Display MoreOkay so that matches:
2024-03-31 (726b493): #8780 kodi-binary-addons: update to latest version
which I believe you are reporting as broken, and the previous build you are reporting as working:
2024-03-30 (ae242cb): #8778 linux (Dragonboard): drop EXT2_FS to match other targets
It looks like there was only one commit between those two builds: https://github.com/LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv/pull/8780
and that only affects binary addons. Is your issue with local files, or using an addon?
So sorry about this - in order to prove to myself that I wasn't being crazy I reloaded the 726b493 build. Turns out that I must be!
All my HEVC files (they are all local by way of a new 4tb nvme drive - love the new Pi5 having this feature) now play flawlessly.
Only thing I didn't try when it wasn't working yesterday was the old IT Crowd catch phrase "Have you tried turning it off and on again".
Once again, sorry to have wasted your time.
This might not help you, but if you have still trouble, on the current nightly (b5ce01c) the hevc files I have tried (some uhd hdr promo movies) run fine.... the hevc decoder which is used seems to be even using a hardware decoding. (at least the info says so).
What I remember right now, on the pi4 I had the same with certain files, but I think that was more as the persons who made that used some uncommon formats like hevc 8bit or so which made problems with hw decoding.
Dont think I have those files still here, otherwise I would check if those still would make trouble
All working now - it was just a simple PBKAC.
