HDMI out and analogue out with no problem, I just can't seem to have both.

Has anyone else had this problem?

That happened to me, but you have just to change a setting. Make sure that you change your settings level on Services to "Expert" and the option to dual audio output will appear. Also, you might have to change the default audio player because it doesn't support dual audio yet. For that you have to edit ~/.xbmc/userdata/advancedsettings.xml and add this before the </advancedsettings> close tag:

@jiserre, can you add this fix to the wiki.

Wow, thanks for the help @jiserre!
I didn't realize xbian carried several players. Does this mean that I could potentially use different players for movies and music and thereby have HDMI sound for the movies but analogue for music?

Right now I use the dual audio to be able to stream music from my computer to my speakers connected to the Rpi but have to turn the speakers off when watching a movie as the audio isn't synced over HDMI and analogue. Being able to tell xbmc to use different players and different audio outputs would make this needless.
