LibreELEC (Leia) 9.2.3

**HiassofT** · June 5, 2020 at 8:40 PM

Mario77 it's very puzzling that a fresh install of 9.2.3 worked but then failed after restoring the backup.

Could you try installing 9.2.3 fresh again and then ssh in and post the output of

Code

journalctl -a | pastebinit
cat /proc/cpuinfo | pastebinit

Also try using 9.2.3 with stock configuration for a bit (eg play local media, reboot) and see how that works.

Testing with another SD card may also be worth a try, maybe the one you were using is starting to fail (that would explain why boot failed after restoring backup).

so long,

Fresh install works fine..but if I update from 9.2.1 it doesn't start...

journalctl

cat /proc/cpuinfo

@DennisHilhorst post #8 got same issue as me.

As this is NOT the area to gripe about issues, I'd just like to thank everyone responsible for this software. The update went flawlessly on both my NUC and Rpi3B setups.

Thanks for the info - nothing unusual in the logs, except you voided warranty due to overclocking

Have you tried updating 9.2.1 with stock config.txt? There were quite a lot overclocking/overcurrent settings in there...

It would be good to rule out any issues that could be caused by overclock, marginal power supply or dying SD cards (which still are the most common issues with RPi).

Also some more testing with your stock 9.2.3 installation would be interesting.

Just installed 9.2.3 over 9.2.2 and its fixed X265 issues I had with tearing, its also fixed the x265 OSD menu black screen and jumping issues I had

everything else seems to just feel smoother.

LE 9.2.3 ships with the May 27 RPi firmware which has initial support for USB boot.

Note however that RPi4 USB boot is in early beta testing stage and you also need the beta bootloader EEPROM update which is not included in LE.

So while it may be possible to boot LE 9.2.3 from USB (it worked for me with the LE SD card in a USB cardreader) it's not something we support ATM or even encourage you to try.

If you run into issues it's best to test with the Raspberry Pi OS (former Raspbian) instead of LibreELEC - chances are high that there are issues with several USB devices/adapters. Check the instructions in the USB boot thread on the RPi forum USB-MSD boot EEPROM update - 2020-05-28 - Raspberry Pi Forums and report issues there.

Sd card in an usb reader will that faster boot up LE instead of sd card in the sd slot?

Issue is over voltage

Cannot be set higher then

Code

 over_voltage=3

from =4 upwards LE 9.2.3 doesn't start..at least mine..on RPi2.

overclock settings don't matter..tried a few and they all work..

Thanks..

As referred to earlier in this thread here - LibreELEC (Leia) 9.2.3 - the bulk of the Raspberry Pi 4B improvements won't kick in until LE10 when LE are able to switch to a new codebase and kernel.

Still same.

I did upgrade to 9.2.3 on my pi4 without issues.

Probably not, because USB enumeration will take a bit. I haven't done any speed / time tests, just checked if my USB2 SD card reader (which probably isn't too fast anyways) worked.

I like say thanks for our great work.

It works great

Ive never had tearing in the menus in any builds, so cant comment.

If just installed the newest update un my Raspberry Pi 2.

After the installation, the system went out/black/no power...

When I shut down the power and reconnect it, it tried to startup, but after a few seconds it went out again.

Who has the same problem or knows how to solve it !?

BR, Dennis

Hi Dennis

If you'r overvolting set it to over_voltage=3 or lower and it should boot up normally.

i’ll try milhouses testbuilds for rpi4 then.

I've found an issue with over_voltage=4 (or higher) on Pi2.
Can you test this firmware
Unzip and replace http://start.elf/fixup.dat on boot partition with start_x.elf/fixup_x.dat from zip file.
Let me know if over_voltage=4 starts to work again.

I will try if it work and if it is faster...
