Showtime PS3 Media Player v3.5.72 Changelog:

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
