With official support for Hardy running out in April 2011 (three months away at the time of this update) I really need official Lucid support soon. This latter is a bit more serious, for a dedicated HTPC I'd certainly run an LTS version of Ubuntu just like my servers unless there was a strong reason not to. From a personal standpoint, I still don't like that they missed two months of support for an OS that I'll only have installed for six months and they don't officially support Lucid. While still not a great choice for my own desktop use it's now a viable option for a HTPC or for people looking for a full-screen, keyboard only experience. UPDATE: Shortly after the initial draft XBMC did release an update supporting Maverick. While I'm sure I can get the Lucid build to work, it's broken out of the box on my TouchSmart. The second is a bit more serious, we're two months into the Maverick release and XBMC still doesn't have a Maverick repository. While fantastic for sitting in front of the PC with a bowl of popcorn, the vast majority of the stuff I watch is playing in a small window in the background and I'd rather have a few simple clicks than to scroll through the pretty interface. Is there any reasonable way I can tell my browser to skip the CORS stuff in this case because the server was not made for it? For Firefox or any other common UserAgent? I can't believe it can be so simple without a browser and close to impossible to get it interactive inside browser.XBMC has two main problems. The remote resource at (Reason: CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' missing). H.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "text/xml charset='utf-8'") Ĭlearly the browser (Firefox 47.0) hits Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading H.setRequestHeader("SOAPACTION",'"urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:ContentDirectory:1#Browse"') Some simplest code trying to get the root of the upnp tree. But now I hit the CORS issue as the requests are preflighted by the browser (they are not preflighted when using curl and the server speaks no CORS, just UPnP). Next I thought I could build all this into javascript/kind of interactive browser page. What I manage to do is a shell script based approach using curl to query the Server and xsl processing to make html pages out of the answers. I've been playing around with home-grown UPNP/DLNA Browsing.
