Just wondering if there are any plans to implement 12.3 in the Beta 2 installation:

http://xbmc.org/xbmc-12-3-frodo-fixes/

It won't be officially in Beta 2 but will be included in Xbian 1 (which I believe will be Gotham)

I guess most of those fixes will be in the gotham-nightly builds but I haven't had much success with it - too many crashes.

With a final release for Gotham still being a few months out, and xbmc 12.3 having a few important fixes for rpi playback, I would really love to see xbmc 12.3 on xbian beta 2. Do you guys have a tutorial/instruction available on howto get 12.3 on beta 2? Will a package be made available? I'm not up for nightlies/alpha's of Gotham yet (my gf kills me when stuff breaks with the htpc setup ) so I would love to see xbmc 12.3 in between.

The current xbmc contains a lot of Gotham backports (more than Frodo 12.3 has).

Along these lines, what version database versions does xbian contain? good to know for mysql syncing.

M32 V75 is current stable Frodo12.2
M32 V75 is current stable Frodo12.3
M43 V77 is latest Gotham Nightly

SHOW ME which one patch is such.

I was explaining few times that specially development of XBMC on RPI differs from upstream. it is a bit like upstream + pimp my ride.

Current XBian Frodo12.2 as stable on B2 is compiled on 24-Dec 2013 with commits to it in mid Dec.

(official Frodo12.3 is !!!Oct-2013 release!!! and won;t be updated anymore. hands up who was the one wanting to downgrade only because 12.3 > 12.2?)

@bacobart

there are no instructions / tutorials as all this are regular package updates managed by apt/dpkg. if you enabled autoupdates, you will be notified if restart needed. if you didn't enable them, you will be notified if new are available.
