The XboxMediaCenter Project

XBMC (XBox Media Center) is a free open source (GPL) multimedia-player for the Xbox™ from Microsoft. Currently XBMC can be used to play/view most popular video/audio/picture formats such as DVD-Video, VCD/SVCD, MPEG-1/2/4, DivX, XviD, MP3, AAC, JPG, GIF, PNG, and most other popular multimedia formats (plus many more less known formats) directly from a CD/DVD in the Xbox DVD-ROM drive or from the Xbox built-in harddrive. XBMC can also play multimedia-files from a computer over a local-network and even stream media-streams directly from the internet. XBMC can parse DVD-Video movies (with and without menus) from ISO/IMG-images and even ZIP/RAR-archives. XBMC has playlist and slideshow functions, a weather forecast feature and many audio visualizations. XBMC can also use python-scripts, written for XBMC, as plugin widgets. Once xbmc is installed, your Xbox will become a fully functional multimedia-jukebox. XBMC provides a user-friendly interface, that's convenient, flexible, easy to use and offers a great price/performance ratio. (XboxMediaCenter Project, is also known as "XBox Media Center", or "XBMC" for short).

• Notes!
  • XBMC is a non-profit hobby project that is developed only by volunteers in their spare-time without any monetary gain.
  • XBMC does require a modded Xbox to run on or it will not function), (see modchip or software exploit/hack).
  • For a complete list a functions and features see the supported features/formats list here.

SVN tree (and daily SVN builds)

The XBMC project developers uses SVN (a version control system) provided by SourceForge.net to keep track of the XBMC source code and changes in those source code files. This allows our developers to be located anywhere in the world and work on the same source code tree, which means that our SVN tree gets updated (with bug-fixes, new features, etc.) by our different developers almost on a daily basis. Anyone can anonymously download the latest SVN source code tree and compile it to try out the current and very latest XBMC build, (there are also individuals and groups on the internet which specialize in releasing such pre-compiled SVN builds so that people who don't have the tools to compile XBMC themselves can download and test/use the latest XBMC). Note! Team-XBMC only release source code and do not release pre-compiled builds of XBMC, nor are Team-XBMC affiliated with any individuals or groups that release pre-compiled builds of XBMC. In addition understand that SVN builds can be unstable and buggy so don't complain if they hang/lock or otherwise act in an unsatisfactory way, however feel free to report any bugs you find in the very latest SVN.
