Is it possible to convert videos from h264 to h265 within libreelec on raspberry 4?

I tried with tools.ffmpeg-tools with syntax ffmpeg -i sample.mkv -c:v libx265 sample.mp4

but I get error Unknown encoder 'libx265'

Please update comskip to latest master https://github.com/erikkaashoek/Comskip/commits/master

Thanks, update works again!

If I try to update bootloader on rpi4 to latest beta I get following output:

I 'm on latest nightly build. Does bootloader update to beta release not work anymore?

There are only builds for le 11 with kodi nexus.

Could someone provide builds from latest le 10 branch for rpi 4?

Sorry, but that is beyond my knowledge.

I'm also experiencing issues while doing large file transfers to usb3 ssd during livetv. So to me it seems some kind of usb weakness of rpi because there are no such issues with (much more powerful) x86 machine.

I switched my tuner to sundtek skytv 8 but with no improvement.

After some hours of debugging with sundtek support I was told that rpi (graphics driver) is locking system when playback is started. That's why usb is blocked, dvb buffer runs dry and some data of livetv gets lost.

Could this be improved somehow?

Here you can find the build I'm using myself

I realised I have tbs 5980, should this build work there too?

Hi, could you please provide a test build, I have no build environment here.

I will try recording on network, signal strength shouldn't be the issue.

I tried Generic build with same usb tuner and dvb cable with no problems.

EDIT: Today I tried recording on network, if I start playback during recording I get discontinuity errors.

Quote from elliottmc

I guess it would be useful to know which scenarios cause the problem and which do not.

I tried the following scenarios with no success

le and recording on sdcard

le on sdcard, recording on usb ssd

le and recording on usb ssd

le and recording on usb stick

The issue only occurs with hd channels, sd are ok.

Issue solved for me with the following solution:

No sound from HDMI audio on NUC board · Issue #2396 · clearlinux/distribution · GitHub

Today I tried to boot from usb ssd, I still get continuity counter errors in tvh if I playback an ongoing recording.

I don't get hdmi audio to work on my HP EliteDesk 800 G4. analog audio works

dmesg http://ix.io/3xsa

aplay -l http://ix.io/3xsm

lsmod http://ix.io/3xsn

I would be thankful for every hint.

Thanks for quick reply, will the addon come back?

I'm using build LibreELEC (community): nightly-20210423-5701db2 on rpi4.

My usb dvb box TBS 5980 doesn't get recognized in tvheadend.

Hi, I have the same issue with rpi4, no solution for me so far.

discontinuity errors when playback during recording

I'm using rpi4 2 GB with tvh and a technotrend s2-4600 dvb card.

power supply is good, no throttling, dvb card is attached to usb2 port.

Recordings work quite good but if I start playback during the recording I get discontinuity errors in tvh log.

Could this be improved?
