Hi,

I'm having a very minor issue with the notification\toast not updating while cycling trough subtitles or audio languages. The toast only updates when it disappears. It does not update the text when I cycle trough the subtitles multiple times. No difference during playback or pause.
This used to be smoothly on PI2. I tried setting the 'Limit GUI updates during playback' to unlimited but that didn't do anything differently.

In the same screen there is an option 'Allow hardware acceleration - OMXPlayer' but that doenst do anything for this minor problem as well. (btw, what does this do? I can't find any documentation on this)

Any ideas of what I am doing wrong? The rest of my XBian install is pretty much default.
Toasts\notifications of other addons are updating fine.

Sorry, having absolutely no idea what you are meaning Huh

How can it be reproduced?

Kodi at RPi has to players, the first (and older) is OMXPlayer, the second and standard is DVDPlayer (and uses MMAL acceleration if enabled). OMXPlayer is build in firmware and requires license for MPEG2 and VC-1 codecs and does not support ALSA sound. But IMO playing videos more smoothly.

No, unfortunately no idea

I've no idea what "toast" is either (Apart from slightly burnt bread)

Have you looked in the kodi.log? There might be something there.

IMO this are the message boxes in the lower right corner of the screen

Well you are never too old to learn something new. Toast as in "pop up" from a toaster.
