You have some settings at config.txt, who are related to memory and cache size. Maybe that overrules your advancedsettings.xml.

One small problem, only boots from SD card. The update doesn't seam to have been embedded.....
Idea's?
I think that's the proper way to load it. Don't forget, this box wasn't made to install custom firmware, and the boot loader might still be locked. Maybe linking to SD card was the only possible way. Congrats, you made it!

Good choice, but kind of an end of this discussion, too, because we don't support CoreELEC.
There is no easy answer about audio, because I still don't know the connectivity of your DAC. If it supports SPDIF, then it should work fine with your box. Digital audio over USB is tricky: lower quality formats work, but we have user reports that AC3 and HD audio doesn't work over USB.
You said audio is your top priority. If you can't connect to SPDIF, then I suggest an HDMI audio extractor to connect your DAC. This should support all audio formats, including the above.

We have a thread, which has test builds: click.
Some people use another "ELEC" for S905, so google "s905 elec" if you want.
I haven't found the specs of your box and your DAC, so I can't give more answers at the moment.

uh, no. No lirct.conf should be needed, the xbox 360 remote should be supported by in-kernel decoding out of the box.
Sure? Isn't it an MCE remote, which needs LIRC?
-
But isn't that the "fallback" mechanism...?
No, it's essential. You don't need config.txt options to start LIRC. Download your fitting lircd.conf here.
-
The essential sentence for LE 9.x.x is this:
The option to enable / disable Lirc in LibreELEC settings has been removed as well, lircd will now be started automatically if the
/storage/.config/lircd.conffile is present.Have you done this?
PS: Please don't mix off-topic crap into your post. We have an off-topic sub-forum for this.

The kodi.log you've been posted says at line 54 and 55:
Code2020-03-30 20:27:39.641 T:3011744352 NOTICE: Disabled debug logging due to GUI setting. Level 0. 2020-03-30 20:27:39.641 T:3011744352 NOTICE: Log level changed to "LOG_LEVEL_NORMAL"This will change when you use advancedsettings.xml to increase the log level.
Line 41 to 50 of your kodi.log quotes your current advancedsettings.xml, so I think it has been loaded fine. If it has no effect on some of your settings, then LE ignores them for whatever reasons.
If you could post another kodi.log at log level 2, then we maybe find answers.
-
Just in case you forgot that LE uses add-ons instead of apt packages:
Addons --> Install from Repository --> LibreELEC Add-ons --> Add-on repository --> LinuxServer.io's Docker Add-on

If you use network streaming, then playing the same file from an USB stick should be the first thing to try.
I think you have to contact with support team. They have a proper knowledge to assist you in proper manner.
Very funny, this IS the support team. Our community provides better service than most commercial companies.

You can verify this by changing the log level from 0 to 1 or 2. That will be visible at kodi.log. Read here how to change the log level.

Do you have a link to the type of HDMI splitter you're thinking of? Is it something like this: eSynic 1080P HDMI Audio Extractor Splitter HDMI to HDMI + Optical TOSLINK SPDIF + Analog RCA L / R + 3.5mm Stereo Audio Splitter Adapter Converter for TV Blu-ray DVD Player SKY HD Box PS3 PS4: Amazon.ca: Cell Phones & Accessories
I don't suggest it. It's not future-proofed, because it doesn't support 4K. I found this splitter, which supports 4K and CEC: FeinTech VAX00102.
PS: If you additionally buy a 90 deg. angle adapter (Ebay) and use a 90 deg. power plug, then you can do a 180 deg. turn at the front of this splitter. So your studio desktop will look well-organized. The ability to switch off video while still having audio is another plus for a studio.

Thanks. The other idea I was thinking of was to get a HiFiBerry DAC that would plug into my raspberry pi.
That's an option, but the HDMI audio splitter is the more universal tool, often has optical output and might be cheaper. The only bad thing I heard about those splitters is that some of them don't pass-through CEC signals.
PS: Don't expect to get all audio formats (incl. AC3, HD audio etc.) when using a HiFiBerry DAC. The RPi's data bus will set some limits, too.
-
We usually don't see music production equipment here, so chances are very low to find another user of this hardware.
Anyway, there are some facts about USB audio and LE. Generally spoken, the higher the audio data rate, the lower the chance that an USB DAC will work. LE is no real-time kernel system, which will make USB transfer slower - too slow for some audio formats. Current user reports say that AC3 is kind of a breaking point: Audio formats below such a data rate work, AC3 and better doesn't work.
NI is a company for professional musicians, so I bet your device wants to receive USB audio data by using a pretty high data rate. If you find settings to reduce audio data quality, give it a shot.
My advice is to forget USB audio, and use an HDMI audio splitter instead. Then connect your NI device by using a cinch cable.

ps: in case i would anyway try to make kodi run correctly on my hw... i would need to patch the stock kernel, right?
Follow the suggestion of the linked thread instead, and install Ubuntu. Ubuntu's repository provides Kodi.

So does AC3 have more data rate compared to DTS ?
That's very likely. It's on you to do an internet research and find the bullet-proofed answer. The specs must be somewhere. At the moment my theory is based on the thread I linked above.

I think the issue is a too high audio data rate. It seems like AC3 is too much data for the data bus, resulting in data loss. Read here.
If you must have AC3, then buy an HDMI audio splitter.
