Showtime PS3 Media Player v3.5.110 Changelog:
3.5.110-g843527f
ps3: Fix playback of 3.0 audio
Fixes #914
3.5.108-g6775194
ps3: Fix support for 4.0 audio channel layout
Fixes #886
3.5.105-ga4e10cc
ps3: Round timestamps to ms precision before feeding them to the SPU decoder
For some unholy reason the SPU decoder seems to hang when timestamps are not rounded to ms precision. I've no idea why.
Fixes #640
Fixes #662
Fixes #890
3.5.69-ga3159fe
PS3: Use jemalloc instead of newlib's malloc
Using jemalloc significantly reduces memory fragmentation and thus mitigates the out of memory conditions that happens now and then when using Showtime (in particular during movie playback)
It's also much more efficient than newlib's malloc thanks to per-thread caching of allocation and per-thread memory arenas
For more information about jemalloc, see http://http://www.canonware.com/jemalloc/
3.5.61-g6dfd6a5
Upgrade Showtime to use libav 0.8.1
This adds better support for multithreaded decoders and a lot of stability fixes.
For more details please see http://www.libav.org/releases/libav-0.8.release
3.5.55-g0d4a597
Upgrade Spotify integration to use libspotify 11
3.5.48-g43037d7
Add user setting for configuring the VDPAU deinterlacer (Linux only)
Please let me know. Thank you.
Thanks
This last update was great at first, I received a notification for a new version from inside the application, it downloaded and installed fine and all the bugs went away: the change views option returned and I got the lost channels back.
It is an excellent version... but after close it, every time I try to launch Showtime again I receive an error message. It runs fine from inside Multiman. I will try to delete it an reinstall it from scratch.
