OpenELEC_Helix (Milhouse) - Version: devel-20140601160029-r18509-g36c45ec

Based on tip of OpenELEC master (36c45ec, changelog) and tip of XBMC master (9fabae2, changelog) with the following modifications:
  • Includes newclock3 patches
  • 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.
  • Includes RPi-specific libCEC commits from mk01/libcec. See build #0527 for details.
  • Increase scan interval of PeripBusCEC from 5000 to 60000, reducing CPU loading by about 2% (1GHz Pi) every 5 seconds (even when CEC is "disabled")
  • Includes PR4811: SysInfo refactoring, startup log update
  • Includes PR4817: [infoscanner] recursive fast hash for enumerating series folders

@Forage please confirm if the libcec double-key fix in #0601 is working for you or not. I have seen a post on #IRC suggesting the fix made no difference so it will be dropped unless there is positive feedback. Thanks.
