I have found most of the more recent gotham builds to be flaky.
- I had a persistent startup problem with the most recent build: It would freeze on the XBMC splash screen. The only workaround I found was to killall xvmc.bin. deleting guisettings may have helped initially, as it booted ok with no guisettings file. Subsequent boots froze again, however;
- every build I tried since august has messed up the video calibration (the widths of interface elements are distorted) between restarts and has to be manually corrected.
- since people have mentioned CEC issues, I was having CEC trouble with many gotham builds throughout August, but this seemed to be resoved with the mid-september build.
- generally less stable.
I am, again, back with the July 7 build. Some features are definitely slower, but it is the most reliable Gotham build I have used.

Hmm.. Looks like all Add-on's are gone (can't see many), when I make a new Gotham install :-( OpenELEC-RPi.arm-Rbej-Version-Gotham-Branch(11.09.2013).tar.bz2
The same image, worked yesterday, with no problems ?!?

smanders, I don't have any particular insight into the issue. My only thoughts are that you might try connecting directly to the TV to see how that goes. I assume you are using HDMI passthrough so that the end device decodes audio?
Would you mind answering my question? Is your RPi networked wired or wireless? I can't get decent playback of Myth recordings by wireless on the RPi. Frequent buffering.

Hmm "XBMC Version Check" and other says at start up, that Add-on' has broken repository, when I install the lasted Gotham build (11-09-2013) from Rbej.
Anyone have an idea ? And I can't find many Add-on's anymore.
Best regards

Why are there so few Gotham builds ? Have they gone into a freeze period for the GSOC 2013 changes ?

iOS 7.0 is broken in Frodo and Gotham.
