For this moment Gotham is "broken" for Rpi and waiting for fixes.

- updated kernel (3.10.0)

- updated Weather Wunderground addon

- added limitcacherate to advenced settings.

Introduced setting 'limitcacherate', which, if present and set to 'false', disables rate limiter when writing to the cache buffer, therefore allowing the buffer to be filled as fast as the source allows. Disabling the limiter (and, when doing so, making player believe it doesn't utilize cache by not returning stats) helps to maintain buffer as full as possible. Underruns are virtually gone. And, if memory buffer is used, the cache writer thread will block whenever the buffer is full, therefore preventing uncontrolled looping.

In order to use this new setting would we need to delete any of the existing advanced settings you have suggested in the past? Would we add this to the advanced settings such as <limitcacherate>false</limitcacherate> ?

No. Dont delete old settings and only add new setting.

Where in advancedsettings.xml does <limitcacherate>false</limitcacherate> go?

He's probably referring to this commit:
https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/2811
which kills performance on Pi.

The last Gotham build from rbej doesn't include that commit.

When i have 2 files, the movie starts in <= 1 second!

I missing a answer for this question!
The problem is in both builds, frodo and gotham!

Is the calc Total Duration Time the problem?

@Koloss

Are those 2 seconds really that important?

I want to know what is the difference? I do start the same movie!
