daggs · stuttering with LE 11 daggs March 10, 2023 at 9:23 AM

Greetings,

I know it is not supported in general but I'd be happy to hear some ideas on my issue.
I'm running LE11 on kvm with the gpu (intel HD 630) as pass-through.

LE 10.x worked without an issue, after the upgrade to 11, I get stuttering every few seconds.

the entire system feels like that.
is there any pkg update that might cause this?

I did't tried factory reset thought.
looking at top in the vm, I don't see the cpu above 50% usage and the ram is less that 10% usage.

in the host, the process's usage is not demanding so looks like it is something in the os.
one thing I found, I have a cdrom that I see under /dev but the entry in the side menu doesn't exists.

ideas?

Thanks.

Quote from vpeter

What about if you post this problematic subtitle file and someone can replicate the issue?

it's not one file, every file I get using the opensubtitles addon has these issues.

however, subtitles in netflix are displayed ok

Quote from mglae

Subtitle font selection is at Settings -> player settings -> language. You have to use Expert Level.

not under settings->interface->fonts?

I'm using LE 10

mglae,

thanks for the info, I was looking in the wrong place!

kodi restart is enough? if so, it didn;t worked, I fave no change in the num of entries (2, default and ariel based)

daggs

I've actually looked, didn't found anything meaningful, thanks for the link

btw, the proposed fix in the link didn't worked, see:

Code

LibreELEC:~ # ls -l /storage/.kodi/media/Fonts
total 22732
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root      23275812 Aug 26 00:24 Arial Unicode MS.TTF

as mentioned before, I've saw this thread, the reason I didn't tried it is because the folder didn't existed, I've assumed that if it doesn't exists, than the functionally was move elsewhere and I didn't found such location

daggs

can you point me to a doc where it is explained how to add a new font?

Quote from Klojum

Try selecting the Arial font, it contains more charsets than the default font.
Which country language is involved?

Greetings,

tried that too, no dice.
the language in question is hebrew.
I'm using the opensubtitles addon but in netflix, subtitles look ok

daggs

Greetings,

I've encountered a strange issue with subtitles, for some reason, the text is not displayed as letters, but as unrecognizable chars.

the issue persists when I select the other encoding possible.

I'm running LE 10RC1 on x86_64.

it worked on LE9.x

has anyone encountered such issue?

Thanks,

Dagg

looks like it and issue with the emulation, I'll mark it as invalid

it looks like a config issue

Greetings,

I've tried to upgrade my le inside my kvm from 9.2.6 to 10, after upgrade, there is not relevant entry for hdmi audio anymore.

with pa, I can see only the bluetooth disabled output, with alsa, only the O/B card.

it seems to me that something is missing here, any ideas?

I'm using this device: USB - HDMI-CEC Adapter

Thanks,

dagg

daggs · VM - Intel GVT-D / UPT support? daggs July 3, 2021 at 8:03 AM

GVT-D is needed if you want to share the igp with the host and the guest.

if I understand you correctly, you want to pass the entire device, so GVT-D is not needed

daggs · upgrading to le10 on vm daggs July 3, 2021 at 7:59 AM

Greetings,

I'm running LE9.x inside kvm, from what I understand, it is highly recommended to install LE10 rather than upgrade.

however, I'd rather no start handling images and loop devs.

so I thought of entering my LE via ssh, stop kodi, rm .kodi, place the new image in the update folder and reboot the setup

will that work?

when it gets to glibc, I get this error:

any ideas how to solve it?

daggs · ui edges are cut daggs September 9, 2020 at 1:27 PM

so apparently, I has just scan set for the rear hdmi jack but not the side.

after setting the side one to just scan, all is well.

thanks for the help.

Quote from HiassofT

On LG TVs the option to disable overscan is called "Just Scan" - read here for more info: LG TV Wrong Picture Size or Aspect Ratio | LG USA Support

so long,

Hias

will look into it, thanks.

Quote from Klojum

Why? Do you think the cable is too thin for the TV image, and that you are now have cut edges?

simple. I'd assume the jacks are ok both, if I replace pc with the streamer, it works well
