  • [RPi5] Cache Settings

    Quote from soder10

    I use Pi5 wired LAN interface, but it is running only on 100Mbit/sec, not Gigabit. The video source is on an SMB windows box.

    This seems to be the normal speed for that hardware. The NIC specs don't mean you really get it in real life.

    RE: Change 100MB to 1GB on LibreELEC-Generic-legacy.x86_64-12.0.1?

    I see transfers around ~112MB/s from an RPi5 with nvme storage.

    I see transfers around ~33MB/s on an elderly Amlogic S905 box with emmc storage.

    I see transfers around ~12MB/s on another Amlogic board booted from USB storage.

    All three have gigabit NICs, but all three internally wire them up differently and storage media can have a large impact too.

  • [RPi5] Cache Settings

    Quote from soder10

    But the questions in my opening post still apply aboutv how exactly does caching work in LE / Kodi, and how to maximize usable cache size up to the free RAM available?

    RE: [RPi5] Problem mount HardDisk

    […]

    GPU memory is fixed at boot time and we already optimised consumption. Kernel caching has a simple rule: "if you understand the kernel documentation, do what you like, else leave alone" and since 99.99% of users will not understand kernel memory architecture it's best left alone. On the Kodi side users like to tweak cache/buffers settings thus undoing thousands of man-hours of effort to optimise the default settings with a ham-fisted bodge from a forum post where a user with a different…

  • [RPi4] WiFi Issue

    Quote from asteriosd

    The problem disappeared as soon as I changed hdmi port on my TV. Initially I was using the (e)ARC port. Could be that the audio return capability triggers a bug?

    No, but it might trigger a PSU issue. We have to see a log to be sure...

    Please provide a full debug log.

    How to post a log (wiki)

    1. Enable debugging in Settings>System Settings>Logging
    2. Restart Kodi
    3. Replicate the problem
    4. Generate a log URL (do not post/upload logs to the forum)

    use "Settings > LibreELEC > System > Paste system logs" or run "pastekodi" over SSH, then post the URL link

  • [RPi5] Remote Not Working Since LE 13

    The initialization of the CEC adapter has a bug. On your working LE 12.0.1:

    On your non-working LE 13 nightly (20241103-f662bea):

    Code
    2024-11-05 16:49:04.830 T:1046    debug <general>: InitialiseFeature - using libCEC v4.0.7
2024-11-05 16:49:04.830 T:1057    debug <general>: Thread CECAdapter start, auto delete: false
2024-11-05 16:49:04.830 T:1057    debug <general>: OpenConnection - opening a connection to the CEC adapter: Linux
2024-11-05 16:49:04.832 T:1046    debug <general>: Initialise - initialised peripheral on 'Linux' with 2 features and 0 sub devices
2024-11-05 16:49:04.832 T:1046     info <general>: Register - new cec device registered on cec->Linux: CEC Adapter (0000:0000)
2024-11-05 16:49:04.832 T:1046    debug <general>: Thread PeripBusCEC 140732832476800 terminating

    In the working log, the CEC adapter is registered at /dev/cec1, in the non-working log at Linux.

    I've already reported the bug to the devs. Stay tuned.

    Quote from Albert

    Hi, I'm just discovering LE, is it useful to do it every night? Is it a “stable” version ?
    And if I make a backup of version 12, can I come back to it without worrying ?

    Our nightly builds are very stable, they are just not tested as much as the stable ones.

    Make a backup from LE 12, and if something goes wrong with LE 13, you can go back by update folder method.
