    So,

    what you're telling me here,

    is that I have to install clean, from scratch, this build in order to make amazon/netflix work?!


    No, there is just an issue where updating your addons on the current build downloads an incompatible copy of inputstream.adaptive which breaks Netflix. It will be fixed in the next build which will be ready shortly, recompiling libreelec is a very time consuming process, roughly 2-3 hours each time I do it.

    I have also removed the kodinerds repo from the next build and added the netflix repo, and enabled all the steaming media plugins by default so it's less hoops to jump through when installing netflix on a clean box.

    Short question, I have to flash your build from first post, then it's update automatically? Right?

    Yes

    What happens is the box will check the server daily to see if there is an update, if there is it will then download it and you will get a notification on both the update being available and also again when the download is finished.

    When the download is finished you just reboot the box and it will be applied automatically. The notification will keep reminding you until you do.

    is that really a solution, staying on an old version of inputstream? cos the new version works with other builds. and what if new versions of netflix plugin stop working with this version of inputstream?

    It was merely a suggestion not a solution and as I already said this will be rectified later on today.

    The version it is updating with is not any newer but was built for a different platform.

    i may found the issue. its the inputstream addon.

    Starting with a fresh install of Kodi.
    Add-ons>Download>Install from repo>Kodinerds>Addon repo>Netflix addon repo>Install
    Back to Install from repo>Netflix>Video>Netflix>Install>0.12.6>Ok
    Open Netflix>Login>Enjoy =D

    -> this works

    since we have auto update enabled, once inputstream addon gets updated automatically. then netflix will not work anymore. not sure why its incompatible with your build.

    Your right there, the updated addon does seem to cause an issue, I will look into this now.

    -edit
    Looks like the updated addon causes a segmentation fault because the included libraries wasn't built for our devices. The kodi repository is pointing to Raybuntus OdroidC2 because there isn't one available for the S905 for Libreelec v9 at present,

    Best option is to disable the auto update specific to the inputstream.adaptive addon for now.

    I will have to compile all of the kodi binary addons and host them on my server and change the build to reflect this.

    Yay, it works! :D


    If this info was included in the first post, it would have saved us from a lot of frustration.


    I could of saved you the frustration a lot sooner if I had a proper bug report from the start, as I said in a previous post, most problems can be resolved in minutes if I know what is causing them but without any useful information I can't really help and it only took 3 days for someone to provide what I needed, I'm glad it's all good for you now :)



    Thank you, this is exactly what I needed.

    Following your steps to the letter I indeed got the same result and Kodi crashed/restarted.

    Your doing it all wrong, step 4 is unnecessary and I think step 7 is what has caused your problems, libwidevinecdm.so is already included in my build so this is not necessary.

    Follow the instruction below, confirmed working

    Starting with a fresh install of Kodi.
    Add-ons>Download>Install from repo>Kodinerds>Addon repo>Netflix addon repo>Install
    Back to Install from repo>Netflix>Video>Netflix>Install>0.12.6>Ok
    Open Netflix>Login>Enjoy =D

    GDPR-2 Any idea how to solve Netflix not playing.

    I need more information from people because it seems to work for some (me included) and not for others. Have you tried setting your timezone settings as another user suggested?

    It's hard to diagnose a problem when people make a post to report it and then give absolutely no information to back it up.

    Exact steps taken to reproduce a bug is essential.

    How have you installed the build (microusb/usb/nand)
    Have you updated or done a complete fresh install
    Steps taken to produce the bug
    Any other steps you have taken in your install procedure or configuration of Kodi

    I need a step by step of everything you have done to reproduce the bug on my end, when I can reproduce it then I can diagnose it because I'm basically private messaging people and waiting hours for a response for something I could possibly resolve in minutes. It's not just frustrating for you guys but it's also frustrating for me because I take it personally, I do not want to give you guys something that doesn't work or is only half baked and I do care about the quality of the work that I'm putting out there.

    still just crashing in netflix here are the logs

    fCSC

    and

    hchU

    Netflix works here and it is working for others, could you try a fresh installation of everything.

    This version works with NF :thumbup:

    A couple of annoying bugs:

    1. Audio defaults to the audio description stream. Is there a way change that?

    2. Video resolution is one step below the stream's native resolution. For example, the info in the list says 1080p but it plays 720p. When the info says 720p, is plays 480p.

    The audio stream can be selected in the audio settings and then set to default as for your second issue as ChimeyJimmey says this is down to the inputstream addon settings.

    I've downloaded the 1.0.1 release.

    Burnt the .img to the microSD with Rufus, Libreelec boots fine the first time.

    Then, after the first reboot, it gives me the error in the pic.

    That's very strange, I wonder if you have a hardware issue, I have tried running from the internal nand and a USB flash drive and not had that issue, I will try a microSD card later on tonight.
