Thread: nGhost Media Center Beta

Here are some teaser screenshots from the upcoming nGhost Media Center 0.95. Release date is coming soon...

Very nice skin... what are you using for a audio backend?

oh i like that much more than the current skin [default]! cant wait for the new release guys!

(i'm currently trying to get my sound card working again, it worked for a day or so, then when ever i open i song using nghost it's really staticy and gets worse the longer the song plays, currently not sure if its a driver/kernel issue (i dont think so b/c i dont have the problem w/ mpg123) or a mplayer problem, or a nghost issue )

but still cant wait

i really like the look of the current interface, i'm going to have to try this soon

i built expereimental last night after filling the depenencies, I"m wondering which one your currently doing the work in where we'll see progress and can test new features

I just got the branches set up. Currently, experimental is the only semi-stable version (which is kinda weird for an experimental branch). Most of our work is done in unstable (which is currently broke). The "main" branch is reserved for releases/stable updates but because of the newness of the branches it contains a much less up-to-date version of unstable.

Right now we are currently working on integrating a pluginable database system. This will make switching between mysql (for speed) or sqlite (for size) for the database backend as easy as changing a line in the config file. The code is in but there is a lot of debugging to be done so we can fix it. It has taken a bit longer than expected but we'll get it done as soon as the devs and myself can devote more time to finishing up the release.

[update] unstable is no longer broke

Somewhat unrelated, but I'll ask just the same. Are there any good applications for viewing DVB-T/S for SDL? Any plans for integrating one in nGHOST?

Mplayer, nGhost's media backend has support for DVB. Support for this in nGhost is not currently planned at this stage. It may be available as a possibility later as an extension.
