GeeXboX v0.1Alpha5

Automatically translated from French.

GeeXboX v0.1Alpha5 Presentation: GeeXboX is, like Mplayer, a "Media Center", meaning it can play videos, music (with a visualizer :D ), photo slideshows and photos. This homebrew, created by farter, is a bit more complete than Mplayer (it's actually based on Mplayer ^^) since it supports a keyboard plugged into the USB port, uses the Wii's bluetooth (I don't know how ^^) on the Wii, the SD card, USB keys, netstreaming, How do you use it? 1 + 2 = Sync the Wiimote with GeeXboX
directional keys = navigate the menu
HOME = show the menu
A = Start/Pause (music & Video); Restart the slideshow (photo)
"-" = lower the volume / shrink the image
"+" = raise the volume / zoom into the image
1 = Previous
2 = Next
B + directional key = Navigate the DVD menu
B + A = Select in the DVD menu / View an image at full size
B + HOME = Stop playback (music & Video) / stop slideshow (photo)
B + "-" = seek backward
B + "+" = seek forward
B + 1 = "Mount" an SD Card (the opposite of B+ 2)
B + 2 = Safely remove the SD Card (like on windows)
B + A + 1 = restart
B + A + 2 = shut down

New features:
- Added (partial) SDHC card support
- Updated to linux 2.6.24.7
- Updated Mplayer to r28184
- Added support for SD cards with multiple partitions
- Bug fix for SD cards with a single partition
- Archive support thanks to Unrar
- Stops supporting binary codecs
- No longer plays corrupted files

Thanks for the news

B + 2 = Unmount the SD card <-- On windows when you do "safely remove" on your usb key, that action is called unmount, so unmount

B + 1 = Mount the SD card <-- So it's the opposite of B + 2, so I think the homebrew doesn't mount it automatically when the SD is inserted.

Use Unrar <-- I think the homebrew handles compressed files. (pure guess since on Linux you use unrar to unpack *.rar files)
