One thing worth mentioning. If somebody, coming from 12.3, once updated to the nightlies post-Frodo, then went back to Frodo, he needs to deleted the videodb entry under userdata folder that was generated back then (I think it's videodb78 or videodb76, sorry not at my htpc currently). Otherwise Gotham beta doesn't upgrade the 12.3 database and starts using directly the updated version. Problem is, you lose all updates since your going back to Frodo 12.3.
I don't know if I explained this properly...
For troubleshooting and bug reporting please make sure you
read this first (usually it's enough to follow instructions in the second post).

@bossanova808:
That would be due to the fact that OpenElec has merged PR3677.
i.e. this is something OpenElec has merged that isn't in mainline and won't be in Gotham.

I've been trying to get audio streaming from tablet to XBMC working (Spotify and Bubble UPNP), and it's broken ever since Gotham. It was working fine with Frodo.
WAV and LPCM (two options for audio streaming through upnp) are both broken with XBMC. WAV gets static noise, while LPCM just doesn't play at all. This was my original post at xda-developers forum:
--
Hello, this is what I use.
Media server running XBMC 13.1 (Gotham) with SPDIF passthrough to Logitech Z-5500 5:1 speaker set.
Nexus 7 tablet running a rooter rom, Xposed and the full version of Bubble UPNP.
I've been using Bubble UPNP and MX Player to stream video files from the media server to the tablet without problems for the past months. But now I want to stream Spotify from the tablet to XBMC. I can't get this done. I've rooted the tablet, enabled Xposed, selected XBMC as the render, local library as the library, but it just doesn't play.
When I change the codec in BubbleUPNP from Auto or LCPM to WAV, it does play (I can see the source being played on xbmc), but it produces a horrible noise. With Auto or LCPM, it just doesn't play at all.

Upgraded to Gotham and this is my experience so far:
a) It kept my old skin though it is not compatible (even said so). Had to restart to get the default one again
b) Didn't manage to get HDMI passthrough working but have to retest that, so perhaps I did something wrong
c) All my movies were there but I couldn't play those that were located on a NAS. He always said that they aren't available (but they were accessible through the Windows Explorer). Haven't changed anything in the network setup except updaing to Gotham so I guess the error lies there somewhere. Was able to play local files though. Is there anything specific to check in such a case? As this is a major "feature" I doubt that it hadn't been tested yet so I guest I did something wrong. Any hints?

Doesn't export library to separate files save watched status to the nfo file, not entirely sure as I've never used it.
