Libreelec update

megaprime421 · September 6, 2020 at 3:14 PM

hi, how can the raspbery pi 4b auto uptade libreelec ?

I have auto uptade enable and I tried rebooting the pi 3 times but nothing, there is a pop up notification saying that there is an available uptade on libreelec but it doesn't uptade . What can I do? I want a way to make the pi uptade itself and not transfer any imgs

Thanks for the time whoever read this thread

not sure, maybe the mirror you are updating from are is just dead slow so the download takes forever

you could enter pastekodi and post the url here, so we could have a look

Not working update auto or manual mode. Only refresh the screen. I run pastekodi command:

I'm a hungarian user, i set up all to hungarian language:
The "F\xc3\xa1jln\xc3\xa9v:" = "Fájlnév:" === "Filename:" in english.
But I don't think, the probllem is in the hungarian language settings, I think it is a coding promblem in unicode -> ascii conversion.

tozoli Please test Testing LibreELEC-settings addon · Issue #4547 · LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv · GitHub

tozoli · September 12, 2020 at 9:39 AM

Thanks a lot!

I try "Addon for LibreELEC 9.2".

After the install commands, thats all right!

The upgrade method shows warning message (in auto mode), I could upgrade the device.

I hope the next updates will be different automatically

**mglae** · September 12, 2020 at 6:38 PM

tozoli Thanks for testing. There is still the ascii string error in version 20200906 when notifying auto update.

The error should be fixed in 20200912. If you have the time please update the test addon, manually downgrade LibreELEC to 9.2.3, try the auto upgrade again and post links to kodi.log and kodi.old.log.

... and thx, to wait for network switch, i will use it!

Thanks for testing. Downgrade is not possible because the older release files are not available on the server. And yes, there should be a failure notification on manual download error.

For Generic i.e. the update file is listing LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-9.2.[0234].{tar|img.gz] on releases.libreelec.tv, but only LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-9.2.4.{tar|img.gz] are available.

Ping CvH.

Sorry, I don't have time to try older releases.

I have some backup files 9.3.2, 9.2.3, 9.2.4. with full settings (~100MB / backup).

If you have one RPI4, I'd love to send one (Where can i upload as private?).
