What do you mean with PR?
PR stands for Pull Request its in git version management tool a way to inform the maintainer (libre elec in this case) that you have something you would like them to include in their software.
So jernej means he informs libreelec to take over his fix out of his own test version. As he thinks its important enough to be included in Libre Elec until a proper fix is developed.
I checked it out and btrfs is working as expected.
Just stumbled over an issue with some of the movie files on there: mostly vertically oriented files taken by mobile end up either just 90° rotated or aspect ratio of height and width inverted sometimes both combined.
I doubt it's allwinner related however. I have a pretty short clip without any privacy issues. Should I share it somehow?
Edit: sent link by pm
I checked also some videos from my old nexus 5x where the ccd was mounted upside down. All videos are recorded upside down and as I understand it there's a hint in the meta data telling a player who can handle it that its recorded upside down. Unfortunately all videos are upside down unless I remembered this while shooting and kept the mobile upside down...
Interestingly the preview thumbnails are always shown in the right orientation and aspect ratio.
In case this should be non allwinner related where should I post it best?
Whoever wants to throw out an H6 board (actually any allwinner board) I'd adopt it 
Well, I just went ahead and made PR which was just merged... Anyway, you can check mentioned update or wait on tomorrow nightlies.
Will decide once my daughter sleeps if ill try it or wait for tomorrow, thanks
Please test following update: libreelec-h3.arm-9.80-devel-20191016073755-dfedcdb.tar
If it works, I'll make a PR.
Yes. No. No. There were made some attempts to do something to be able to disable CEC, but nothing that made it to mainline. Current idea by maintainers is to add DT flag to mark it as unusable. I might do it in the future, but currently I'm more focused to video stuff. You can however build your own image and disable CEC driver in kernel.
will test the btrfs tonight and let you know.
Regarding cec no big issue its just rendering dmesg useless without grep... Use your skills where they bring the most and what brings you the most fun 
your work is very much appreciated.
I'm getting lots of error messages about cec on my x2

I just checked and BTRFS is enabled only on 64-bit SoCs. I guess you are using H3? If so, I can make a PR to enable it.
Yepp still with my trusty old Beelink X2
would be happy if you could make the PR for btrfs on H3
Thanks
I just tried to mount an external hdd with vids and pics formatted in btrfs and it fails with the following message:
LibreELEC:~ # mount /dev/sda2 /media/pics
mount: mounting /dev/sda2 on /media/pics failed: Invalid arg
umentis there anything missing for btrfs or i messed something up? Sorry for my clumsy noob question it's my first evening with btrfs
Second character after model number tells which interface it uses. U - USB, S - SDIO and E - PCIE. I have seen same models with different interfaces.
Well my wife once had it in a laptop that's why I couldn't really believe that "s" at first...
upps sorry bambabur my bad.
I had a weird feeling with this number, thus I checked if its sdio (it actually is)...
But I also learnt something: rtl wifi is a bigger mess than expected
Hi everyone!
can u add RTL8723BS driver in the next Pine64-plus image?
Thank u!!
Sorry no:
See corrections by jernej below
Of course WiFi works, just not Realtek SDIO based modules,
And several other posts in this thread explaining why.

i try LibreELEC-H3.arm-9.80-nightly-20190919-de5dc4f-orangepi-pc-plus.img on my ORANGE PI PC+ and WIFI not work(boot) ALL other work fine. Wired work fine- USB wifi stick work fine but integral WIFI not work. Not response..
LibreElec option/Connections is Empty. when i plug in an external usb wifi adapter i see my why network
any help
LibreELEC-H3.arm-8.0-devel-20170516114055-r25546-g745f679-opipcplus.img - see internal WIFI
OpenELEC-H3.arm-7.1-devel-20161026221641-r23113-g64b34b3-opipcplus.img - see internal WIFI
I couldn't confirm it to 100% but it seems your wifi is realtek and this is not easily supported, so that jernej is not supporting it in the normal images, someone did some special image with realtek wifi, check further back in this thread if you are interested.
I can't install any PVR plug-ins.
The nightlies just switched to a new kodi version probably the add ons are not yet rebuilt and this takes another couple of days...
You mean add-ons? Most add-ons depends on Kodi version and some also on kernel, but that shouldn't affect anything, because kernel userspace API is stable. Anyway, Kodi was updated few days back, so yeah, you can wait a bit. But to be honest, I'm not sure how frequently add-ons are rebuilt. It can take more than a week.
Cool thanks. Lol yes of course add-ons
FYI, next nightly will be with Linux 5.3.0 and with fix for H6 HDMI audio.
Will extensions be ready or should we wait a bit?
I found one thing in a wiki: odroid-n2:software:building_petitboot [ODROID Wiki]
It seems there's an SD image, that flashes the SPI image
Thank you balbes, I took that spi and flashed it on sd card, but it doesn't happen
Without knowing anything about the N2, don't you have to flash uboot to the SPI flash instead of the SD? Like a BIOS on a PC?
It doesn't have good CPU voltage regulator (1-2 different voltages, depending of revision IIRC), so it gets hotter than other boards. As long as you watch HW decoded videos, it should be fine.
Thanks jernej
so same as with my x2 but 1g Ethernet and ampak brcm wifi. i guess not bad for 15$ shipped with case
