Software Update: XBMC Media Center 13.2 RC 1

After three betas, the first release candidate of version 13.2 of XBMC Media Center has now been released. This cross platform media center software is developed for Windows, OS X, Linux, Android, iOS, AppleTV and the Raspberry Pi. Version 13.0, which has been codenamed Gotham, contains a large number of changes. For example, there are hardware decoding in Android and support for 3D material, and significant improvements have been made to the audio engine. Support for Windows XP has been dropped.
