LibreELEC (Omega) 12.0

  • Is it a recommended update for a RPi 3b?

    If you're on LE9.x currently I'd suggest experimenting with a different SD card first as there are differences (reduced support for HEVC and no 3D). If currently using LE10 or LE11 then just update.

  • Quick note: LE 12.0.0 is the first version in a while for which boot from USB on rPi4 is again working. Anyone who went back to TF card can return to USB/SSD.

    Thank you to the LE team for the work you do. Love it!

  • Hello,

    I have updated my Rockpi 4b from LE11.0.6 to LE12.0.0, and I have some issu with addons

    First I backuped my system and updated by clean install the LE12.0.0.

    After restoring the backup some addons stop working. Especially to "Mythtv PVR Client".

    I tested to reinstall this addon without suscess. Find below my log.

    Why the curl file is in https://addons.libreelec.tv/11.0.0/ARMv8/arm/pvr.mythtv/ and no in https://addons.libreelec.tv/12.0.0/ARMv8/aarch64/pvr.mythtv/

    Thank you for your help

    After aclean install, the addon "Mythtv PVR Client" can be installed, no issu.

    But after restoring the backup, the same probleme appears.

  • But after restoring the backup, the same probleme appears.

    Once you restore the LE11 (arm) backup on LE12 (aarch64) the restored binary add-ons aren't going to work as they are compiled for the wrong CPU architecture. This should eventually resolve itself when the LE11 add-ons self-update to compatible LE12 versions. In this scenario all you needed to do was update to LE12 and let add-ons udpate themselves, the clean install ahieved nothing.

  • just updated generic legacy from 11.0.6 to 12.0.0 - update finished, after reboot it shows a message addon tvhclient is not supported and will be disabled. it seeams kodi doesn't update the addon correctly. if i look into the addon repo, there is only the "old" version of the addons and not the new for omega installation. then i tried to download the addon manuelly via kodi website, but installation failed becuase of data structure error?? any ideas?


    tried a clean 12.0 install and everything works. now installed 11.0.6 again and restored my backup and tvh is working. so i will stay on 11.0.6 for now. i hope someone finds a solution for not updating the repos. it shows repo version 11.0 and not 12.0 on LE 12.0.0

  • On restart binary add-ons like Tvheadend are binary incompatible and will be marked bad (until they update). If you have an issue with the repo .. force refresh it.

  • i hope someone finds a solution for not updating the repos

    Increase Wait for network before starting Kodi in LE-Settings addon from the initial short 10 seconds to fit your needs. The repos are initially updated at startup (and periodically later).

    I recommend the max time you are willing to wait when no network is available.

  • In Estuary:

    Home > Add-ons > My Add-ons > navigate left so the view controls and filters are visible > Check for updates

    ah ok i already tried that, no luck. Repo seems to stuck on libreelec 11.0 and not 12.0


    just did a clean install and configured all my old settings.
