Just for feedback I found the buffering not as good as on this previous version;
# OpenELEC release: RPi.arm-devel-20130330212420-r13669
# OpenELEC git: 3ffb2e877e12828f00bf76326e94b5956350d7bb

i have to agree that the buffering has suffered greatly since we have switched back to <cachemembuffersize> any 1080p video with the slightest bit of grain is going to buffer and stall....even on 512mb pi's. This issue did not persist when we were using the <freememorycachepercent> . someone should reach out to make these work with the omx patches.
