LibreELEC-RR [ Brave | Spotify | Moonlight | Emulationstation | Retroarch | Pegasus ]

depending on your actual device you have to enable NON_FREE_PKG_SUPPORT at https://github.com/SupervisedThin…x11/options#L53 and rebuild the whole package. Due to Microsofts licensing it's not legally allowed to ship prebuild images with their binary.

This kernel module could be interesting too but wireless support is still wip https://github.com/medusalix/xone

I just made a new image with XOW. Works perfect. Thanks for your job

I picked up a Nvidia 1030GT that I thought I would throw in my LE box as I’m enjoying your work on the emulation stuff.

I seem to be in a boot loop with the gfx card installed. Any clever souls have any suggestions as to why this is happening? I know Nvidia isn’t supported on vanilla LE but the wiki for LE RR does show that the drivers are in the build (unless I’m mistaken?)

hi, i tried your image and it works fine with makemkv for Blue-Ray and UHD 4K Blu-Ray

i have only 2 Issues

1. Audio Pass Thorough with Thrue HD not work (this worked in older Images from 5Schatten or Escalade)

2. with the BD-UHD-4k Movies, there only show the english and japanese audiotracks, all other audio tracks are unknown,

i hope you or someone can help to fix this issues

the Audiolanguages from the Blue-Rays are showing correctly

only from 4k UHD-Blue-Rays is this issue

i compiled the newest makeMKV, too

this issue i had in previouse images, too

only in one image from "Escalade" 8.25 it worked

Update:
I Added an norml Log and an detailed Log (Kodi.txt)

at the bottom from the kodi.txt you can see, that i changed more Times the Autiotracks,

i think that the Tracks not named , so i think i need the msgctxt "#Number" for the Tracks and than i can input it in the

.kodi/addons/resource.language.de_de/resources/strings.po

File

i don't know if it will fix the issue, and i don't know, how i can find out the msgctxt #Number for the Audiotracks

?!?!?

does anyone have an idea?

I'm liking this OS mod so far. Only issue is I haven't been able to install docker addon and can't tell if it's the OS mod or why I haven't had success.

Is there any way to get Xbox emulation through Xemu into your RR?

Well I have no clue which version you're actually using so 10.0 or master & I have no clue where is stated that Nvidia isn't supported. Both LibreELEC branches, so 10.0 & master, SHOULD have working Nvidia configurations. So post details & logfiles. If your system reboots try to prevent this by running:

touch /storage/.config/safemode.disable

In a ssh terminal.

Apologies I should have given you more information.

I read that Nvidia cards were not supported in LibreElec and then when my card wasn't recognised I made the assum- ption...and we know where that gets you - has gotten me in fact.

I was using the x86-64-ve (SSE4) LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-10.0-RR-20211104-75af1a0.img.

Should I have used the master version then? My CPU supports SSE4 hence me using that version. I haven't got any log files yet but will do in the next day or two.

Thanks for all your hard work with LibreElec RR too.

Some updates on issues I had encountered:

Quote from Cillit

Hi there,

I don't think this is a moonlight issue. I did a little bit of research in the forum and it seems like the global resolution is now configured with cmdline.txt, which also has a new syntax. I tried different options, but had no sweeping succuess, yet.

I tried

Code

video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080@60D

and

Code

drm.edid_firmware=HDMI-A-1:edid/edid-HDMI-A-1.bin video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080D

but it didn't work. A hint from this thread:

Post

RE: LE 10 RPi2 nightly: no hdmi output

you are right. the cmdline.txt was wrong.

i have -restarted the configuration procedure

first i had deleted the wrong entries (this was the default entry for my rpi2)

LibreELEC:~ # cat /flash/cmdline.txt

boot=UUID=1107-2955 disk=UUID=27ea94ba-c897-4e07-942f-594aaf01c537 quiet

then i had recreated the edid file

LibreELEC:~ # getedid create

successfully installed edid override for HDMI-A-1

after that the cmdline was modified by the getedid command

LibreELEC:~ # cat /flash/cmdline.txt

boot=UUID=1107-2955…

made me try:

Code

drm.edid_firmware=HDMI-A-1:edid/1920x1080.bin video=HDMI-A-1:D

This finally worked, no more tearing and exellent streaming quality, but it killed CEC and HDMI audio, also the picture is slightly darker.

Maybe there is a better solution.

Edit: Yes its a Rpi4.

There seems to have been a fix for the streaming issues in the moonlight side of things.

I build the current LibreELEC-RR master and with this, only cmdline.txt is edited in this way:

video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080M-32@60:mD

The moonlight user interface is still 4k, but the actual streaming works fine with the proper moonlight options selected. So CEC and HDMI audio are working with this.

I also could't use my USB audio card, the channels got mixed up while using moonlight. I had a look at the moonlight starting process which starts udev-detect and it selects the correct audio sink accordingly to the rr-config.tool settings. While starting the udev-detect module works, the audio sink didn't, it would always fall back to a stereo failsafe sink.

I could workaround this with creating a system.d service file with the following content:

[Unit]
Description=Moonlightaudio
After=moonlight-qt.service

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/bin/pactl set-default-sink alsa_output.usb-0d8c_USB_Sound_Device-00.analog-surround-51
Restart=always
RestartSec=3

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

While this works for me greatly, there might be a better way of doing this.

I looked at musalix's xone https://github.com/medusalix/xone - there is an experimental branch with the wireless support. But to be honest, I can't prepare the package.mk for that. Is there any chance you will take a look into it? Or anyone else is welcome

update: it seems like I figured out the package.mk. I just need to add a firmware and it's gonna be ready. I will post it here if you don't mind, maybe someone would be interested

I hope I don't break some rules posting the package url like this. I'm not even sure if the package.mk is correctly written, but it somehow works. Feel free to check and if there is something wrong tell me please.

hi, thank you for this great image!

trying to get snes & n64 running but all my games have heavy stuttering, this is on rpi4 on a 4k screen.

what can I do to make this better? controller support & everything else is perfect! thank you!

Hi,

to get a smooth SNES experience I changed the emulator form snes9x to snes9x2010. I wasn't able to do this

from within Retroarch, so I just changed a line in es_systems.cfg from

<command>/usr/bin/retroarch.start -L /tmp/cores/snes9x_libretro.so %ROM%</command>

to

<command>/usr/bin/retroarch.start -L /tmp/cores/snes9x2010_libretro.so %ROM%</command>

However, while the performance with snes9x2010 is great, emulation crashes if I load savestates. Saving normally from within the game(s) seems to work reliably.

N64 emulation is a different story and heavily depends on the game. While Mario 64 runs at a playable framerate with low resolution (640*480), games like Goldeneye have much more problems. You can try some different core settings and experiment a bid or you vistit the retropie wiki and look up which settings have an effect on performance. Personally I haven't found settings yet, if its possible, that run the game close to or at original performance.

What iam doing wrong? I burn the img with BalenaEtcher and it wont boot. If i try other roms like recalbox or libreelec, it starts.... please help

greets Anta

Apologies if this has been gone over, I can't seem to edit the es_systems.cfg file. I'm sure I'm missing something, I've tried editing permissions on the file, to no avail. I simply want to add .rvz to the extensions for dolphin to avoid having to convert and copy the files over again. Although in the time I've wasted trying to edit, I probably could have. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi, I'm trying to build the actual Libreelec-RR master branch for RPi4.

This fails during the build of qt5, with the following error message:

"Error parsing JSON at 1:1 : illegal value

Project ERROR: Invalid or Non-existing file" and then it specifies the path.

The failed command is : ${PKG_BUILD}/configure ${PKG_CONFIGURE_OPTS_TARGET}

Hey, thank you for the updated build. I think my build environment is faulty, I'll try again with another system.

Sadly there might be a problem with the current master build. Kodi crashes everytime if a addon is switched, for example if I go from a Youtube video to Netfix, or Twitch. This happens with nearly every addon. As far as I can see this might be a known python regression, referenced here:

Describe the bug Kodi is crashing when switching from an addo-on to another, in this case it&#39;s either Netflix plugin or Tubed. I only tested with these…

So I would recommend not to update to master-rr till this is resolved.
