LibreELEC settings in Kodi

I'm using 32GB sd cards and didn't have such problems.

To eliminate app error one other option is to unpack img.gz file and write it with some other tool. Like Win32DiskImager, Rufus, ...

Did you even enable firewall in LibreELEC settings? There are 4 options: Custom/Off/Home/Public. Set to custom and it will be used on boot.

When you have rules set then save them with iptables-save

iptables-save > /storage/.config/iptables/rules.v4

After reboot they should be picked up.

You don't need to add anything to autostart.sh file because LCDd is service addon and starts automatically. You just need to set driver name in addon settings.

Very good

Enable debug in kodi, press blue key and check what you got in log.

Try using this one for blue button:

<m mod="ctrl">XBMC.RunScript(/storage/.kodi/userdata/turnon_keyboard.py)</m> -->    <!-- blue button, MCE My music -->

All 4 buttons from https://kodi.wiki/view/list_of_mce_remote_controls

<t mod="ctrl,shift">Notification(Key, Yellow, 3)</t> <!-- Yellow button -->
<m mod="ctrl">Notification(Key, Blue, 3)</m>         <!-- Blue button -->
<i mod="ctrl">Notification(Key, Green, 3)</i>        <!-- Green button -->
<e mod="ctrl">Notification(Key, Red, 3)</e>          <!-- Red button -->

You can't run such script directly because module xbmc is only available when running from kodi.

But you can run

kodi-send --action="RunScript(/storage/..../TurnOn.py)"

XBMC.RunScript can execute only python script I think. I think the best would be to rewrote above script to python. To copy file use How do I copy a file in Python? - Stack Overflow and for notification xbmc.executebuiltin('Notification.

Maybe something like

#!/usr/bin/python

import xbmc
from shutil import copyfile

copyfile('/storage/.kodi/userdata/bkpmaps/numbkeyboard.xml', '/storage/.kodi/userdata/keymaps/keyboard.xml')
xbmc.executebuiltin('Action(reloadkeymaps)')
xbmc.executebuiltin('Notification(Kodi Info, Keyboard Disabled, 7000, http://powerpi.de/wp-content/uploads/powerpi/powerpi_ambi_thumb_off.jpg)')

Could be. I used empty and it worked too Maybe noop is better (worth to check).

Quote

An empty action removes the corresponding mapping from default and parent keymaps

This is different from a "noop" action, which disables a button.

Did you installed LCDd addon? If not do it. Then edit file LCDd.conf in addon home folder /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/service.lcdd/.

If you run LCDd from command line you need to use path to config file

LCDd -f -c /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/service.lcdd/LCDd.conf

Default keyboard file is /usr/share/kodi/system/keymaps/keyboard.xml.

But I think all keys (or at least problematic ones) should be redefined to work this. Like

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<keymap>
<global>
<keyboard>
<blue>XBMC.RunScript(/storage/switch_keyboard.py)</blue>

<left></left>
<right></right>
<up></up>
<down></down>

<!-- and all other problematic keys -->

</keyboard>
</global>
</keymap>

and having python script to switch between keyboard files and execute reloadkeymap.

Maybe you could disable/enable USB port where Flirc is connected?

Follow How to enable and disable a USB port using the terminal in Linux Kernel Version 3.11.1 - Quora

For me this works

LibreELEC:~ # for device in $(ls /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/product); do echo $device; cat $device; done
/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-3/product
flirc
/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-5/product
STM32 Virtual ComPort
/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb1/product
xHCI Host Controller
/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb2/product
xHCI Host Controller

LibreELEC:~ # echo '1-3' > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usb/unbind

LibreELEC:~ # echo '1-3' > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usb/bind

Flirc is not IR device but keyboard if I'm not mistaken.

You can mount bind folder over.

Just copy new folder to (for example) /storage/emulationstation and then mount over

mount -o bind /storage/emulationstation /usr/config/emulationstation

If folders are not correct adjust them appropriately.
