Dumb question, are we still running a test build at this point or are the changes now rolled into the official 14.2 beta?

Windows 7 32bit, 64bit and Windows 8.1 64bit tested and all crashes when selecting "Exit" Kodi have now gone away after 50 automated tests each. The time to close is a little closer to 13.2 times as well. Crashes at the end of playback of a show or movie have also stopped as of now. I will do more thorough testing later on that. The web server crashes seemed to have stopped as well as I am able to control remotely for about 10minutes each hammering clicks without issue.
Great job so far and will post back other results good or bad tonight or this weekend.

So our last known crash is down to 1 user 3 days ago, is this going to be rolled into an official build some time soon then I take it?

Running 14.2 beta 1, now kodis menu is running at 24Hz which looks jerky and sluggish.
I changed the resolution 1080i to 1080p and the screen flickered like the refresh rate went down to about 12Hz. Switched back to i then back to p and flickering stopped but menu runs at 24Hz.
14.1 was fine.
Installed on the Intel nuc i3, Windows 8.1 to a 1080p lcd tv.
Edit: I noticed any progressive resolution I use is set at 24Hz. I have 2 1080i in the display list under Settings > Video. One seems to be 50 and the other at 60Hz, would be better if the Hz is in the name instead of checking via the TVs display info.
Edit2: Also notice the display is not switching to the videos frame rate anymore. Stays locked to 1080i 60Hz. Reinstalling 14.1 doesnt fix it.
Edit3: For some reason my graphics driver was set for 50i. In the Intel Graphics properties, switched it back to 60p and it all now works fine! No idea why it changed, I always have it set for 60. Maybe when I first did the change the graphics driver switched down to 50i.

Hello, im running Kodi 14.2 beta 1 - all my 1080p and 720p x264 mkv videos stutter and dont play smooth at all, i have set up 'adjust display refresh rate to match video' and 'sync playback to display'.
The weird thing is that everything worked great in windows 8.1 x64 enterprise and all videos played fine at 24p. Im now on windows 7 SP1 x64 enterprise.
My rig are: gigabyte p55-ud3, i5 quad core, 16gb ddr3 ram, amd r9 280 3gb.
Im going crazy because i have tried everything i can think off, enable fullscreen, disable fullscreen, switched of all settings under video and so on..
Any tips? Or is this a bug? Kodi 14.2 Beta 1 worked a few days ago with windows 8.1

@jappjapp404: Check your graphics card refresh rate is set to 60Hz. I had the issue of jerky playback too.
