Updated Gotham build from Popcornmix´s piaudio_sink with newclock3 patches, rebased on XBMC master on Dec 14.

Main feature (test) and quote from popcornmix:

This is using ActiveAE engine with a Pi specific sink.
It also enables paplayer for audio. This means that features like gapless audio (cross fading) and replaygain should work.
Also GUI sounds will be using this.

I've been working with FernetMenta the last few days and he's made some AE improvements that makes this look promising.
(And there's plans for a bit more optimisation to come).

I'm thinking about making this the default in the future, but want to check if performance is okay, and there are no stutters, glitches or lagginess on audio.
Video playback will still use omxplayer, and should behave as before.

If you don´t have libdvdcss already you will have to compile this as explained in post #1.
Nov/Dec update or latest firmware from master tree recommended, also explained in post #1.

To install, SSH to Pi and (note the ” .” (space + dot) in the end of the cp command!):

Code:

cd .upgrade
wget -O xbmc-13-20131214-nc3-dvd-ae.tar.gz http://goo.gl/CccvEV --no-check-certificate
mkdir -p xbmc-13-20131214-nc3-dvd-ae
tar -xzf xbmc-13-20131214-nc3-dvd-ae.tar.gz -C xbmc-13-20131214-nc3-dvd-ae
cd xbmc-13-20131214-nc3-dvd-ae/xbmc-bcm/xbmc-bin/lib/xbmc/system
cp /usr/local/lib/libdvdcss.so.2.1.0 .
ln -sf libdvdcss.so.2.1.0 libdvdcss.so.2
ln -sf libdvdcss.so.2 libdvdcss.so

Then in Raspbmc, go into "Raspbmc Settings/Nightly Build Configuration/Switch Between Versions of XBMC", and choose new build + restart XBMC.

Sam´s omxalsa patch is not included in this build.
Paplayer needs to be set in advencedsettings, but as Raspbmc sets this by default no changes should be necessary.
