The Kodi app should do it for the Shield.

I have no advice how to control fan speed by LE. The GUI is running significantly smother since 9.0, so I think multi-threading is the cause. That's a sign of good programming.
You can connect the fan cables directly to the PSU. Then you have constant fan speed, which is maybe not that loud.

Well that's why I would welcome a statement from the developers.
Because I would like to know the facts rather than talk about the edge, chances and limitations.
I agree. We need more transparency about what happens under the hood. Something like a pop-up window, which describes the cause of a disabled feature.

Format the whole disk. After that, you should have a single Windows-readable partition. Then run the LE installer. The LE installer will reformat the disk, and you will get the two mentioned partitions - now with the right size of the FAT partition.
-
When LE formats a storage device, the FAT partition is usually small, and the majority is taken by the Linux partition. Please check the size of the FAT partition. As user chewitt mentioned, you can use "GParted Live" a) to shrink the Linux partition and b) expand the FAT partition.
Of course you can start from scratch, too. A fresh installation will take the right FAT partition size.

Every example should be classified by hardware and software decoding. When using hardware decoding, DD+ has a better chance to work.
-
I think it's a hardware limitation of the Raspberry Pi, not a bug. By using Netflix and it's software decoding standard, you're pretty much on the edge with an RPi. If you must have maximum audio quality on Netflix, buy an Intel NUC, an Nvidia Shield TV or something like that.

Does Bluetooth really participates from the HifiBerry+ DAC? I thought the DAC only affects analogue output signals.
You can try the "Bluetooth Audio Device Changer" add-on, but I'm not sure about it's simultaneous playback abilities.

Take into account to buy an HDMI audio splitter instead. It makes you indepandant of any driver issues, and you'll get an optical out for less money.

Of course. But this is not the issue here
Yes, I just had a look at the Git project. Now I think, it's a wrong binary, too. The project should be recompiled.

Whatever the full path is, he will know about it.
But there is a difference between "./gpio" and ". gpio".
-
You mean directly in the program's folder or in /bin ?
In the program folder it results in this:
Odroid:~/.kodi/addons/service.wiringPi/bin # .gpio
-sh: .gpio: not found
The space between the point and the program name is missing at your command.
Do "<point><space>gpio" in the folder of your program. Or use the full path:
Code. <full-path-to-folder>/gpio -
Maybe you have to run it in the same shell environment. Try ". gpio" at your bin folder.

PS: You can shrink the Linux partition to create a 120GB Windows partition. The rest of the Linux partition will still have enough space for all temporary files. After that, you will see the new partition like having a Windows formatted USB stick on your RPi. You can use GParted Live to reformat micro SD.
-
Yes, the Linux partition contains default folders for your content ("music", "pictures", "videos"). You can reformat the micro SD, and add a windows partition, if you don't want to use a client program for copying.

S905X is a SoC and the drivers are there. You don't sell SoCs these days without providing Linux drivers or giving access to specifications.
Interesting. Where can I buy that package?
The common practice is that the manufacturer of a SoC delivers a developer board and an SDK. So the hardware API / drives are part of the SDK. It's hard to separate the hardware API / drivers from the SDK.
-
So my basic question is if it wouldn't make sense to clean house and find a (cheap) worldwide S905(x) partner for us users and support it, instead of linking dead or hard to get products.
I'm not an LE developer, but I'm reading here for a while. The main problem is getting driver source code and/or API documentation for the hardware. It's necessary for an LE build. S905x companies have no interest to give those data away, because that makes reproduction easier. That's why the Raspberry Pi became so successful - developers have hardware drivers access.

The new output looks much better. Yes, color space is independent of HDMI or DVI mode. All resolutions of the target device do appear. That's no bug, because the adapter transmits the complete abilities of the target device without filtering.
I was unable to send a developer a PM, because the function is blocked from his side. But you can still change thread title, and mark it as [BUG] to get developer attention. If that doesn't lead to any response, you can start a new thread in the "Bug Report" sub-forum.
