Have your USB source on the left showing the files and enter the Profile directory showing its files on the right.
Highlight advancedsettings.xml and hit the c.

Ah I see, I had it arse about face, and.... DONE...... thanks everybody for taking an interest and helping. I've REALLY got to learn more about the operation of LE, and Linux in general.
AFAIK, file should be copied to /storage/.kodi/userdata/
"in filemanager:
- you need to have the folder "storage" on the left side (don't know if it is default there, if NOT: => Add Source ...)
- you need to have /var/media/ or where the stick is mounted on the other side
- highlight the file you want to copy
- press the C -key (for context menu)"
Thanks for taking an interest.
I got here after following your excellent instructions. But in the context menu under the c-key, there is no "copy" option.
I have the following :
Select All
Add to Favourites
Rename
Delete
Make New Folder
Switch Media

is box via ssh accessable ?
addon system-tools installed ?
Its a vanilla install. No SSH. I just installed "System_Tools" from the LE repository. it says it is a console-only application.
If you insert your USB drive you should be able to go to Settings -> File Manager Add source and then on the right side select Profile Directory for your target and copy it.

Thanks Martin. To where, in the Profile directory, do I copy the file?
is box via ssh accessable ?
addon system-tools installed ?
SSH now enabled
Following instructions on the KodiWIKI, I have created an advancedsettings.xml file on my Windows PC with the intention of increasing my cache memory size on my 8Gb Rpi4.
I have it on a USB stick but, as a Windows user, I have no idea how to copy and save the file into the correct location in LibreELEC.
Can anybody provide step-by-step instructions?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Problem solved. The package that was downloaded using the USB SD Creator when selecting Rockchip RK3328 in the "Select Version" box was LibreElec-RK3328.arm-10.0.2-a1.img and it does not fire-up the Rock 64 properly. When I manually downloaded Libre..............10.0.2-rock64.img everything worked fine.
I've been trying to upgrade a Rock64 to the latest LE official version (10.0.2-a1) from the website but on installation it appears to fail to activate the onboard network adapter. No lights come on the adapter and no connection to the internet can be made. There is a message that flashes too briefly to read fully during bootup about "remote communication failed ". I've tried re-flashing but to no avail. I have flashed a Debian image to check if the adapter is dead and the lights then come on as expected so it appears the problem may lie with LE.
Can anyoine offer advice or assistance?
Thanks in advance
OK Thanks,
Can anyone tell me of any WIFi Dongles that are supported so I can get one that should work?
Thanks in advance.
Just bought one of these Wi-Fi dongles for my Rock64. When I boot LibreElec there is no option in Settings/Network for wireless networking.
Isn't this device supported?
Can any kind soul instruct me in how to get it working?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Forget it, I found an img.gz and used Etcher.
Hello All,
I went to Android because the Rock64 wasn't supported by Libre Elec when I bought it and there were many problems. I see from the list that it is now approved so I would like to rid myself of Android.
But...which version do I need to download? Pine/Rock64 isn't on the list.
Thanks in advance.
Should have checked before I spent £88 on it. Dammit.I wonder if I can send it back.
Thanks, but I've tried this, its v18 Leia Alpha. Its unstable and crashes whenever you stop a video stream or if you use the search facility in an addon. It won't install certain items from the LibreELEC repository. Downloaded source files known to be good on 17.6 as of yesterday show as empty when you download and go to unzip them.
I'm looking for a link to v.17.6 Krypton for the Rock64. Does it still exist??
Thanks. Can anyone direct me to a link for an image file for 17.6 Kryton for a Rock64? I've already tried a couple of Leia images but I am finding them unreliable.
I have bought a Rock64/4Gb to replace my RPi3. Can I simply plug in my existing RPI3 SD card into the Rock64 or do I need to download a new image for LibreELEC specifically for the Rock64??
Thanks in advance
Thanks for the reply, the problem with this recommended thread is that inexperienced users, like me, cannot follow the instructions.
I do not know where to type in these instructions, so they are useless. If it's just a few lines of code why not put it behind a button, thats what computers are good at.
It would be nice if there were a button in Network configuration to disable the onboard wi-fi on an RPi.
Although I have a Pi branded power supply and limited testing implies it's OK, I am going to replace with a new one to be sure. The network drops seem to be happening more frequently (it's now simply unusable) and the diversity of sources employed when failure occurs implies my problem is hardware based, The power supply has to be favourite in view of Hiassoft's comments (#9 above) his description fits exactly what I am seeing happen. All network communication dies suddenly and can only be reinstated by a full reboot.
Thanks Hias, will do.
I am using the official power supply that came with the Pi. Sounds like it might benefit from a multimeter test just in case it has developed a fault.
I have installed the log file addon and can now read the file on screen, a lot of errors mainly CCurFile timeouts.
I also found a Kodi add on stream that didn't falter, the Bible Teachers Broadcast Network, that went on and on and on, no matter how much I wanted it to stop. You couldn't make it up.
