Win Verdict? Gotham Vs Frodo?
#1
So I am currently using Frodo and get most of what I want, I keep reading all these issues with Gotham so should I wait to update? Is it worth updating this early? Your opinions are much appreciated. Thank you.

Nightly's ftw!

In all seriousness, backup your Userdata folder first, and then go with Gotham.
#3
Most of the Gotham "issues" are simply cases of

or certain add-ons not updated for Gotham yet.

Gotham is working with no problems here on 3 different machines.

Gotham just for the new way sets are handled!

If an addon author has not updated for Gotherm what makes you think s/he is going to update it for Helix?

I can't honestly tell the difference but then i only use the basic's of xbmc i install a skin setup my SMB Shares scan content in and that is about it the only addons i use are Artwork Downloader and the XBMC Backup i run it on Windows so for anything else (youtube, etc... i just use a browser


I am sure there is plenty under the hood but i just don't use it so cannot really compare Smile

and now because it popped in my head soon as i used the word compare

enjoy!!!!! Smile

I don't notice much of a difference on x86 but on android it's definitely worth it . But well, why wouldn't you just stay up to date? As long as you use only basic functions of XBMC it's not going to hurt you.

VLC is there for this use case, why bother at all right?

Gotham 13.1 on both my Android makes a big difference from Frodo. And while at it, I also installed it on my two Windows 7 HTPCs and love it. I wouldn't go back.
