    The webserver is turned off, so yatse and browser are not working. Remote Control is also not working.

    Hi,

    For first settings, always better to use a USB wired/wireless keyboard. For remote: go to System - Services - Control and enable the "Allow remote control via HTTP". If appear something about "Authentification", at same page you can enable the authetification (or just confirm if want to use without).

    this basically means weak signal

    things that could be a problem

    - reception is too good and the tuner can't handle that -> attenuator for dvb

    - reception is too weak and the tuner can't handle that -> dvb antenna booster
    - USB cable has problems, USB switch has some problems -> try other cable or usb ports

    - driver is not properly working -> good luck :)

    I couldn't exclude the posibility of the defective DVB device, even if new and Hauppauge.

    If you can, try with another laptop/PC and/or another OS (Linux, Windows) to check if the hardware itself is working well.

    If you know what is working well, you are a step closer to find the problem.

    Yep... It's on...

    Based on the output of running SSH, it seems it's a windows issue, not a KODI problem..


    Which probably means I should be asking in a windows forum, but.. :D

    I'm using MobaXterm for terminal (and for litle upload-download) and Filezilla for SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol), now with Win11, worked well before with Win10 too. Don't remember to had any SSH issue with Libreelec.

    Uhm, no further comments, so I really understand the issue is within LE and I need to wait for LE11?

    Yes, the "famous" deinterlacer in the LE10 and LE11.

    Was added in the LE 11 nightly, to the ffmpeg, some kind of patch for better handling the deinterlace (the LE11 beta 10.95.0 don't have it, don't know if in the LE10 nightly was added or not). Make a backup (or better use another sd-card) and try the latest LE11 nightly, maybe you will see some improvement.

    I'm using 3 RPi3's, one with LE 10.0.4, two with LE11 nightly. For FHD live TV streams (h264, tvheadend), in case of LE10, sometimes appears some green artefacts, only for milliseconds, at the bottom of pictures. With the LE11 nightly, instead of green artefacts, some pixelation appear sometimes, mostly when major changes in the picture. L11 nightly with HD ready display (720p, the third RPi3) works better. I still have some SD channels, with mpeg2, works always without issues (RPi3, no HW decoding for mpeg2).

    Thanks for the advice. When I go to nightly downloads, do I want the 10.0 nightlies or the 11.0 nightlies to update my version from 10.95.0? I'm a little confused about the naming sstructure and which I'm currently on!

    I don't know if you can return (downgrade) to the LE10 without problems. To move from LE11 beta (10.95.0) to nightly it's working, at least I didn't had any problem with that. I copied the LE11 nightly package to the /storage/.update/ folder and reboot. I have 3 RPi3, two with LE11 nightly (LibreELEC-RPi2.arm-11.0-nightly-20230208), one remains yet with LE 10.0.4, I didn't seen any significant difference as normal user.

    I've since installed the original card and have wifi again, however libreelec keeps restarting randomly and I'm not getting picture on some live TV channels (audio works) that used to work. I'm thinking it could be related to the upgrade from 10.0.4 to 10.95.0? Is there any clues in the log file of what might be causing the restarts? http://ix.io/4nBR

    Hi,

    First... before any upgrade... BACKUP! It's took a few minutes, but sometimes save for you hours of reinstalling everything.

    About LE11 beta, if you already upgraded to LE11, try the latest LE11 nightly, that first LE11 beta (the 10.95.0, the 10.95.1 what is in the chewitt's post, I think isn't released yet) have some issues with live TV.

    And about the wifi card, you didn't mention your hardware, perhaps you can try to run an live-linux from usb (Ubuntu iso written to USB-stick) to verify if the suspected card is working or not.

    Hi,

    I have 3 RPi3B's, all with IR receiver connected to GPIO pins, and old HP Media center remote (RC6 protocol as MCE remote).

    I'm using some buttons remapped, the "Power" to send the specific "Power" IR code for my TV (GPIO IR Diode), "Pause" remapped to "Stop", and the "subtitle" remapped to "PlayerProcessInfo" in case of playing media and to "ContextMenu" for anything else. And all is done using this remote.xml file in userdata\keymaps:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

    <keymap>

    <global>

    <remote>

    <pause>Stop</pause>

    <power>System.Exec("/storage/.kodi/userdata/TV_Pwr.sh")</power>

    <subtitle>ContextMenu</subtitle>

    </remote>

    </global>

    <FullscreenVideo>

    <remote>

    <subtitle>PlayerProcessInfo</subtitle>

    </remote>

    </FullscreenVideo>

    </keymap>

    The "TV_Pwr.sh" is for sending to Kodi a player-stop command (kodi-send --action="Stop") and send the IR code for TV (ir-ctl -S nec:0x408 -S nec:0x408 -S nec:0x408 -S nec:0x408 -S nec:0x408 for my LG).

    If your remote codes is recognized (as standard protocol: nec), did you tried to use only your remote.xml (...<one>seek(-15)</one>...) without anything else?

    I've upgraded two Raspi4 from 9.2.8 to 10.0.4. One works just perfectly fine but the other one has some funny issue. After playing a file for quite some time (>30 minutes at least) the video somehow gets out of sync, it stutters for a short moment, then plays way too fast to catch up with the sound to stutter again and so on. This happens until playback is stopped. When restarting the video from the previous position, everything is fine again for some time before the issue comes up again. This happens for different formats, for example mk4 or ts streams so I would guess that this is not file related but some LE/Kodi issue.

    Is there any setting I could check or could the Raspi be damaged?

    I had too some strange audio-video desync...

    At system display settings, try to change the display resolution, use same resolution with another frequency, ex. 1920x1080p 60Hz change to 1920x1080p 50Hz. As you have two RPi's, both display have same settings?

    At least, that was the solution in my case. I think sometimes the player unable to correctly handle the "conversion" of movie resolution-FPS to display's FPS.

    This is not quite correct, the kernel update PR (which fixes glitches on all RPis and "no signal with some TVs on RPi4) and an ffmpeg patch update (which can potentially fix playback issues) were merged after 10.95.0 was built

    so long,

    Hi,

    Thank you for informations, that ffmpeg patch could be the difference.

    I had picture issues with theadend stream, h264, fullHD and the "famous" deinterlace...

    Works far better with the LE11 nightly (LibreELEC-RPi2.arm-11.0-nightly-20230129, device: RPi3B+).

    Well it is a Raspberry Pi 3B, if i am not mistaken it is not fully supported by the latest version. There may be some incompatibilities. Anway, it is no big deal. I will just turn it on after i turn on the tv :)

    I have 2 RPi3B and 1 RPi3B+, all have the edid data saved and didn't seen any issue because that. I think that edid data is used only at startup, instead to be read thru HDMI cable. And probably starting with the LE10, is the only way the RPi-LE to "know" what display have connected even if the display is switched off.

    And I'm waiting too, for to be the RPi4 available again on the market, without waiting time or too high price.

    Can anybody confirm that this release actually reads the config.txt. Because even when i add the line "hdmi_force_hotplug=1", i can't get any output on my tv if i turn the tv on "after" the pi. That wasn't the case before. After adding this line, i could turn the tv on anytime (before or after the pi is on) and could get tv output. Now i have to first turn the TV on and then plug in the pi. Which makes me think that this version ignores the lines added to config.txt.

    Hi,

    Start with TV on, SSH to RPi and use the "getedid create" command. That will save your display/TV parameters and will use it at every startup (even if the TV is off). If you want to know more: https://wiki.libreelec.tv/configuration/edid

    Hi, Check if at "System-Libreelec-Connections-Yourconnection-Edit" the "Connect Automatically" is enabled.

    Many times when the network connection is edited, that changing to "off" and need to enabled again.

    I did think of that, and will be trying it, but I don't know if it will work and remember someone saying about clone and touching some file.

    Two things:

    1. For backup (and clone) I'm using the "Win32DiskImager", latest version (1.0.0 - 2017) have option to don't save empty parts. So for cloning, I made a backup (image), then write the image to another card. That is complicated in case of big cards with a lot of data...

    2. I prefer to use small (high speed) SD card for system (LE), and for any other data a big USB-stick. It's a huge advantage, when I need to reinstall the LE and don't need to take care about all other files, downloads, music, video... because is stored in the USB-stick...

    I've decided to upgrade the 64GD micro SD card in the RPi3 I use for TVHeadend to a 128GB card. I know I can clone from a smaller to a larger card but there's something about touching a file to tell the Pi on the next boot that it should expand to fill the space.

    My questions are a) which file and b) how do you touch a file?

    I don't know if the LE able to do something like this, to resize the partition what is mounted and in use. Maybe thru SSH and some linux commands? If I don't mistake, at the first boot is created the "userdata" (Ext4) partition using the available space.

    If you probably already use a PC to clone the card, why don't use a partition tool to resize the partition on the new card? Like "Minitool Partition Wizzard Free" (Windows) or "Gparted" (Linux).

    It sounds so complicated. You guys need to be honest when releasing Generic stable versions. No Nuc , No intel...

    It sounds so complicated.

    It's not complicated, just try to understand how it works...

    The remote commands are received by the hardware (in your case beelink ap34) and processed by the software (LibreElec - Linux).

    The shutdown works, because all is on, the hardware with loaded software... when you want to power up... no software loaded to process that command... And that it's not only for this hardware, it's same for Raspberry and others.

    Even if i send a wake on Lan , this means more skills to do that. And Yatse is no option for me.

    I just want to get working my remote. For sure i can press the power button manually but it is annoying.

    If for you is too hard to learn a bit about your device (wake on lan options), and this is so "annoying", please think about the houndreds and thousands of hours what developers spent to made this Libeelec, free...
