  • Midnight command isn't running with 256 color skin

    Hi,

    the command line file manager midnight commander is installed together with an addon (system tools i think). On my normal ubuntu mc is running with the skin modarin256.ini because the default skin is really ugly. But i can't start mc with the skin on libreelec (mc -S /storage/modarin256.ini). There is the error

    Code
    Unable to use '/storage/modarin256.ini' skin with 256 colors support
on non-256 colors terminal.
Default skin has been loaded

    Can i run the terminal in 256 color mode?

    There is nothing in the log that helps solving the problem:

  • Samba Server is sometimes not working

    Hi,

    i had no Problems with rthe Samba Server with LibreELEC 9. After a new installation of LE 10 the samba server is sometimes down. I see the directories in the home dir but to my HDDs. After a restart all is working fine. Is there a problem with the server? I have the problem with all clients (android smartphone and tablet, windows on my desktop computer and linux on my notebook).

  • Run a Shell-Script with script progress as Notification

    Hi,

    i used a script with LibreELEC 9 that checks for new files in a "sync-folder" on the Flash drive on my Network router and moves the files to the Hard drive on the HTPC. The scripted runs in background and there was so notification while its running or after completing the process.

    Is there a way to show a Notification while the script is running? something like "copying file 1 of 3 - <name-of-the-file>? similar to the notification i have when i update the database?

  • How can i start LibreELEC with the same resolution/fps every time?

    Hi,

    i have a 4k-tv but i don't use it when watching videos with my htpc - the hardware is top weak. sometimes the resolution is 4096x2160 or 3840x2160. This is annoying because i can't navigate kodi without stuttering. Maybe this is because sometimes i start the htpc before my tv and sometimes the tv is already running when the htpc starts. But its not a solution to power off the tv before power on the htpc only because libreelec/kodi can't save the resolution settings.

    How can i do this? How can i save this settings so that every time i have the same resolution and the same framerate?
