Build Highlights:

1. New firmware
   
2. Experimental MVC 3D support - needs testing:
   

   I've added a gui option (in video/acceleration settings) "Support MVC video (full frame 3D)". For testing purposes this will default to on.
   Note: This is experimental. It will affect all H.264 video content, although should be harmless when the video is not MVC.
   
   Start with your 3D BluRay ISO file. Run makemkv on it and be sure to enable the "MVC-3D" stream (this is currently required as ffmpeg doesn't support MVC in ISO).
   
   The mkv video file needs to be marked as 3D, so either name it as 3D.SBS, or use video OSD settings to mark it as SBS (or TAB).
   Now the video file should be played in a half-SBS (or half-TAB) mode.
   
   If anyone has any MVC files, I'd be interested in the results of your testing.
   
   This is stage one. It is possible to output a full resolution frame packed 3D mode over HDMI (I have this working with command line omxplayer),
   and having this working will be the next stage. However getting the GUI to do something sensible in this mode will require more work.
