  • HEIF add-on does not work for LibreELECT/KODI on Pi v5

    After re-read your suggestion, I went back to re-try nightly built latest nightly built on LE12. I gave up pretty quickly previously because boot failures. I was able to boot it up after a couple of "reboot", according to other thread.

    I tested two built, similar experience. Both with HEIF add-on

    LibreELEC-RPi5.aarch64-12.0-nightly-20231229-4e24516.img.gz (sha256)
    LibreELEC-RPi5.aarch64-12.0-nightly-20231230-36e39ea.img.gz (sha256)

    Only log entries I had was

    2023-12-30 10:58:48.624 T:2638 info <general>: Loading skin file: MyPics.xml, load type: KEEP_IN_MEMORY

    It was same for both 12-29 and 12-30

    The HEIF images were store on USB thumb drive instead of the SD card.

    I dont have offical power supply, but it's strong enough to be able to play H265 12 bit video. I figured it should be good enough?

    Is there any particular version I should test?

    I'm looking at https://test.libreelec.tv/11.0/RPi/RPi5/

    LibreELEC-RPi5.arm-11.0-nightly-20231216-b150c03.img - wont connect to WIFI

    LibreELEC-RPi5.arm-11.0-nightly-20231214-334ab81.img - same as 11.0.4, it doesn't work. just crash the GUI

    the changelog listed a bunch revision, but latest available for download is from 2023-12-18.

  • HEIF add-on does not work for LibreELECT/KODI on Pi v5

    Just picked up a Pi v5.

    Current version of HEIF add-on does not work. It'll crash as soon as try to go into folder with "picture"

    /storage/.kodi/temp/kodi.log shows it loads the add-on, but KODI just crash and restart.

    If I disable HEIF image decoder, I'm able to go into "picture".

    Not sure how to continue from this point


    For entertainment purpose, I tried HEIF image decoder on Raspberry Pi3 running 9.2.8. It appears to work.
