I downloaded the flashable zip and flashed through recovery, dirty flash over my 4.2.2 custom ROM and it seems to be fine.
Although I'll probably do a clean flash when I'm not at work just to sooth my ocd.

TBH, don't record many videos so that issue isn't something that bothers me much.
How's the camera focus etc?

Does anyone here use an "OTG" USB stick with their N5 at all? I'm wondering what the best app is to read/copy files etc?

Nexus Media Importer (available on Apptoide if you're feeling skint)

Tried to sideload but getting a 'footer is wrong' error. Will wait for OTA before I screw it up

Yeah I use nexus media importer
No, it seems much better now. Nowhere near as much drain as before but I can't give you anything scientific!
Only in stability, reception is still the same otherwise.
Good choice on the ROM
I dunno if I prefer hover over the old halo yet, But I like how they are trying to keep it stock looking. Looking at iOS8 this morning hahahaha. I've had this reply thing for almost 2 years?
I know mate I had it on my N4, so much better on the N5, I actually really like Hover, i used to turn off Halo as it done my head in a bit, I think they have gone in the right direction with Hover.
New OTA out today as well, they have added some new bits and bobs.
Sadly I don't own a N5
My N4 is running it though but I gave that to the parents, So I have to wait for my HTC one to get it hopefully by the end of the week. Good to see theme engine has been put in, I just hope they don't disband per app colour completely. The thing I liked about halo is I could set up some apps in the halo app & quick swipe the bubble & have another app open straight away in floating mode, With Hover there isn't any option to do this apart from a active notification by long pressing it & selecting floating mode.
I used it a hell of a lot for multitasking more than the notification side of things. But I definitely like how they are styling things in these betas it is how I would expect Google to kinda do it.
Either way I wouldn't change from PA it has always been the most stable ROM for me, I don't like all kinds of clutter kinda how PACrom is although it is nice a ROM. Its more for people who likes to enjoy lots of options.

You should treat yourself to a n5 I don't think I'll be changing anytime soon but were see when android silver is released. But I'm sure you'll be more than happy with a One it's a great device. There is a port of the HTC one rom for the n5 but unfortunately it's bug ridden and the devs have stopped developing for it but hopefully they will start again as I do love the rom on the HTC one.
Yeah I did like a few things about it but on the whole I just ended up turning it off completely. I'm sure a few extra features will be implemented into hover soon.
I don't think I'll change roms either PA does it for me. Plus I use xposed framework and gravity box so extra little tweaks here and there from that is just right! I migh give miui a blast see how that fairs up. All this customisation on android is fantastic I do feel sorry for iOS users as they are missing out lol

I love my N5, one of my fav phones ever! Can't see me changing it for a while, and im a serial changer!
Updated to 4.4.3 there, Tap & Pay seems to be new in the options

I think Tap & Pay has been there a while, there's just no way to use it...

No update for me yet.
Had a few issues lately with signal. Where i'd have it but it wouldn't actually use it.

Yeah it has been. I just fired off another angry tweet to EE asking them to add support for the Nexus 5 to their Cash on Tap app.
