i use cvs build 2003-12-11 together with relax 0.75.

for example wen i go to \my music\relax\bon jovi\crossroads and i click "..", i end up in \my music\relax.

whatever i select after that, for example bon jovi again, i go back to \my music, this should be \my music\relax\bon jovi.

after that i can select relax again and then i can browse to my bon jovi directory again.

this is driving me crazy! i also have this problem with the webserver (exact same thing). so i dont know if the problem is with relax or with xbmc.

edit : updated the cvs date, wasn't paying attention
edit2 : also the same problems with relax 076pre

relax is not recommended, it is not fully compatible with xbmc. try ccxstream (xbms protocol)

the problem is not just with relax. the same thing happens with xmbs.

i've captured the problem. xmbc doesnt always send the correct arguments with its *cat command.

when first entering an xns url, it sends a *cat command with no arguments. this has some unpredictable results. from an xbmp packet capture, it should send *cat,/

[poing]

there was a patch for xbms to make it fully xbmc compatible some months ago. xbmc sends *cat without parameter and expects this to return the root directory of the xns share. there should be no "current directory" state on the server, this is crappy design...

just to clarify: there is xbms, a unix xns server (xns:// shares) and ccxstream, a unix/win32 xbmsp server (xbms:// shares). based on using xbmc for months with xbms and testing it a few times with ccxstream they both work 100% including browsing deep directories.

i actually redownloaded the xbms source from here, which already has the xbmc compatibility patch applied to it, and it still doesnt work correctly.

edit: i just tried ccxstream, and its works great. no more xbms for me. just need to update my xbmp config to use an xbmsp location.
