It's also important to keep the bootloader updated as there're several fixes regarding to SD card.

rpi-eeprom/release-notes.md at master · raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom · GitHub

There's an example how to easily upgrade the bootloader to latest one:

RE: Is it possible already to set up a rpi4 with kernel 5.4?

Also make sure you don't use any suspicious / banned add-ons which seems to be the quite often reason of such issues.

See here: Official:Forum rules/Banned add-ons - Official Kodi Wiki

Edit - Arghh, sorry - I have overlooked it's RPi 2B so my post is a bit irrelevant regarding to bootloader update (which is valid for RPi 4B)...

I have installed easybcd on the disk where windows 8.1 is and I have given an option and it has eliminated the windows boot, how can I recover it?

This should be enough:

fdisk /mbr

You'll just need a bootable media with FDISK, for instance: https://www.techwalla.com/articles/how-t…table-usb-fdisk

Attach a USB keyboard. Press the PrtScr button, and find the screenshots folder in the LibreELEC storage.

Unfortunately this does not work on LE 9.80 / 9.95 / 10 Nightly anymore - only Kodi menu can be saved currently. Perhaps in future this will be supported again.

Well, the path is a bit different but here it is:

Click the Shift button and you should see the top row changed so the @ character is there instead of 2 .

I have to confirm this issue after more intensive testing through several past days and it is really a nightmare.

It does not matter which Tvheadend backend is used, the same issue happens on both 4.2 and 4.3 Alpha, quite often during seek operations but randomly. The same issue on 2 different RPi 4B devices (2 GB, 1 GB), latest several LE 10 Nightly builds (currently 20210321).

So far I was not able to reproduce it with any specific tasks that I could describe but it seems to be related to this common error message in the log:

LibreELEC tvheadend[1677]: htsp: 127.0.0.1 [ | Kodi Media Center ]: Disconnected

In the same second it's reconnected again but the Timeshift data are lost.

If I am not mistaken, this means the Tvheadend client (8.2.3.1) is losing the connection to Tvheadend backend so the itself Client could be the reason of the issue? I have tried to increase the Connection / Response timeouts from defaults 10 / 5s to 20 / 15s but it did not help.

CEC doesn't come back until I reboot

As Kodi is detecting the HDMI devices at start, perhaps just restarting Kodi should be enough instead of rebooting whole LibreELEC:

systemctl restart kodi

As a temporary workaround I would then map this command to some unused IR Remote key.

Perhaps these examples could help:

The cable works fine with rpi3B and several other boxes. This is only on pi4 LE.

As RPi 4B has micro HDMI connectors (different from RPi 3B's), I suppose there's not only the cable you reported working with RPi 3B but also some adapter which can reduce the signal quality as well...

Also AFAIK the parameter gpu_mem=320 is obsolete in LE10 due to different drivers used and gpu_mem=76 should be enough.

I would just like to mention when FFmpeg Tools 9.80.11.114 Add-on is installed in LE 10, the path to ffmpeg is /storage/.kodi/addons/tools.ffmpeg-tools/bin/ffmpeg

Well, if the only reason for using the docker originally for simple publishing MQTT data, your solution (despite it works) looks as huge overkill...

I would use a simple python script instead. The working example is here:

Yeah. Thanks. While as I replied in #3, there are only options which have no relation to the which-path-will-be-showed options.

The menu path I published is different. Check it carefully.

Go to Kodi menu Settings - LibreELEC - Services and try to configure the Samba options there.

The important details regarding to your HW type / setup are missing so it's hard to say.

But make sure your HDD has enough power. Connect it through USB HUB with external power supply as RPi's USB ports have limited output current which might not be sufficient for most HDDs.

"locale.Error: unsupported locale setting"

I am not an expert in this matter but it looks there coul'd be an issue with language settings... Try to set the Language option in Kodi menu Settings - Interface - Regional to English (I suppose you have set a different language).

Quote from Klojum

Options don't just simply disappear.

I am afraid in this case it really "disappeared" between LE versions, AFAIK also some update in past (most likely some Nightly build a couple months ago) replaced the /flash/config.txt with some default one, different from previous so the original settings was lost.

Perhaps the dtparam=audio=on should be included in /flash/config.txt by default as missing this audio output option (Analogue jack) is confusing many LE / RPi 4B users.

Great, thanks for the feedback. So you may mark this thread as resolved.
