I had a similar problem with my Pi4 and a BenQ projector. The projector would only recognize the Pi when it was already running before the Pi booted.

So, try to turn on the projector first, wait a few seconds, then boot the Pi.

If that works, generate an edit.dat file:

tvservice -d /flash/edid.dat

and put hdmi_edid_file=1 in your config.txt.

That way the projector recognizes the already running Pi, in my case.

Running fine here on my Rpi4 so far.

I first thought that updating broke the Youtube addon, because I get "no streams found" for every video I tried to play. But it seems that the problem is due to a Youtube API change. See No streams found · Issue #661 · jdf76/plugin.video.youtube · GitHub

Btw.: Downloadlinks on the Webpage have been updated.

Is the version of 9.2 Beta1 = 9.1.501?

Confussing numbering and btw not available over the download_new web page

libreelec-rpi4.arm-9.1.501.img.gz

works fine...

The attack specific website with details is online now: krackattacks.com

On Linux this affects hostapd and wpa_supplicant. More details, including patches: WPA packet number reuse with replayed messages and key reinstallation

Hey folks,

an apparently very nasty vulnerability is about to be revealed at 8 A.M. EST today:

Let's hope there will be patches available...

Yes, browsing with Dolphin works fine with the above mentioned fix. I don't use Nautilus, so I can't say anything about it.

Hi chewitt,

thank you very much for your response, I didn't know that smbclient in Ubuntu 16.04 doesn't switch to higher protocol versions automatically.

Adding

client min protocol = smb2
client max protocol = smb3

to /etc/samba/smb.conf on my Ubuntu box fixes this. Browsing samba shares now works with smbclient and kio_smb.

Hey all,

after the update to 8.1.1 I got Samba problems as well. I read the announcement at least three times to understand how the LibreELEC Samba configuration works and also googled a lot, but I still can't figure it out.

I run LibreELEC 8.1.1 on a Rpi3, minimum Samba version is set to 2, maximum to 3. I can access the Samba shares from Windows 10, however I can't access them from Linux (KDE neon user edition, based on Ubuntu 16.04). When trying to browse my shares with Dolphin (version 17.08.1), I only get an error that the connection timed out, so I tried it with smbclient.

When running smbclient (version 4.3.11-Ubuntu), I get the following output:

smbclient -L 192.168.5.200
WARNING: The "syslog" option is deprecated
Enter user's password: 
protocol negotiation failed: NT_STATUS_INVALID_NETWORK_RESPONSE

However, when I set the maximum client protocol Version, I get a proper response:

smbclient -m smb3 -L 192.168.5.200
WARNING: The "syslog" option is deprecated

This works both with setting the maximum client protocol version to "smb2" and "smb3". kio-smb

I found a thread on LinuxQuestions.org, where the solution was to explicitly set the server protocol version to SMB3. I tried to set that in /storage/.config/samba.conf, which seemed to have no effect.

I noticed that in /etc/samba/smb.conf no protocol options are set, so where is this done? Is it possible to set the server protocol version explicitly without the min/max settings?

Hey all,

I was very happy to see that LibreELEC already ships a mpd-addon. I want to control the local mpd instance via hotkey, therefore I need mpc.

It would be nice if mpc could be included either as a separate addon, or in the mpd-addon. It only depends on libmpdclient, together they're less than 200kb in size.

Links to sources:

GitHub - MusicPlayerDaemon/mpc: Command-line client for MPD

GitHub - MusicPlayerDaemon/libmpdclient: C library to implement a MPD client

Thanks!

Never mind, I just found that there's the possibility to configure a keymap with System.Exec

I'll try that and report back if it does what I want.

Does LibreELEC contain a way to run console commands upon key presses?

I'm currently using raspbian, which has the neat triggerhappy ( GitHub - wertarbyte/triggerhappy: A lightweight hotkey daemon ).

I'm planning to use LibreELEC as a mediacenter, which will run headless most of the time with mpd, it will be used for movie-watching only occasionally. So I need a way to control mpd without the gui.

Thanks, Zapp
