XBMC 13.0-ALPHA8 GIT: 201309928-9784790 (complete: sep 28 2013)
Have you ever watched a full lenth 1080p movie with this? That one still has the libstagefright problem where after a while (for me about 20 to 30 minutes, for some an hour, I guess it depends on the hardware or the amount of RAM) the movie starts dropping frames. A stop and resume fixes it but it is not okay. If you only tested it for 5 minutes it looks quite right, but it turns out to be not so if you really start using it. Also plugins like Youtube do not work, these only started to work again early november when the issue with the android python version was fixed/bypassed.

For me the best is still xbmc-20130219-32e99c7-android-hwaccel-armeabi-v7a.apk in combination with an external player for 1080p (MXPlayerPro in my case). But since this was a test build this version is no longer available.

The latest nightlies vary, some days libstagefright works, the next day mediacodec, then none etc. Not stable anyway. And I get sound problems on Youtube playback which stragely enough nobody else seems to experience, yet I get it on 3 completely different devices. Go figure...

I hope at the end of the month there will be a next stable alpha build where hopfully finally everything works at the same time for once...

Until that time, hold your breath. I know Koying is trying to find the libstagefright problem or already found it, so that would be one problem less if that is fixed. There is still some time until the release date to go...

Exactly, that's why I commented.

The version [13.0-ALPHA8 GIT: 201 309 928] works uncut and it stops with 720p and 1080p movies, I checked several days.

Of course, what works is not YOUTUBE plugin, but from what I see in the forum happens to many people with different versions of XBMC.
