Miappa,
Filename in wget command has wrong name.... Shouldn't be "...20131212-nc3..."

Quote:This is using ActiveAE engine with a Pi specific sink.
It also enables paplayer for audio. This means that features like gapless audio (cross fading) and replaygain should work.
Also GUI sounds will be using this.
I've been working with FernetMenta the last few days and he's made some AE improvements that makes this look promising.
(And there's plans for a bit more optimisation to come).
I'm thinking about making this the default in the future, but want to check if performance is okay, and there are no stutters, glitches or lagginess on audio.
Video playback will still use omxplayer, and should behave as before.

Is it possible to keep the same video calibration (in my case, the subtitle position because the other settings are 0,0 and 0,0) regardless the framerate of the screen ?
The frame rate does not affect video calibration, only the resolution. Isn't it ?
Otherwise I have to set subtitle position(and/or video calibration) for every FPS.

ActiveAE on Pi uses too much CPU load and AFAIK Its not a good idea to enabled it.
So, this commit will help on this matter?

Quote:Also, how does this one work and does one need to do anything else (on Raspbmc)?Yes, that patch won't help (nor harm) raspbmc, as xbmc isn't run as root.

Quote:Regarding DVD iso playback, it works now (did a merged build before you merged everything, but I missed a couple of PR´s), but when you choose player it still defaults to DVDPlayer, but OMX is used no matter what you choose.The intention that dvdplayer is mapped to omxplayer. I don't believe there is any useful reason for using dvdplayer on Pi.
