FIX: LE v9.0 - ODROID-C2 - Hyperion - Videograbber does not get startet by start-script

Hi!

Operating System: LibreELEC (community): nightly-20190125-2cc1b2b (Odroid_C2.arm)

Hardware: Hardkernel Odroid-C2

uname -a:

Linux --- 3.14.29 #1 SMP Fri Jan 25 09:50:05 CET 2019 aarch64 GNU/Linux

When installing Hyperion (v9.0.108) as an addon in kodi on LibreELEC 9.0, the start-script does not start the hyperion-aml internal video grabber.

This results in not having screen updates sent to hyperion and therefore no working ambilightning.

For me, the following addition to /storage/.kodi/addons/service.hyperion/bin/hyperiond.start at the end of the file resolved the problem:

Code

# for odroid-c2
#
if lsmod | grep "amlvideodri" &> /dev/null ; then
  echo "amlogic video driver detected"
  exec hyperion-aml &
else
  echo "NO amlogic video driver detected"
fi

hope, this helps

Please try the latest image 8.95.3 and see if the problem still exists. If so:

Please provide a full debug log.

How to post a log (wiki)

1. Enable debugging in Settings>System Settings>Logging
2. Restart Kodi
3. Replicate the problem
4. Generate a log URL (do not post/upload logs to the forum)

use "Settings > LibreELEC > System > Paste system logs" or run "pastekodi" over SSH, then post the URL link

Well, the fix to this problem was easy to see. It's working on my system and the fix is included in my posting. I just wanted someone from the LE-team to know about this, so it might get fixed in the sources, too.

On github it's this file here:
