For those with power issues, this may have been covered before but I'll refresh it here, a decent 5v psu isn't enough if you overclock. the pi will pull more amps when overclocked. I have found that a 2 amp 5v PSU is good enough to run the pi in super OC or even at 1Ghz. anything below this you'll probably get resets and dirty shutdowns.
Also if overclocking be sure to add heatsinks to your pi. Either way raspbmc including this gotham branch run really sweet on the 3 pi's in my house, with super OC setting and 2amp psu's.
Hi Miappa, may I ask what the PVR fixes are in this build ? not seeing any issues but interested what tweaks have been made.
thanks
