MaesterRo put together this video showing off some of the new features of FSD. All the Icons have been redone in vector format for some clean HD Quality. Also the theme manager is coming along nice and almost finished up.

You guys keep asking about an eta : we have no ETA and probably wont have. Working on FSD is a hobby for all the team, so we never know much time we can put on it.

Current Status :
* Its pretty hard to give an overall status… Media player is still not in there (JQE is working on this, but still not committed the code)
* Recent games list still need to be totally redone. Some skin work need to be done to have a dynamic number of tabs. We still need to experiment and try to figure out how to get stock dash recently played list. If we cant do easily we’ll probably just add a last time played datetime to each game and use this.
* Favorites : Still need to be 100% rewritten.
* Game type switching : Still need to be 100% rewritten
* Copy DVD : Still need to adapt FSD 1.XX code and properly clean. Currently not working.
* File Manager : Working but we want to change the way it behave (should be back to drive list instead of having to use shoulder button to switch drive)
* Nand flasher : working great
* About : Still need some work but will be quick.
* Game List : Games are listed but not sorted. Everything still need to be plugged in (boxart, game description, preview). I think game renaming feature broke in some previous rev, will need to fix it.
* Built-In Indexer : Need to add screenshots and preview movie with proper settings.
* HTTP : Still having some freeze issue and need to tweakt it a bit, otherwise its working great. Need to add priorites to the download queue.
* XeX extraction : Working great.
* Skin Edit Mode : Working great.
* Skin customisation : Working great.
* RSS Reader : Still need some work.
* Internal XML Reader : We’re looking to change it to a SAX implementation, still need to be done.
* Autoupdater : First tests are working great but still need some intensive testing.
* Multilanguage : No work has been done on this yet.

Theres still lots of “Surprise” we have to experiment with and see what can be done than may imply changes in previous listed stuff.

Here you go a video of the FSD 2.0 in action.

Just dropping by to post the most recent update.

Lots of big updates:

-All icons have been redrawn as vector images, and now are silky smooth at 1080p
-Theme Module is basically complete, this video is here to show it in action.

Let me know what you think guys!

Thanks!

A new ‘point release’ of the open source FreeStyle Dash for homebrew 360s has been released by Team FSD.

What’s new/fixed:
* XBOX 1 Support
* GamerPic
* NTP Time synchronisation
* Minor bugfixes

Node21 (Team XeDev) released a new version of XM360.

What’s new/fixed (since v1.2):
* Added support for ntpd. Each time you launch XM360, it will update the 360′s clock (if it can connect to the ntpd) – Big Thanks to Ced2911 of team xedev!
* Added ability to configure the IP of the ntpd server (see the cfg file for more details)
* Added time display to first page
* Because some people may now use XM360 *only* to set their clock, it no longer automatically scans when starting up
* Added support for an extra path to search for XBLA titles instead of only the built in ones. See the cfg file for more details.
* The report generated for DLC now clearly indicates DLC which you have but wasn’t found when scraping the marketplace.
* Fixed focus stuck on list if you moved there before scanning
* If your startup time is very long, it’s because XM360 is trying to reach the time server and can’t. Either figure out why that is, and fix it, or set your TIME_SERVER_IP to be empty in the config file and setting the time will be skipped.
* Fixed EXTRA_XBLA_SEARCH_PATH not working (it was working, but erroneously stated that it needed a trailing slash)
