Just after 2-3 seconds, the movie started buffering. About 20 seconds later, a new buffering.
Memory used is about 680mb / 750, could that be a cause?

I'm connected with wire gigabit cable (and router).

Can't see an obvious problem. What is cpu usage like when playing (either from 'o' key when playing, or using top/bcmstat from ssh connection).
Can you measure network bandwidth? (either with iperf, or just copying a large file to pi over network and timing it).
Can you try renaming /storage/.kodi and rebooting? See if the problem disappears without the usual addons/settings.

It could also be a issue with the Netgear Nighthawk X4 router. I did not experience this when i had the DLINK router. Gonna switch and check if its that

It was the damn Netgear Nighthawk X4 router. Such a sucky router.

Connected the Dlink router and all files ect went smooth and nice.

Thanks for your time, and sorry for wasting your time

That does indeed suck, thanks for confirming.

Could it be as simple as the filename having 3d twice and Kodi is only reading the first instance of 3d?

Very unlikely, happens to all files, this was just an example that I happen to own in SBS and TAB both, so I can compare if there is any difference. It does make a difference in that Kodi detects the prefered 3D mode and the GUI gets SBS or TAB accordingly to the movie itself.

my problems actually have been fixed by updating my projectors firmware (more supported 3d modes and edid fix I guess) and a reboot of openelec. Everything is workin as intended now, all I have to do, is switch on and off the full HD 3d output when watching MVC MKVs or SBS MKVs

Unfortunately, my projector doesn't offer any firmware updates at the moment. It has a service USB post, but no updates for my exact model, so I'm stuck with the few EDID modes that actually offer 3D FP. But this is certainly a good advice for many other users - to try to update the TVs firmware.

Can you post a debug log (wiki) when showing a 3D video being played.

Will do this evening. Thank you for your support.

Can somebody running one of the latest builds just confirm something for me before I make a seperate post with a bug report in.

When connecting from the raspberry to another kodi instance using UPnP, are your watched / unwatched counts also incorrect?

Also when hiding watched episodes and sorting by episode count it also doesn't sort in the correct order. Looks like sorting by total episode count.

Just want to see if it isn't maybe an old db problem. I have even deleted my sources and reimported them.

Hi

What happens to all the commits no longer in build?

Thanks.

[illiac4]

Is it known that with latest builds booting takes much longer or. do we need to make any changes to make it faster?

[da-anda]

What happens to all the commits no longer in build?

Depends, some commits no longer in the newclock4 branch already got merged upstream and thus obsolete in the newclock4 branch, others might not have had the expected result and got discarded or got superseeded by others. Remeber that these are test builds and that they can contain experimental stuff that might not work out and get dropped/replaced again.

[popcornmix]

What happens to all the commits no longer in build?

If a commit marked "squash:" is removed it will be squashed in with a preceding commit (there are normally minor fixups to another commit). There will be no change in behaviour due to this.

Otherwise commits are normally dropped due to being merged into kodi. E.g. we dropped:

[rbp] Disable fast_memcpy which is slower than memcpy

from newclock4 because it was added to XBMC.

[Milhouse]

When connecting from the raspberry to another kodi instance using UPnP, are your watched / unwatched counts also incorrect?

UPnP watched status is a work in progress.

Also when hiding watched episodes and sorting by episode count it also doesn't sort in the correct order. Looks like sorting by total episode count.

Known issue (and on trac).

[rterblanche]

Thanks. Just wanted to confirm

Are there options to increase the speed of HDMI CEC?

Yes, in the CEC Settings - you can increase/reduce the delay between button presses and repeats.

Wouldn it be possible to include this setting in the CEC configuration? So we can configurate this via the GUI. We can adjust (almost) all the options mentioned in the file rpi_2708_1001.xml except for the double_tap_timeout_ms?

That should be available in GUI as "Remote button press delay before repeating (ms)"
