Known issues that are expected to be present in XBMC v12.0 "Frodo".


==General==
{{warning|This page is no longer maintained. It mainly served as a quick "cheat sheet" of common issues that are asked about, but it was never a full list of known issues. Please see the '''bug tracker''' for a full list of formal bug reports.
*The current AFP client in XBMC is still the not-so-stable one from Eden. A replacement won't be ready for Frodo, but is planned.
*A minor cosmetic flaw, when a single TV show is created from more than one source path (like some seasons on hard drive A, other seasons on hard drive B) certain counts in the GUI (i.e., number of episodes) can be off. [http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/13513]


==Android==

*(Obviously) hardware playback for most devices
*No zeroconf/bonjour/service discovery support
 
==Linux general==
*Not actually an issue with XBMC, but AMD GPUs do not have proper drivers for HD-audio passthrough under linux.
 
==Mac OS X/iOS==
*gapless playback for music isn't working
*no AAC to AC3 transcoding, which means no multichannel support for AAC
*no HD audio passthrough support (currently seen as cannot fix due to Apple APIs)
*all sort of hickups during music track transitions (gets worse with activated crossfade)
*music output lacks audiophile support (output is resampled to the setting from audio midi setup for all tracks)
 
===Mac specific===
*some tools which adjust screen brightness may lead to lowfps (5fps frameratelimiting) in XBMC - we have covered some of them but there are a lot of more tools out there i guess (basically all tools which use a transparent fullscreen overlay)
 
===iOS specific===
*No 1080p video output for retina devices (resolution gets scaled down because of performance issues - solution is in sight for after frodo)
*ATV2 - We crash on startup when plexapp is installed (seems plexapp does something bad on their frappliance init)
*uppercased special characters with accents are shown as lowercase (when uppercase tag is used in the skin)
 
==Raspberry Pi==
*DVD ISO playback is not expected to work well
*Fast forward/rewind do not work yet, but "stepping" back/forward does work. In other words, the FF/RW buttons don't work on the On Screen Display, but you can go back and forward using left/right arrows (or whatever you [[keymap|map to stepping back/forward]]).
 
==Windows==
*AirPlay videos rotation is off if using hardware decoding [http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=149006]
*Windows screensaver and power saving mode kicks in when XBMC is not focused (independent of whether XBMC is playing a video or not)
