Despite the GDPR, it should never have been enabled in the first place. It's a shame that sharing personal information with a third party without consent first requires a law to be stopped.

It would be more helpful for other people if you would tell us what the problem was and how you ended up fixing it.

Can anyone clarify me on the continuation of this image 8.2.2.3. I s it discontinued?

How much additional clarification do you need with the word "DISCONTINUED" in the first post?

Thanks for the clarification, my NFS share is working fine with high bitrates uhd files. Also ntfs disk is working fine and since I have a 8tb hdd I don't I can back up to reformat as ext3 or any other format. Is there a way to fix this without ?

At this point, with all the explanations given, it should be clear that you're hitting the limitations of your box and that there's nothing left but simply accepting it. Any further discussion for a workaround or solution (different box, how to create a backup, how to reformat, etc.) would be beyond the scope of this thread and largely up to your imagination.

Sorry, I do not agree.

The main goal of the Open-source community is to provide support for everything for free and, usually, in their free time. Thousands and thousands of drivers have been made by the community for years, from the very beginning a new hardware is out in the street till nobody, but the deveoloper, uses them, doing reverse engineering, somehow overriding and patching whatever similar libraries are found, etc. Never mind, against all odds! That's the spirit!! Laughing at huge enterprises which only provide (sometimes quite poor and crappy) Windows (and/or Mac) opaque support! (Nowadays, this has mainly evolved to cheap and crappy little brief companies/chips/devices with Android support).

Another completely different war is to battle Kodi logos and trademarks in those chinese devices you say, believe me, and that is nothing related to this issue.

Anyway, do not blame a child for whatever his father or ancestors did to you.

That's quite a naïve and unrealistic view of things.

Hardly any of the bigger and serious open source projects (Linux, Firefox, My/PostGreSQL to name not nearly enough) would not have been even a fraction of what they are now if all the developers would have done it in their spare time, for free. Even a project with a million spare time developers would need management, and that can become a full time job pretty quick.

Without [email protected] backing of some sort achieving your(/our) ideals is simply not possible.

Besides essential, there's nothing wrong with [email protected] backing either. As long as it does not get in the way of the initial ideals.

And no, the main goal of open source is not to provide everything for free. Not the product, not the support. It's too provide something open. It being free is only a bonus.

Execute this command when your TV is turned on:

Code

1. cat /sys/class/amhdmitx/amhdmitx0/disp_cap > /storage/.kodi/userdata/disp_cap

Works like a charm, many thanks!

One inconvenience I would like to overcome would be the fact that I have to switch on the TV before turning on the KIII Pro. If not the screen will just stay completely black, even though Kodi works fine in the background (streaming through DLNA).

Is there a way to force HDMI (1080p) output to prevent this? I don't suppose this is some default available Kodi setting, but rather some sort of config for the box (if existing at all).

Anyone got a clue?

please tell me

how to open the channel list with the button ОК?

I installed keymap editor , but there is no button OK

Thank you

This is a Kodi specific thing and therefore off-topic here. Wrong forum even. Try the Kodi forum.

I've been happily using the builds provided in this forum for a while now and I can't complain in terms of performance and stability.

Is it possible to change "Favourites" view? Like list view or smth like that.

Completely off-topic and wrong forum. Try it in the Kodi forum itself.

Let Me Google That

Quote from ErsFreezy

Have anyone an idea how I can set the energysave (I dont know thats right im german -Energiesparen-) settings in Settings->Energysave and activate the suspend mode? I cant set this because its grey.

Try
[8.2.1.2] LibreELEC 8.2 for S912

But it is considered unreliable, with different results on different devices. Some not properly waking up anymore. Hence it being disabled by default. If you break your system you get to keep both halves.

Quote from yummy_yum

Yeah, WD Elements 3,5" with own power supply.

Then the only thing left, before you will get any further help to begin with, would be remove and stop using any add-ons that allow you to either download or stream illegal content. Provide a log after that if the problem persists.

Hi, I have a problem with H96 Pro Plus and 8.2.1.1 version of this build.

After a day or two, the device simply freezes and only solution is pulling the power adapter from the device. I have two external disks connected, so it really sucks to do "hard shutdown", because I cannot unmount them properly.

I have tried to look inside Kodi log and journalctl, but there is nothing which could help me to see what was the cause of problem.

At first, I thought it was Sabnzbd since I was downloading 50+ GB files, but in last few days I didn't download anything and problem is still here.

What should I do? Downgrade to lower version of this build?

Any help is appreciated

With two external harddrives I sure hope they have their own power supply, or a powered hub between them and your box. You're asking for trouble if not.

Quote from numbqq

I'm using kszaq 's LE repo GitHub - kszaq/LibreELEC.tv: 'Just enough OS' for Kodi, build LE for Khadas VIM2 with Amlogic S912. But found that I can't suspend or hibernate the system, when I press POWER key the system just ShutDown, and I found that I can't change Shutdown function in System settings->Power saving->Shutdown function.

So how can I suspend or hibernate the system?

Thanks

Try enabling sleep mode to see if it works for your box. It doesn't work (properly) for all boxes, hence it isn't enabled by default. If it works for you you will basically have a fake suspend as in android, as power off from Android is not really a power off either. I have never tried it myself so I can't tell you when the wake-up will fire off exactly.

read carefully

I talked about installing img.gz

and you are talking about tar

I repeat once

LibreELEC-S912.arm-8.90.8-K.img.gz can not be installed

There's nothing to read carefully about your post. You are giving us zero information about your situation nor what the problem is and, even though you don't bother to actually type a question, I assume you expect us to help you any way. While afl1, kszaq and others are performing magic for us, not they, nor the rest of us are clairvoyant. If you expect us to be helpful you'd need to provide the context (device, medium) and state what is not working at which moment, this together with a shiny log if possible and relevant.

Yes it can.
