Pivos Xios DS vs LibreElec

  • I have an old Xios DS that is running kodi (linux) and its pretty slick albeit a bit slow. I am looking at this as a replacement. One thing it does very well is shut down and then come back up where you left off. For example, if you were in the middle of a movie and you simply power off, when you power back on, you are right back at the movie ready to hit play. Any chance that LibreELEC could implement something like this? I'll also say that the Xios boots in about 10 seconds which I also really enjoy.

    Just some ideas.
    Good work!

    Fast boot isn't usually an issue (unless you acquire something dog slow) but the power-off feature is "suspend" in Android land and getting that to work reliably over a broad selection of Linux devices is a fight we didn't pick yet. It may work on x86 devices which support low-power states, but none of the low-power arm stuff has an equivalent. In the future maybe, but not today.
