New Raspberry Pi firmware & XBMC Frodo RC3 - Koenkk - 5th Feb, 2013 12:16 AM
@dlysnes, then I guess that there is no problem

Hehe, yep @Koenkk
Just wondered if anyone else have experienced the same.

Team I updated to A5 all my media stuff works great, I do see xmbc crashes sometimes randomly and when streaming 720/1080p from the web(not from the samba share) xvmc freezes and crashes, but it does not restart. How we autorestart after the crash ?
Thanks in advance.

@adssoc
- Alpha 5 isn't out yet
- You should upgrade to XBMC 12 Final http://forum.xbian.org/showthread.php?tid=370

Yep I have upgraded following the instructions, I see following issues:
1) xmbc crashes sometimes randomly while streaming
2) When streaming 720/1080p from the web(not from the samba share) when try to FASTFORWARD xbmc freezes and crashes.
3) Need manually restart the xvmc *does not restart* automatically
Thanks in advance

@adssoc can you then try pre XBMC 13 builds? Guide: https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbmc-nightly/blob/master/README.md

Thanks updated to pre build 13 and Cec broke reverted back but still my remote does not work, as of now using web interface.

Thanks for this guys - happy to report MKV playback now a dream and no longer choppy!
After applying the PVR fix I got a couple of black screen lock outs in XBMC and then managed to lock the root filesystem which blocked the reboot, but after running fsck and hitting Y a few times its running like a dream, thanks guise!

Hello Guys
I upgraded to the "latest" (I think Alpha 5 = XBMC 12 Final) using the instructions in post one and now the CPU always shows between 90 and 100% Normally I do not bother but I am running squeezelite as well on this Pi. The cpu usage was less in Alpha 4 (XBMC 12 RCx).
Unfortunately squeezelite produces a light "zoom" (in dutch "brom") on my USB DAC. This zoom is only there when CPU reaches more than 80%. In xbmc RC the CPU usage was around 60 ~ 70 % so no zoom.
Is there any possibility to solve this high CPU usage when XBMC is idle?

Then something went wrong when upgrading. Please try again...

I already did that twice. I know you had the same issue. I have read your post somewhere. But unfortunately it didn't solve my issue.
Is there any possibility that I go back to the XBMC RC?
Maybe some git reset --hard xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx with a different magic number?
By the way what does this number mean?

That is the git commit hash, b4f08e78560b715709651639c5a3d47d190b66fc should bring you back to RC2, however we don't suppor that firmware/kernel and XBMC anymore.

@Koenkk
Do you have another suggestion?
RE: New Raspberry Pi firmware & XBMC Frodo RC3 - Koenkk - 13th Feb, 2013 03:50 AM
I can't understand why you have such a high cpu usage as it is normal here (and several other users confirmed this on IRC). Therefore I would suggest installing a fresh alpha 4 and use this guide: http://forum.xbian.org/thread-370.html .
RE: New Raspberry Pi firmware & XBMC Frodo RC3 - Killerbee - 13th Feb, 2013 04:20 AM
I see the Microsoft way.
Thanks
