Yeah
I updated yesterday to alpha 4 and now using this method
I can confirm that the gray blocks are now gone when skipping vids 
Woop! On a sidenote: it seems to me (as a enduser) that the project is going ahead at a good steady pase, is it maybe usefull to built a system that notifies of updates (maybe a cronjob that checks every x hours and sends a xbmc notification?) since for me it was a bit of coincidence that I saw on the frontpage that alpha 4 whas available

We are working on those functions...

Nice one
If there is need to do translations to Dutch I can help
I'm not much of a programmer (except SH scripts) but I'd like to give back
RE: New Raspberry Pi firmware & XBMC Frodo RC3 - CurlyMo - 7th Jan, 2013 07:49 AM
Most of the crew is Dutch, so if you can speak other languages...
RE: New Raspberry Pi firmware & XBMC Frodo RC3 - gizag - 7th Jan, 2013 07:53 AM
Lawl
My French and German are really sucky Obviously English, but I guess most of the crew also speaks that

Hey guys
I just tested this now. Installation went well, but the problem with choppy playback on old sd movies (Packed B frames issue) persists.
It plays choppy for about one minute, then stops.
Output of vcgencmd version:
xbian@xbian:~# vcgencmd version

I can't believe how fast you guys keep pushing out the new updates.
Thanks a million for the excellent work you guys do.
Cloning the git,can't wait to try it out.
Edit: So far it's working great.
The Xbian version still says 1.0 a4,is this normal?

Yep. XBian versions and XBMC versions are separate. XBian 1.0a4 is based on a December 13 RC1 build of XBMC.

Unfortunately, it breaks the MediaPortal Live TV Add-on:
"23:30:07 T:2967741504 ERROR: PVR - Add-on 'MediaPortal PVR Client' is using an incompatible API version. XBMC minimum API version = '1.6.0', add-on API version '1.5.0'"
1080p videos appear to be playing without buffering via nfs, though I've only previewed about 2 minutes of a movie.
RE: New Raspberry Pi firmware & XBMC Frodo RC3 - eth0 - 7th Jan, 2013 07:21 PM
I'm still on A3, should I upgrade to A4 before doing this? I noticed I have no /opt/xbian directory..
RE: New Raspberry Pi firmware & XBMC Frodo RC3 - Koenkk - 7th Jan, 2013 07:40 PM
@doug I'm going to recompile the PVR Addons, will notify when they are ready.
@eth0, upgrading to a4 is recommended.
RE: New Raspberry Pi firmware & XBMC Frodo RC3 - Handaloo - 7th Jan, 2013 07:58 PM
Worked a treat as always
Thanks guys! Loving the lack of grey blocks when skipping!
RE: New Raspberry Pi firmware & XBMC Frodo RC3 - eth0 - 7th Jan, 2013 08:31 PM
Thanks Koenkk. I went A3 > A4 >A5 without any issues and everything appears fine in terms of skipping through movies.
RE: New Raspberry Pi firmware & XBMC Frodo RC3 - CurlyMo - 7th Jan, 2013 08:33 PM
Please notice that this isn't version Alpha 5 yet. Just a way for you guys to try our new features / updates.
RE: New Raspberry Pi firmware & XBMC Frodo RC3 - Handaloo - 7th Jan, 2013 09:34 PM
Anybody know why the following command isn't working for me?
vcgencmd version
-bash: vcgencmd: command not found
?
