    Loseless Audio: have these options disabled under system - audio - disable DTS-HD and TrueHD else you'll get nothing but static. DTS-MA files will passthrough as DTS and TrueHD files will be in stereo

    Why are you even posting that if your sig says you wont help ppl root? because you think you're cool? LMFAO

    I wish reading comprehension was focused on more in today's educational establishments. Let me help you with that.

    Do NOT email me asking for help rooting your device.

    The "Do Not email me" part indicates I don't wish to receive email on the subject.

    I posted an image, because I am preparing the package for release right now.

    *edit*
    I see you edited your original rude comment,

    Why post that if your sig says you wont help ppl root =/ its a slap in the face!

    No, slap in the face is the entitlement and rudeness I get from people like you, simply because I don't want personal emails on a subject that could be handled with a PM, or a public forum post.

    Instead of waiting for me to finish a releasable, easy to use exploit for it (which I am working on from my hotel room right now), you decide to jump on me for a simple request regarding email in my signature.

    @OP

    Please use SPMC 12.4.2 ( http://filez.semperpax.com/5r4ln85l ) instead of 12.3.3 if a Frodo build is preferred for XBMC.
    12.4.x is based on Frodo 12.3 and fixes a nasty video decoding bug.

    [EDIT]
    Also, to avoid confusion, it's probably best to remove the reference to "XBMC on Ouya". It's basically the same as SPMC 12.3.3 (which was created because Ouya had to remove DTS/AC3 decoding due to licensing), so superseded by SPMC 12.4.2, too.
