OpenELEC_Helix (Milhouse) - Version: devel-20140611033114-r18578-g066a729
Based on tip of OpenELEC master (066a729, changelog) and tip of XBMC master (603c7fa, 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-3.15.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. Also double-key suppression.
- 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 libnfs master with directory caching support
