The box runs quite nicely after everything (this PC, router, and LE box) are rebooted.
Only a few hours later it's noticeably slower.

Use it a few months and it can take a good 5+ minutes from selecting a folder until it actually appears and is useable. I've had a quick search around here and haven't found anything much the same.
Where do I start looking for a solution please?

After a few false starts/debugging the hardware, it works.
Just had to reset the screen borders and it's exactly the same as it used to to be, whew!

Thanks, I was hoping I could get away with that. It's a nightmare setting everything up.

After about ten year my XBMC box finally died.
So it's time for new hardware, my question being that if I use the original HD (an SSD) do I need to do a full install again?

Edit- Just getting ready to do a fresh installation if need be, and it's been quite a long time since I've done that, so I read the Wiki again. Not terribly helpful past the point of creating the USB stick media, as it doesn't mention what to do with it at all. I'm guessing that you have to plug the USB stick in and get the board to boot via that stick?

Okay I had a guess as to what to do and it's worked.
Thanks for that!

Thanks - However even after having a look at the PVR & Services TVHeadend stuff and searching, I have absolutely no idea what any of that means.
And why would it work for a day then suddenly stop?

Many thanks for that, it makes sense now.

This video seems to be pretty reasonable explaining how to do it.

Ta, I'll try Tubed.

And with no surprise to me, that doesn't work either.
"Error: quota exceeded"

So I'm allowed to watch zero videos?

And it's not resolved, again.

I foolishly tried to perform the difficult task of watching the TV and it's not working again. I changed absolutely nothing.
Here's the log - https://paste.kodi.tv/bufusefami

Any suggestions please.

I don't think it is LE.
I think it is changes that YT put in.

You may well be right - But I use two browsers simultaneously most of the time, one of them doesn't have me logged into YT and the videos play the same as the other browser where I am logged-in. How is that different to LE not being logged-in and requesting to play a video?

i just wish someone could port newpipe to kodi.. its a opensource android client with no google api whatsoever.. it whould be perfect for basic kodi usage.. you can import your subscriptions from google takeout.. and if you need more advanced features.. just use the current api supported addon

How about just putting it back the way it used to be, where you didn't have to sign-in to watch YT. That worked just fine on earlier version of LE.

Got it working properly now - The problem was that I was selecting my local city location and it just wasn't loading any channels or muxes or whatever it's called. I picked Australia in general and all the channels are there now.
And yes, CvH it has TVHeadend as the back & front ends and it's working just fine.

Now to figure out the Youtube thingy ....

Please mark this thread as resolved.

can only worked by chance

Nope, it's starting to work as it used to again.
I just have to work out how to get it to scan all the channels. So still working on it for now.

Edit - still fiddling trying to work it out ...

Okay uninstalled all that, rebooted, then installed TVHeadend service, then TVHeadend PVR and it's looking promising as there's the TV guide & other icons at the top of the screen. Nothing more than that, so I'll hit the wiki to figure out how to get the backend thingy to get channels.
Still not solved yet, but closer.

And then on to getting Youtube to work ...

I'll uninstall TVHeadend and re-install it, see how that goes.
Backend first then front end?

Quote from CvH

please just install Tvheadend 4.2 or 4.3 and not both and please just use the pvr.hts client (vor Tvh) and not additional mythtv and nextpvr

Code

ERROR <general>: AddOnLog: pvr.hts: unable to connect to 127.0.0.0:9982

basically your tvheadend server is not running, likely because you have both installed

It worked like that before the update.

Remove the supremebuilds crap from your Kodi setup, otherwise support stops and this thread will be closed before darkness falls.

Video piracy has no place on this forum.

A friend suggested that I install it 'cause it was awesome, etc. So I downloaded it, but then looked at what it really was an did and it's of no interested to me, so it was downloaded but not installed. And it's gone now anyway.

Quote from emveepee

I disagree with the statement to simply ignore NextPVR since it is can easily be installed via a zip package that CvH started for us but unfortunately abandoned, as it is working quite well in my testing on LE and CE platforms. Alternately you can install using Docker but configuring /dev/dvb devices in Docker takes a bit more expertise and potentially more resources although on an x64 device I doubt that would be a concern.

Why can't I use what was working perfectly before though?

Managed to get a log file out of it.
