Upgrade

1st Official Post

    I have GostreamerG8 ( LibreElec / Linux) , currently running LibreElecKodi 16.1, albeit with Estuary Skin. I believe that this version of Kodi was compiled in Jan 2017.
    Now Kodi have announced the release of the Final version of Krypton (17.0), How can I upgrade to this version.
    Will this be automatic, or as a result of the LibreElec upgrade, when this becomes available.

    Seems as this is some s812 device, which has very poor support.

    Anyway you won't receive an automated update. Just see if you will find some build which contains a newer Kodi version and update manually.

    This might be helpful for s812 devices: thread-293.html

    This is the Spec of my device :- Doesn't seem too bad to me !! - version of LibreElec installed is 7.0

    So obviously not related to us....some "Linux v7.0 Operating System" doesn't mean it's LibreELEC. As long as I don't see a logfile from that thingy, I say it's not related to us.

    As I said. S812 which has poor support. Everything I said before still counts.
