    The initialization of the CEC adapter has a bug. On your working LE 12.0.1:

    On your non-working LE 13 nightly (20241103-f662bea):

    Code

    2024-11-05 16:49:04.832 T:1046    debug <general>: Thread PeripBusCEC 140732832476800 terminating

    In the working log, the CEC adapter is registered at /dev/cec1, in the non-working log at Linux.

    I've already reported the bug to the devs. Stay tuned.

    Ok, if I can't do anything on my side. I'll wait with my rpi3 again

    Just update to the latest LE 13 nightly from SSH:

    Code
    cd /storage/.update
    wget https://test.libreelec.tv/13.0/RPi/RPi5/LibreELEC-RPi5.aarch64-13.0-nightly-20241103-f662bea.img.gz
    reboot

    Hi, I'm just discovering LE, is it useful to do it every night? Is it a “stable” version ?
    And if I make a backup of version 12, can I come back to it without worrying ?

    The NTFS-3G add-on should be in the LE repo (at least the LE13 repo, it might not be merged for LE12 yet) under Services. There's also an NTFS-PROGS add-on in the Tools section which has some of the utility binaries.

    Drives that disconnect and reconnect on their own normally trace back to bad power supplies and/or bad USB cables.

    Searching on github I found it. It is in .mk format. But on libreelec I don't see anything at all, in service, extension program....

    My drive is powered by an independent power supply. I programmed the enclosure so that the drive stops spinning after 5 minutes when it is not working. But that is a question.

    LE automounts local devices via udev and remote devices through systemd .mount units: /etc/fstab is nothing more than a stub file to stop some binaries complaining that it doesn't exist. It is not writeable since it's inside the read-only squashfs SYSTEM file.

    If you haven't unmounted the NTFS filesystem cleanly from the current device it will probably be in a "dirty" state and that needs to be cleared on Windows using chkdsk.exe before you can attempting mounting under Linux again.

    Have a look at the NTFS-3G add-on in the "Services" section of the LE repo. This (added in the last week) add-on overrides the in-kernel driver and uses the older NTFS-3G userspace driver approach used in older LE releases.

    Yes, the clean disk is recognized, but if I modify it, add a file, it is no longer. Moreover I notice that it disconnects and reconnects it quite often, I don't know why it does that. For the ntfs-3g addon, I can't find it in the repo ??

    Can I install it manually ?

    The only mention of a USB drive device in the system log ^

    The "Media removed, stopped polling" makes me suspect power issues. You can add "usb_max_current_enable=1" to config.txt and see if that makes a difference. Note that RPi5 needs a decent PSU (official one is recommended).

    Hi,

    My hard disk is powered by the HUB power supply, then I use a HUB to connect it to the RPi 5.

    HD > HUB (PS) > RPi 5

    only the microsd is powered by the RPi 5.

    i've done some quick research and i see that there are problems with nfts disks.

    because when I put my hard disk and microphones back on my RPi 3, they don't appear any more either. so the problem also occurs on my RPi 3, whose setup I've had for many years without a hitch.

    when I run a check on my Windows it detects errors that it corrects, and then the disk goes up it goes up, but if I reboot and remove then put it back again.

    So I don't know what's going on with libreELEC to make it do that. :/

    Hi,

    I'm new to LibreELEC.

    I was on a RPi 3B OSMC, then today I bought a RPI 5 and installed LibreELEC.

    One thing I've noticed on startup is that my hard disk doesn't mount (even when unplugged and replugged). My USB flash drive, which does mount, takes a long time to mount.

    On my RPi3, when I boot it up, it mounts almost immediately.

    I enter the lsblk with putty to see, but nothing.

    if you know what to do :?:

    :)
