Can you please elaborate how to apply this patch? I would like to be able to play hevc files without system reboot,
Thank you
Assuming that you have a linux distribution:
- flash image as usual on a SD card
- mount first partition of sd card on your linux machine
# mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /some_mountpoints
- explode libreelec filesystem with squashfs tools
# mkdir tmp_dir
# cd tmp_dir
# unsquashfs /some_mountpoints/SYSTEM
at this point under squashfs-root you can find the exploded filesystem of libreelec.
- replace file squashfs-root/usr/share/kodi/system/shaders/GLES/2.0/gles_yuv2rgb_basic.frag

- repackage squash filesystem, copy to sd card and umount
# mksquashfs squashfs-root/ SYSTEM -comp gzip
# cp SYSTEM /some_mountpoints/SYSTEM
# umount /dev/mmcblk0p1
that's all.
NB: this patch disable BT.709 color conversion that is slow on my mali 400 because it's use the pow math function.
