A really weird bug : If a disable AC3 transcoding, I set the number of channel to 7.1 and I watch an episode or a movie in AAC 5.1, I hear only the background music, no dialog... But if I set number of channel to 2.0 and I enable AC3 transcoding everything is fine.

After recent investigation, I found out that this makes perfect sense. ALSA config is written in such way, that all audio is transcoded in IE958 format. This is a bit problematic - DW-HDMI IEC958 support is meant only for compressed formats, 2 ch for normal compressed streams, 8 ch for HBR. It's unclear at this point if any other channel combination may work with IEC958 format. With AC3 transcoding you make sure that there is no uncompressed audio, so IEC958 should work fine in all cases. GUI uses stereo sound, which should work with IEC958 too.

I just tested my Plus2E board with latest image and it boots normally. Remove "quiet" from extlinux/extlinux.conf file located on FAT32 partition on SD card. It should print much more info during boot.

It was never claimed that LE10 will have feature parity with LE9 due to a move to a new approach.

it shows that LE compiled on Mar 1, 2017 is on the screen. With KODI 16. That's why I guess it was older releases.

I'm aware of that - this version was made by someone outside of LE team, it is based on BSP kernel instead of mainline and it was never part of any official release.

Quote from AonMaster

I want to try older versions, like 6, 7, 8 and 9.0.

Could you share links to those images? Maybe it will boot.

None of those versions exist for OrangePi Plus 2E. LE10 will be first official release. You can always try nightly image.

mike2002 please test performance governor, that's something I would accept as a workaround (by popular vote), but not "set algorithmdirtyregions to 0"

Quote from Kristian

It seems to be some race condition, considering that it works on another Opi PC

I don't think it's issue with board - there is no real difference regarding HDMI audio, I think it's end equipment. Just for that reason, I sometimes test with different monitors and TVs. This allowed me to fix most bugs, but obviously I don't have all quirky monitors/TV... Do you have a possibility to test passtrough on some TV which supports compressed formats directly, without AVR?

Can you test if using performance governor helps? That's only conceivable difference between H3 and H6 that could make a difference.

Hi everyone!I have tanix tx6 4/32 dual wifi,i install official 9.95.2,but i don't see any wifi connection,on android all works.Can somebody help me?

No, wifi is not supported. See first post for reason.

Then you have a lot to learn - build environment is mostly supported only on Linux PC (x86 64-bit) and build instructions are here: https://wiki.libreelec.tv/development-1/build-basics Note that you must use this sources: GitHub - LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv at 93e40294ead3fc8023389903a3179ecc7ca40b11 These are last ones including A20 support.

Sorry, but it's impossible to debug something that works for me. I tested this on LG B8 TV, which supports most of compressed formats. AVRs are known to cause issues, but I have none.

Will the H6 get RGB LCD support ?

While in theory should be easy to add, there is no plan to do that. Mostly because no LE developer has such HW. Doing any kind of development without HW is hard and wastes a lot of time.

mike2002  offbeat Thanks! Issue identified: libdrm: update to 2.4.105 by heitbaum · Pull Request #5301 · LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv · GitHub

Nightly images will be unusable for a few days until issue gets resolved. Decoding works if libdrm is downgraded to 2.4.104, but that's not a proper solution.

Quote from lesgar

That is why I was wondering if they will continue to publish tanix nigtly,

Yes, Tanix TX6 nightly images will continue to be published for foreseeable future.

Quote from lesgar

Just start with the tanix image from the 21st. Since then, no more nightly have been posted to test?

I just checked and there is today's nightly image.

Quote from lesgar

The image of belkin does not start.

Do you mean Beelink? Most probably your board is too different to that.

Anyway, Q+ is not supported, because no developer has it.

Quote from levitsky86

Does this setting correspond to every single video playback? I see I have to disable it on every channel separately.

I don't know, to be honest. I just know that I need to fix some corner cases with this functionality...

Kristian Test images are updated to beta2. This time I actually test them and they work as well as before.

Quote from levitsky86

Sorry Jernej, but I can't find it! Which settings menu should I search? I've got "System", "LE", "Player", "PVR"...

Not in general settings, but settings which can be opened during video playback.
