New stuff since last public release (v1.03):
* FTP speeds now 10Mb+ to internal HDD.
* FTP working in many more clients (see FTP info section).
* Copy DVD to USB drive or HDD.
* View recently played games.
* Preview video for each game.
* Sounds within user interface.
* View free disk space on all drives.
* Date and Time in dashboard.
* Background Artwork.
* Add images manually using indexer.
* Full file browser support, including copy, move, delete etc.
Future of Freestyle Dash
I no longer have to time to continue development of this dashboard. I may have time for the odd fix, but for it to continue to develop someone needs to set up a svn and project page and get the community developing it further. I have included the full source code to everything to build the dash and indexer, but if ive missed anything please let me know.
