Thanks a lot Sam, you have done a fantastic job. Really enjoying the OSMC experience on my raspberry pi2. Keep up the good work. Hope you having a great festive season. Cheers Gary
Wish you and your team also a Happy New Year
and about the update just awesome.
Season’s greetings to you and your team and thanks for all the hard work…
Thanks a lot 
I updated yesterday without any problems. Everything works fine on my RPI2.
GREAT JOB ! ! !
I wish you a happy new year!
Greetings

@sam_nazarko I think you made the boot time too fast! 
I have some scripts I launch from rc.local. After this upgrade, I noticed they now fail with network problems. I guess it has something to do with network state when rc.local is triggered (i.e. must now launch before network connection is ready, while this was never a problem before). Anyways, solved this by undoing your good work by putting in a manual delay sleep 10,
Thanks for the update!!
Can you share more about the performance tunables for the Pi 1 and 2? Thanks.
Performance tunables are now definable at a per-device level as well as the existing OSMC userland level. This means that we can set some global tunables and override them specifically for Pi 1 and Pi 2 depending on the device for some more fine tuned workloads.
Cheers

Thanks.
Is there documentation anywhere that shows what these tunables are? Eager to start playing around with configs.
rc.local is not synchronised to the network going up in any way - on my systems rc.local has always run before the network is up. It waits until the network manager starts, but not for the network to actually go up.
If you want to run services after the network is up your best option is to enable “wait for network” in the networking GUI, then create a systemd service to run your scripts, and specify:
After=network-online.target
Wants=network-online.target
In the [Unit] section of the service.
Another option is you could change rc.local to not run until the network is up by creating a file called /etc/systemd/system/rc-local.service.d/local.conf and adding only these lines in it:
[Unit]
After=network-online.target
Wants=network-online.target
This will delay all scripts run by /etc/rc.local until the network is up, or after a 60 second delay if the network never comes up.
@DBMandrake this is very interesting - thanks for sharing! 
I did not think rc.local was synchronized to the network status. It’s just that the boot time sequencing always worked out before (by luck, I suppose), and immediately after the December update the scripts failed every time with network errors. So the boot timing must have changed, at least on my Pi (i.e. the network is now coming up later than it was before)?
Slowing down rc.local with sleep=10 “solved” the problem. But obviously that is an ugly hack, so I will gladly try your suggestions in order to learn something new.
Just a note- the update to Samba required keyboard input during configuration, but I don’t have a keyboard or easy physical access to the Pi. I had to SSH in and run apt-get upgrade and then do the update through OSMC. I was afraid to run dist-upgrade on its own.
It’s a know issue that surfaced in the last couple of days
Nice!
However, I already had problems with Airplay before (irregularities when playing music, dropped connections, etc.), but now it doesn’t play anything anymore! For me, Airplay was the most important feature of OSMC/Kodi, so I was hoping it would work flawlessly when I decided not to go for an AppleTV.
Please start a new thread. Did you update your iOS? You should check the OSMC Wiki for iOS compatibility info
