latest is 10.0.4-230120a

If you have any problems please install offcial LibreELEC version on which my build is based on and test again. If the problem is the same it is most likely not my build.

If you dont use any of the following additions i made, then my images have no benefit for you and you should use the official build.

the following was added in my community build:

- /flash 1024MB

- no GUI tools for the encryptiom, lvm2 or mdraid

- enable kernel config for lvm2 and snapshots (no cache, no thin)

- added lvm2 tools (config is under /storage/.config/lvm)

- enable kernel config for software raid with lvm2 and standalone with mdraid

- added mdraid to control linux software raid

- enable kernel config for dm-crypt to use cryptsetup (compatible with luks, veracrypt, truecrypt)

- added cryptsetup to manage encrypted block devices with luks, veracrypt and some more

- enabled /etc/crypttab support in systemd

- enable kernel config for ext4 filesystem encryption

- added fscryptctl to manage ext4 encryption

- enable kernel config for more crypto modules and options

- curl: enable protocol support for scp, sftp, smb, smbs

- versions: cryptsetup-2.3.7, lvm2-2.03.11, fscryptctl-1.0.0, mdadm-4.1

Builds are done for all official LE 10 supported architectures that are so far Generix x86_64, RPi4, RPi2, Allwinner and Rockchip.

I testet so far only Generic in booting and using cryptsetup.

RPi2, Allwinner or Rockchip is just build and never installed or tested.

The following links are only for people who are interested in the source code of my builds.

sorry guys i got a little bit sloppy with updating this thread, but i did upload the new release as i finished it

Update 9.2.6-#201025

download link sky42 LibreELEC community builds

based on LibreELEC (Leia) 9.2.6 – LibreELEC

I also build my Generic kernel-4.19 version with a the new kernel 4.19.152, but now driver addons are disabled in this Generic kernel-4.19 release (they do not build anymore)

fab233 thanks fro the informations. I bought a DP2HD4K60H firmware 11.116.055. I have Club3D CAC-1070 (fw 7.99), CAC-1080 (fw 11.116.009) and now a StarTech DP2HD4K60H. The DP2HD4K60H is the 1st one ever to play all resolutions + audio PT for all formats. For both Club3D i used the HDMI 1.4 onboard for audio and DP 1.2 + Adapter for video.

smp i tested the image from today on ASRock B360M + i3-8100 + DP2HD4K60H + AVR X4500H + TV LG E6D and only get a black screen. I did also try only the TV, but smae black screen.

On the screenshots you see what my AVR Info is for the i3-8100 and my Vero 4k+. Tested with Avenger Endgame mkv remuxed myself with makemkv.

Update 9.2.5-#200829

I also build my Generic kernel-4.19 version with a the new kernel 4.19.142, but now driver addons are disabled in this Generic kernel-4.19 release (they do not build anymore)

I will not change Kodi settings in a different way then official LE 9.2.

From a quick look at the source no:

sky42@xenial:/letv/9/2x$ git grep CONFIG_CRYPTO_ADIANTUM
projects/Allwinner/linux/linux.aarch64.conf:# CONFIG_CRYPTO_ADIANTUM is not set
projects/Allwinner/linux/linux.arm.conf:# CONFIG_CRYPTO_ADIANTUM is not set
projects/Generic/linux/linux.x86_64.conf:# CONFIG_CRYPTO_ADIANTUM is not set

and from reading over here Enabling Adiantum | Android Open Source Project i dont think i will include it in 9.2. But when i start with LE 10 i will (hopefully) think of it.

I am a x86 fan. Started with a Celeron 1610 and Nvidia GT 610. That was great. Next Haswell NUC was great too. Now i3-8100 and it does it all in the most stable way except 4k with HDR.

For me x86 is not dead, it is working great except HDR (for now) and i will buy most likely a new x86 Board and CPU and put in in my Streacom FC8 Evo.

I was tempted more then one time to buy something for Intel HDR, but it is not yet ready and far from be stable to use.

I will not buy a new Intel before native HDMI 2.1 4k HDR 60 Hz is working and that is for sure not this year, becaues Hardware for that is not yet build. LSPCon are the worst.

I use Kodi every day instead of TV and i just want to use it stable

2 main Kodi player at the moment.

i3-8100

- most stable

- the least problems

- can use full software deinterlace yadif

- really fast interface

- really fast start playing also Streaming like amazon prime

- HBR audio does simply work

Vero 4k+, because i wanted 4k HDR now with HBR Audio (IIRC 18 month ago)

- plays HDR with 4k and passthrough just fine

- interface is a bit slow, when use x86 all the time

and for testing

RPi4 to see if it can beat the Vero 4k+

- it is getting there, but probably not this year (talking about stable and good for the wife with 4k HDR PT)

- today i tested successfully HBR Audio with the latest patches from HiassofT

- but that is with devel Kodi 19 and at the moment without 4k and no HDR (it will come)

RPi2

- reference for the other 2 rooms where are RPi2 running

- interface is slow, but fast enough

- play H264 1080p fine if you dont need/want HBR audio

Meecool K1 Pro to play around with AML

- mostly off, because i wait that mainline kernel will do with full HBR audio

Sorry Wicher  Nicolas i was and still are very busy at work

Wicher 2 examples from one of my posts 2 yesrs ago

features tested:

- truecrypt with "cryptsetup open --type tcrypt /dev/sda6 tcrypt-sda6 ; mount /dev/mapper/tcrypt-sda6 <your mountpoint>" created on OE 5.0 with truecrypt

- veracrypt with "cryptsetup open --veracrypt --type tcrypt /dev/sdb6 vcrypt-sdb6 ; mount.exfat /dev/mapper/vcrypt-sdb6 <your mountpoint>" created on Windows 10 with veracypt and formated as exfat

- cryptsetup luks i used to create and mount encrypted userdata

and the actual command line i use at the moment on my CentOS7 systems to mount my encrypted drives with a PW given in a script and mounting all

stty -echo
$ECHO -e ">>> Please enter password:    \c"
read PASS
stty echo

cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdc1 luks-sdc1 - <<< "$PASS" || exit 1

Nicolas sorry for the delay the next post will be 9.2.3

I don't think so.

Update 9.1.502-#191018

based on LibreELEC (Leia) 9.2 Beta 2 – LibreELEC

Atmos with DD+ (EAC3) does work, but not with TrueHD as HD Audio is not yet done.

Setup the GUI Refresh Rate to 50 Hz in settings -> system -> display, so switching to TV does not change refresh rate.

Whitelist Looks fine to me.

Setup adjust display refresh rate to "On start" in settings -> player -> video, so stopping would not change back to the GUI refresh rate.

Use the resolution whitelist and select all 1080p modes except 25, 29, 30 Hz.

Video from some TV channels shows up as 25fps and after some seconds Kodi detect it is interlaced and 50hz and switches again.

If you start with 50 Hz (25 Not allowed) no unnessearry switching.
