A lot of way to do it, another sd card, a usb stick/drive/ssd.

for the core (emulator), if you use the kodi addon, or the raspberry pi OS package, there will be no or just few core available, you'll need to download aarch64 build of the core.

but if you use a retro gamin OS, all the core will be available (most of the time, core working well on your system)

I don't use retroarch on libreelec, I have a usb drive with batocera for retro gaming,

but there is no retroarch core build for aarch64 (Rpi4 and Rpi5 build) , even if there is a build for retroarch, so maybe you have to install core manually form this https://github.com/christianhaitian/retroarch-cores

Being a mean parent I'd bag the RPi5 for myself and pass down an RPi4 to the kid

That's what I'll do

I have to buy a new box for my last kid, I have 5 Pi4 for now, and for the new one, why not upgrading,

so what your opinion between a Pi5 or a N100? (for using jellyfin addon for h264/hevc)

I think it's impossible to update python to 3.x in this LE version ?

I have a WP2 and using jellyfin which drop support of python 2.0, so my only way is to update to the main LE version 12 or 13?

(secretly hoping....)

same problem once,

RE: [LE 11] Wetek play 2

You can boot using the "box" image after setting the dtb name to use in uEnv.ini .. AND .. doing the toothpick/reset process to force u-boot to reload our boot scripts from the SD card. This will prevent CE from booting .. unless you repeat the toothpick/reset to force u-boot to reload their boot scripts. You cannot simply swap SD cards to swap OS.

using libreelec 12 on RPi4 (4 Rpis) and jellyfin on a nuc, no problems at all

try to investigate with the jellyfin log and the kodi log, maybe post on the jellyfin kodi addon github

I have a few raspi lying around, and while the 4/5's do work kind of nicely with Libreelec, they ´weren't designed to be living room material. And the pi foundation does everything to keep it that way:

• no power management,
• no soft on/off
• flimsy connectors (micro hdmi is mechanically highly unstable)
• no decent case
• connector all around the board
• no remote and while it has CEC, the latter cannot switch on the device

People keep saying keep it on, it doesn't suck that much power when idle,,, hmm, well, yes, but it keeps wol-ing other servers that could actually sleep. If you disable wol, then again you need to run around and physically switch on other stuff..

Again usabilty for non Nerds is a pretty low. Also, the PQ has improved, it isn't that great.

Which brings me back to intel nucs. Why is it that it they have been abandoned? Money? Is it possible to bribe someone to bring back functionality that was already there in LE10 and got broken in 11/12?

The best case for pi4 is the argon one V1/V2, on/off power management, and for the remote i use for year rii mini keyboard, far better than a simple remote control

good news that the power off works on LE12

Nope sorry only ethernet

And for now I'm still using Coreelec 9, as LE11 don't shut off, using LE 11 as test

Thank you, everything is OK now

OK I had everything wrong.

Thanks.

I can't find the uEnv.ini file, is it in the boot partition or on the data partition?

I already boot in SD card, as I'm using coreelec, but I want to update to Kodi 19

Hello

I try to install on sd card LE11 for my Play 2, but when I boot it, it boot on the WEOS (internal OS)

I installed it on a 64Go SD card

Thank you, so I didn't understand correctly the 9.2 beta article.

Yeah I already use 9.0 for my WP2 and my setup is a mariadb one .

I wanted to push my pi3 to the 9.2beta but if there is a bump in kodi version, the database will not be the same.

I think i'll wait until 9.2beta (or final) will be available for all my setup.

Hello,

As I own pi3 and a wetek play 2, and my kodi database is on a server, I need to run the same version of kodi.

I wanted to test the nightly build for the wetek,

but can't find where to download it, or do I need to compil it?

Thanks you!

LibreElec 9.X

WETEK Play 2

LE on sdcard

Hello since the 9.x update of LibreElec I have a sound issue.

My wetek is linked to an yamaha avr (rx-v459) with optical link to play sound (DTS/AC3, and everything else)

If I play a video with AC3 or DTS sound, then playing a video with sound in an other format than this 2 (AC3/DTS) the sound is glitching

If I reboot, then the video is playing fine(not the AC3/DTS one), but if I play an AC3/DTS video, the next video not in this audio format the sound will be glitching.

If I play another AC3/DTS video, i just play fine.

when I stop an AC3/DTS video, my avr is locked in "straight" input and I cannot change it.
