apart from that I only notice a couple of very minor nit-picks :-

1) The time syncs after xbmc has loaded (maybe about 15 seconds after the gui appears, but during my scan for new media)
2) Audio starts playing about a second before the video appears - everything is in sync, you just don't see the first second of video.

@Paul

2 - if you are syncing (hz) to video (fps) this is due the TV changing resolution. you can set "pause video for xy ms" during video screen resolution change.

1 - there are few solutions - depending on your usage pattern.
- XBian restores 'fake' clock (time saved during shutdown/reboot) early in the boot. if you don't turn your RPI off, this 'wrong time will be max 1m behind the real
- If you ARE turning RPI off for days, this can be issue but - I use setting where Date added to the library is time of file creation on local filesystem, not time at Library update. So it would become irrelevant again. Last option is to wait with XBMC - ugly - without network XBMC won't start. By what add-on/app are you updating the lib? or just you checked update upon start ?

@Paul

we are aware that accessing sub-volumes for what ever reason is triggering this info window. Unfortunately we have no simple solution until now - if I don't consider hard patching of XBMC code. so somehow this is still under consideration - waiting for external know how

last resort is patching which I'm a bit against. much work and commitment for updates for little benefit. let's see.

Thanks for the info - I didn't think about looking through video settings within xbmc - I'll have a play with those.

I'm just updating library on boot with the standard option, no extra addons - everything seems to work fine though, it's just different to pre beta 2 where the time was right on boot.

The btrfs message is no problem - I thought it was just me at first until I had a look at the daily cron jobs.

Cheers
