    Phoronix: XBMC 10 Is Imminent, XBMC 11 Is Already In Planning

    We have just been told that the 10.0 "Dharma" release of XBMC is due out this coming week. XBMC 10.0 presents a unified add-on framework and a lot of features related to this work for providing new functionality, initial gesture support for the XBMC GUI Engine, improved mouse support, Broadcom Crystal HD decoding support, native support for unencrypted Blu-ray playback, support for Google WebM, and many other changes. While XBMC 10.0 isn't even out the door, XBMC 11.0 "Eden" is already well into planning...

    Name change

    They should consider changing the name since they dropped support for the original xbox. Be glad when we get a 360 variant. I don't watch the news so I don't know.

    excellseor.

      "Some of the Linux video fun exciting us in this release is VA-API video acceleration support"

      Yes, supported, but maybe one should mention also that it is not included in the build and you only take advantage of it by compiling the sources yourself.

            Use a nvidia card and you don't have such issues. Feel free to file a bug report at Freedesktop with the title "Intel opensource drivers only free solution for accelerated decoding and playback."
