OpenELEC (Milhouse) - Version: devel-20140911211726-r19214-gebd5882 [Build #0911]

Based on tip of OpenELEC master (ebd58821, changelog) and tip of XBMC master (7f2a4b11, changelog) with the following modifications:
  • Includes newclock4 patches
  • Excludes the OpenELEC fernetmenta patches due to conflicts with newclock4
  • Excludes the OpenELEC linux-01-RPi_support patch in favour of sourcing these and possibly more recent patches directly from kernel branch rpi-3.16.y
  • Excludes the OpenELEC xbmc-001-newclock3 patch in favour of sourcing these and possibly more recent patches directly from newclock4 branch
  • Default setting for "Show RSS Feed" changed to disabled
  • Disabled "Total Duration" in Confluence (see build #0221 for details)
  • Adapted service.openelec.settings to take advantage of PR5217
  • Includes latest libnfs master (49397f07)
  • Includes latest libcec master (81e38211)
  • Includes latest xbmc-pvr-addons master (39495020)
  • Includes libcec 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 CONFIG_COREDUMP=y to allow creation of coredumps (see here)
  • Includes PR5222: videodb: Add column name on GROUP query otherwise sub query returns no rows
  • Includes PR5237: [WIP][3D] add support for stereomode switches in video playlist
  • Includes PR5247: StringUtils: optimize Split(), new overloads for Split() and Tokenize()
  • Includes PR5307: [UX] Play button/action should not pause
  • Includes PR5312: dvdplayer: do a seek after having changed subtitle stream
  • Includes PR5324: Add setting to hide library clean progress bar.
Build Highlights:
  1. Revert curl-7.38.0 - please confirm if previous addon/artwork/streaming problems are now resolved
  2. Some code renaming changes - best explained by popcornmix:
    Quote:I've created a PR for the dvdplayer/mmal acceleration. Probably too late for Helix, but you never know.
    This was provoked by the resurrection of the openmax acceleration to support tegra (https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/5348).

    I had been hijacking that (with permission from davilla who considered it dead) for the current mmal acceleration.
    This meant I had to go through renaming files and adding new make variables, defines and format enums.

    So upshot is we now call accelerated dvdplayer "mmal acceleration" rather than "openmax acceleration", and there's a small chance that something will have broken in the process.
  3. New commit to disable textbox autoscrolling while the screensaver is active - this should help reduce temperatures and unnecessary CPU loading.
Build Details:
  1. XBMC:
    • [Confluence] add fallback background - fixes #15429
    • [lang] update of internal addon language files
    • [lang] update of core language files
    • [lang] update of skin.confluence language files
  2. newclock4:
    • [mmal] Add MMAL decoder and MMAL renderer for Raspberry Pi
    • [mmal] Allow mmal codec for dvd stills
    • mmal: Add AC_SUBST
    • [rbp] Disable textbox autoscrolling while on screensaver.
    • Merge pull request #7 from anaconda/no-autoscroll-saver
  3. Custom:
    • Revert: curl: update to curl-7.38.0
Texture Cache Maintenance Utility: Preload your texture cache for optimal UI performance. Remotely manage media libraries. Purge unused artwork to free up space. Find missing media. Configurable QA check to highlight metadata issues. Aid in diagnosis of library and cache related problems.
