  • Includes newclock3 patches
  • Excludes the OpenELEC fernetmenta patches due to conflicts with newclock3

Build Highlights:
  1. newclock3-based build.
  2. New firmware, with fix for dvdplayer passthrough.
Build Details:
  1. Firmware (Aug 30):
    • firmware: mmal: Update to latest upstream mmal code
    • firmware: OV5647: Use custom_config param to allow forcing sensor mode. See: link
    • firmware: Annotate: Add option for frame counter and black background. See: link
    • firmware: Fix for broken passthrough with dvdplayer due to unintended dither. See: link

    • [JSON-RPC] FIX: Do not reopen PVR playback when new channel requested (PR:5298, 1 commit, 1 file changed)
