OpenELEC_Helix (Milhouse) - Version: devel-20140524225909-r18461-gef698a1

Based on tip of OpenELEC master (ef698a1, changelog) and tip of XBMC master (6806c33, changelog) with the following modifications:
  • Includes newclock3 (except for a6a85a6, a patch to avoid hammering the GUI, which has been replaced with a static spinner)
  • Includes Python regex package for evaluation purposes. Initial benchmarking indicates generally positive (and in some cases, significant) performance gains. See this post for a description of how to test effectiveness of this package with addons
  • Excludes the OpenELEC fernetmenta patches due to conflicts with newclock3
  • Excludes the OpenELEC linux-01-RPi_support patch in favour of sourcing these and possibly more recent patches directly from kernel branch rpi-3.14.y
  • Excludes the OpenELEC xbmc-master-newclock3 patch in favour of sourcing these and possibly more recent patches directly from newclock3 branch
  • Default setting for "Show RSS Feed" changed to disabled
  • Disabled "Total Duration" in Confluence (see build #0221 for details)
  • ALSA is enabled and any suitable hardware should be available in XBMC Audio Settings
  • FIQ FSM is enabled by default. See initial post for more details.
Build Highlights:
  1. OpenELEC:
    • strace: remove package, moved to unofficial addon repo
  2. XBMC:
    • [guilib] Drop back compatibility code and inconsistencies (PR:4613)
