  • configure dns with dhcp enabled

    for anyone else that might encounter that:

    Code
    1) list services to get the service name:
LibreELEC:~ # connmanctl services
*AO ssid1        wifi_2ccf6706c612_abc_managed_psk
   ssid2                wifi_2ccf6706c612_cde_managed_psk
    Code
    2) set the dns servers on the service 
connmanctl config wifi_2ccf6706c612_abc_managed_psk --nameservers 5.1.66.255,185.150.9.255

    i use those that should not filter anything for germany

  • joyn / widevine does not work

    I installed joyn (ip tv provider) to watch some tv shows in german. Unfortunately, i get an error and the plugin aborts.

    In the logs i found this:


    Anyone an idea whats going on? Is it the wrong widevine that this plugin downloads? Unfortunately i have no netflix, otherwise i would install that addon and see what it downloads.

  • [RPi5] CEC Wakeup/Standby

    I have a rpi5 running with LE nightly. I have a Denon X3400h and a LG Oled C7. When i power off the TV, the AVR powers off to, but the rpi5 stays on. Now i found some reddit topics that say, the rpi5 can not standby e.g. https://www.reddit.com/r/kodi/comment…ndby_then_what/ - just wondering if this is true (because i dont trust those reddit comments), so i thought i'll go and ask the experts here :)

    Is it true that the rpi5 can not do standby? Tbh that would surprise me. So it also can not wake up then?

  • hardware recommendation for a new setup

    Hi, my mom asked me if i could help her to have a better TV experience. E.g. she uses the youtube plugin from the TV (LG OLED) which always pops up annoying ads that are loud. Also when watching over DVB-S2 the TV pops up ads, this is so ridiculous. So i thought i'll go and buy something like an rpi 5, put libreelec on it. She sometimes watches youtube. I thought it would be nice if the TV becomes really a stupid TV (without internet connection anymore) and everything goes over the rpi5 with a dvb-s2 card. Anyone familiar with that and recommendations?

  • [RPi4] Out of Memory Error

    Quote from HiassofT

    disable all the addons one-by-one

    Not sure about that. Why one-by-one? Do i have to wait after disabling one? If i have to wait until it runs out of memory after each one... thats impossible. I have to make an appointment each time i want to connect to that machine, then my dad needs to find time (he wont be available in complete september). So i guess it ends here.

    probably you forgot to enable persistent logfiles

    True, i forgot that.

  • [RPi4] Out of Memory Error

    I updated the image but when i grepped for SUMMARY, nothing appeared.

    So i checked with systemctl status kodi, when its normal running. Thats the output:

    The last line is a bit irritating. Is there something else missing? When i disable kodi, it looks like this:

  • [RPi4] Out of Memory Error

    i upgraded to the version mentioned above but i get tons of those errors and libreelec resp. kodi does not start:

  • [RPi4] Out of Memory Error

    The thing is... i see my dad maybe 4 times a year. Thats where this machine is. So i can not flash a new image to his sd card and do a lot of stuff. I will see what is possible. I have to do all remote.

    Can i flash such an image with a command and all settings keep the same?

    This is LE13 (master) not LE12 but it's the same Kodi version in the image (not Piers, yet). Remind me in another couple of days and let's see if memory has substantially increased.

    Is this default kodi without anything "special"? If yes, i assume he must go with the 4gb version.
