Re: Anyone still using XBMC on an Xbox....recent IMDB scraper issue

["Tim" <tim@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Wow, Ember is cool - I didn't even know about it until this post -
Pity it doesnt work with W7 media Centre (or rather on cursory inspection I
can't see that it does) as that WOULD be awesone.  I still have a hacked
XBox so I might play with it again and see how my movies look.  If anyone
has used it with W7 could they let me know pls.

Tim.
