Latest “recompiled” inputstream and pvr addons have been published. Should be with you soon.

Hi LybsterKodi - no updates on the lists that I have seen or the website.

NTFS driver for Linux full guide in questions and answers | Paragon Software

Answers to questions about the new NTFS3 driver in the Linux kernel and its commercial version

www.paragon-software.com

Though patches and updates to the ntfs3 driver are coming though

I wouldn’t think samba would be part of the issue. As the fopen/fwrite/fclose function calls are handled by the kernel filesystem drivers. Samba is a userland application (that happens to offer its services across th3 network.)

The actual issue with samba 4.16.x and the dcerpc was that the samba team were seperating the non file RPC calls into a helper program.

Quote from LybsterKodi

Sorry to be a pain but does this mean that samba is now working fully and correctly? I read the github entry and cannot understand it (no surprise there) and tried googling to understand dcerpc and srvsvc - good way to waste time

Yep \\server now allows browsing.

Hello there!

I had a script using wget when I was running Kodi on RaspberryOS, but have since moved to the latest LibreElec v10.0.2.

LibreElec's wget doesn't give the info (esp. file size) when called with the --spider parameter, nor does it log as verbatim, or accepts an input file (and probably a million more parameters )

I cannot tell the version of wget, it appears to be part of BusyBox v1.32.1. Can wget be updated in some way? Or can a newer wget packaged with the System Tools addon?

Thanks!

Hi humdinger - wget is part of busybox on LibreELEC as an intentional minimal install. (The curl installation on LibreELEC is the full curl implementation.)

polo_joe - please test https://test.libreelec.tv/11.0…y-20220829-90a6f3e.img.gz - we believe this should fix your issue.

Hi polo_joe - I have done some testing - and did not crash. Will continue to test.

I'm not the world favorite english speaker, but I guess that should read " I bought ..." or even "I have bought"

- me is unsure -

As I was word-smithing another sentence - what about “I purchased …” It is a cold Sunday morning here alongside the beach, and not much else to do here, and my Football (AFL) team lost last night :-(. Have a great day all.

Should LE10 nightlies be supporting Alder Lake processors now? It's not really clear to me if the kernel was bumped up in the nightlies, cos the latest doesn't run on my Celeron G6900 (is your GPU supported?).

I really don't want to upgrade to LE11 yet.

Details here. https://wiki.libreelec.tv/hardware/intel-x86-64-generic

I run TGL on LE11 as until kernel 5.12 support was not complete.

LE10 uses kernel 5.10.x

FEEDBACK for latest LibreELEC-AMLGX.arm-11.0-nightly-20220617-07254d4-box.img

Video driver is broken for S912 (Yoka KB2 3/32, both q200 and q201 dtbs): video glitches, decoding errors and freezing.

UI deadlocks randomly too.

There has been a lot of changes since. Please try last nights image. https://test.libreelec.tv/11.0…220806-7a6f94e-box.img.gz

I recently installed LibreELEC 10.0.2 on my RPI3. First I installed the Librespot addon (Version 10.0.0.129).

But Librespot doesn't work. I can see Librespot at my Spotify App on my smartphone, but after choosing Librespot in my Spotify app no music plays to start.

In logs I can see that I get every 10s the log message, as long the Librespot addon is running :

pulseaudio[311]: W: [pulseaudio] sap.c: sendmsg() failed: Connection refused

Any ideas how I can fix this?

See Librespot no longer works for the workaround

New version available on test.libreelec.com now - latest kernel. There was a breaking change that requires the binary addons to be reinstalled.

See RE: LibreELEC-RPi2.arm-11.0-nightly-20220723-Boot loop after Kodi image for some more info.

By way of a note. librespot update to 0.4.x has been in the backlog for a while. It has been updated but the following compile error still needs to be addressed. Based on the GitHub comments 0.4.2 might address the “issue” but blocker is time/knowledge in fixing the below first.

LE wouldn’t be writing to the 6TB in the scenario you point out.

Here is what would have been mounted as a guess?

/flash

/storage

/var/media/SeagateSomething

LE would be busy using /storage/ .kodi .config …

Unless you had something specifically configured (addons) or some configuration. lE shouldn’t have been writing to the “SeagateSomething” disk at the time. We’re you copying files across to the drive via samba….

All guesses, but hope the info helps you piece together what may have been happening.

Which LE are you running?

LE11 uses NTFS3 while <=LE10 uses NTFS3G

What errors did you get? What was the corruption?

As a note - there is still a lack of fsck.ntfs3.
