New in LibreElec

    Hello All,

    I hope that you all are fine. I'm new in LibreElec and I have more difficult to install/configure LibreElec ...

    CONTEXT :

    I put in an USF flash drive, LibreElec (with the software "LibreELEC.USB-CD.Creator.Win32.exe".

    I boot in the USB flash drive in this computer : HP EliteDesk 800 G2 (mini 35W), for install LibreElec in a SSD. This step was a succes.

    But after, to configure LibreElec : installs differents addons (don't work correctly), youtube keep the old API configs while I reset the parameters (force uninstall, reinstall), when I want reboot LibreElec, my computer print nothing, just a black screnn (so I turn Off the computer and restart manually), etc.

    I want to clarify that LibreElec is installed on its own on the SSD, not with windows or with Linux distribution.

    WHAT I WANT SO ? :

    I don't think I apply / have a "good practice" on the start of these installations. Before going any further, I would therefore like to be able to learn about the most vital things for a good start to LibreElec functioning.

    QUESTIONS :

    - Is it necessary to install a linux distribution next to LibreElec (for updates, etc)? I was just thinking of installing LibreElec on the computer.

    - The fact there's no linux distribution and so no GRUB, so that explain maybe why when I reboot from LibreElec, it's dont work ?

    - Concerning the Addons, I think first, install an Addon for have TV channels. Do you have any addons names for me? Thank you


    Thank you for your help, I see that there are a Wiki... I will check in this if I find my answers.

    thank you in advance for your help :) .(sorry for my terrible english)

    The HP EliteDesk 800 G2 is a quite a generic name tag of an almost 7 year old computer release. Any chance of telling us which exact hardware and graphics solution is in your G2 ?

    No, LibreELEC has its own built-in update system. I personally do have Ubuntu as the main OS because of its convenience, and install LibreELEC manually onto 2 separate partitions and via GRUB2.

    LibreELEC not working can be because of lots of reasons. If it runs well after the first install, and not after a reboot, that would be weird and will require further investigation.

    TV Channels can be obtained via basically 2 ways, official and illegal. We will not help you with the latter one.
