It’s only been a couple of weeks since the first beta of XBMC 13 was release but here we are with beta 2. This build (which OpenELEC have already incorporated in their release) doesn’t have new features but it does have lots of bug fixes and makes XBMC a lot more stable. More info and the download links over at xbmc.org.

 

Fixes in this build:

* Subtitles for videos over http should now support the same subtitle functions supported by local media (Note: Certain subtitle issues will only be fixed when non-default skins provide updates. Other fixes are in the works.)

* Rockchip devices on Android will no longer cause XBMC to crash occasionally during playback

* PVR Programming Guide cleanups

* AudioEngine improvements to handling AC3 and DTS, as well as smarter handling in Android and intelligent EAC3 recognition

* Crash on exit should be fixed on various platforms

* JSON-RPC file listing fixes

* DXVA fixes in Windows for older Intel GPUs

* Wording and grammar fixes throughout the UI
