  • [x86-64] DVD playback of physical discs not working since LE12

    Quote from chewitt

    I think that's unlikely, but it's easy to test with older LE official releases and/or nightly LE12 images with older versions installed.

    I tried with latest LE11 (11.0.6) - works as intended, DVDs are playing fine.
    LE12 - no chance, DVDs are not recognized correctly.

    I am not familiar with github but will try if I can find component version differences.

    Additionally, I checked the current firmware of the BD drive and updated it to the latest available version, but that makes no difference.

  • [x86-64] DVD playback of physical discs not working since LE12

    Since release of LibreELEC 12 physical DVD disc playback is not working anymore on my setup.
    For validation I tried a Live USB Stick with LibreELEC 11, which was working fine.

    I have tried a development build of LibreELEC 13 on a Live USB Stick (LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-13.0-nightly-20250622-a162b37),
    but with no success - same issue as with version 12.

    My setup:
    LibreELEC 12.0.2 (Generic x86 64)
    Asrock J3455-ITX (Intel Apollo Lake)
    Lite-On iHOS104 BD Drive

    Log excerpts showing the issue imho (Live USB Generic.x86_64-12.0.2):

    ... and this is what it looks like on LE11 (Live USB Generic.x86_64-11.0.6, same DVD disc as before):

    From the warning "Libdvd: Can't seek to block 256" it looks like the disc is unreadable, but since it is playable with LE11 this might be another issue.
    I can provide full Logs, if needed.

    Anyone else out there who still uses physical DVD discs with LE12 and got it working?

    Thanks and regards,
    Marco

  • LibreELEC (Nexus) 11 Beta1

    I have used "Limited" in Kodi video system setting in the past, with the LibreELEC 11 Beta1 I am getting washed out colors with that setting.

    Switching to "Full" seems to crush blacks on first sights.

    I am using an Asrock J3455-ITX (Apollo Lake) and my TV is not capable of displaying Full RGB.

    Found a workaround to enable full range RGB on GBM using proptest in autostart.sh after searching this and Kodi.tv forum.

    Now video levels are back to normal for me.
