Build Highlights:

1. vdr-addon v4.3.9
   • Addon download links: RPi / RPi2
2. PR:6415 included in newclock4 - enables Chapter thumbnail extraction in Bookmarks OSD
   • Performance feedback welcome on this change, as it may be necessary to disable by default on Pi1 and leave enabled on Pi2. There will be a GUI setting eventually.
3. Added: PR:3895: Use neon-vfpv4 fpu on RPi2
   • Potential performance improvement - see PR for details.
4. Updated splash video download with wait for network
   • Network wait will timeout eventually. It's a background process, so any waiting shouldn't delay Kodi startup.
