according to the system info:
Build: Kodi 17.6 Git: a9a7a20

so i believe im on the same version as you.

so i learned that by default it loads "/usr/lib/udev/rc_keymaps/libreelec_multi" so i copied that file to "/Storage/.config/rc_keymaps/mce" after editing out the other remotes, i then created a file called "rc_maps.cfg" in the /storage/.config folder. i put this in the file:

* * mce

^ so this mean any driver, any table, use the file "mce" to look up the key....

sorry for the delayed answer....

by using a custom rc_keymap, i fixed the remote issue

i also notice that when i stop kodi and ran "ir-keytable -t" press the OK button and got this:

LibreELEC:~ # ir-keytable -t

LibreELEC:~ #

so what's reading my remote?

are you referring to the Settings -> System -> Peripherals?
if so, after trying to mess with the settings, it didnt help....

i also tried
"systemctl mask eventlircd.service"

but that too didnt work

It has been a while, so i looked at the newest images for Cubox-i4x4 and got one working.....
not sure if i got the name right:
LibreELEC-imx6.arm-8.0-7.90.006-sr-3.14-v1.img

and for the most part its works, except....
when i press a button on the remote it acting like i pressed it several times.
The Lirc in the libreelec addon is disabled. so i dont know how disable or
at least see what else is reading the IR input (which is what i think is happening)

if it helps, this is the remote im using:
Amazon.com: New HP OEM Windows Media Center HTPC MCE PC RC6 IR Remote Control + IR emitter and Infrared Receiver for Windows7 Vista XP Home Premium and Ultimate Edition (Discontinued by Manufacturer): Home Audio & Theater

oh, and if i plugin the extender its acts like i pressed the button four or five times....

Quote from 5schatten

Well I can't give an exact answer about this. I have all my roms on my NAS & use Generic / RPi & KVIM builds with different emulators to run the same games. So I can play Link to the past on all systems with different emulators but all systems run the same RA version and are Linux builds. Have you tried to update your RA version? I mean 1.7.3 is about one year old and almost 4800 commits were merged since then.

well one problem solved, turns out its was [mupen] vs [paraLLEI] which save differently. Now i have a different problem(s) the volume control outside of kodi, for example chrome or dolphin, the volume is fixed at 100% and the volume keys (up/down/mute) dont work outside kodi. i have tried to search this problem before and google kept finding the wrong thing....

I dont know if its me or if i'm lacking a method here. i have retroarch on multiple devices and OSes (two biggest ones are this and windows.) but when i transfer the .srm file (which is the save pak) from windows (1.7.3) to here (1.7.6) i always get a corrupt mempak error and its deletes my save and fill the mempak with a bunch of zero files. this prevent me from taking my game with me when im not at home....

so.....are the saves in retroarch transferable?

well, upgrading seems to have fixed the issue. i just hope i wont experience the same problems as before....

to answer your question, i did have problems with the higher versions, so 7.0.2 was more stable at the time, i haven't tried to upgrade in a while.

yes, i used windows because it can transfer over 2-3 times faster of youtube videos or anime or movies much faster than a Samba or SFTP connection could, (avg sizes: 1 GB - 5GB from time to time)

i think i figured out why it mounts it as read-only....

when i'm in windows, i didnt use the "eject safety" option on the sdcard marking "dirty". once i "safety" removed the sdcard, mount shows it as rw instead of ro

however, even with rw, i can't delete any videos( or make new directories from ssh/samba), why?

Iridium, you're in the right family product, the model im working with is cubox-i2exw.

for the kodi.log :

output of "df -h":

and mount:

while i know how to use linux, windows is my primary OS. that and i manage most of my drives like (3) thru windows as well. i had forgotten about exFAT, i can try to see that will work. however, i would like keep NTFS if possible.

it was after installation, using gparted to shrink (2), i had to used windows to make and format (3) since i tried with linux and it was.......corrupted when windows tried to see it.

Hi there,i have a problem and google has not been helpful.
(and yes, i did try google first, because i sure someone will say "try google")

I have a 119GB microsd card divided into 3 partitions:
1)boot(fat32)
2)setting(ext4)
3)Media partition(Ntfs)

for some reason (3) is being treated as a system drive as in read-only, and i cant find the file that controls this behavior and fstab is empty as well
so, how can i get (3) to be read-write instead of read-only?

i might have to give up on this project anyway, the build you just uploaded, its doing the black screen glitch on my cubox-i 4x4.

thanks for your time and effort, but it looks like i have the short end of the straw for this aspect of "computers"....

ok, this probably foolish of me to ask and most likely to be denied...

any chance you can upload your build? my past experiences tend to show me as a more of a tester than builder....

hmmm.....

"qmake: could not exec '/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmake': No such file or directory"

is qmake necessary? this shows up every time...

even stranger is when i use "whereis qmake", it says "qmake: /usr/bin/qmake" not '/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmake'

are these files one and the same?
