  • Ram/sd card storage

    Hello!

    If you read the thread, you see the RAM reported by KODi ist Not correct. If you Run top via SSH 8gb ist shown.

    From one posting:

    "Linux can use the full RAM for filesystem cache/buffers and background programs / docker containers etc can make use of it. I wouldn't recommend though to run too much stuff on the RPi, it's CPU is still a lot slower than current gen Intel/AMD CPUs.

    If you just want to run Kodi then 8GB is overkill. All programs are compiled as 32bit, so each process can use max 3GB (and Kodi won't even need that). 2 or 4GB will do just fine."

  • LibreElec and NVidia / AMD GPU's, current status

    So maybe a good Chance the Nvidia could Work.

    You Said it is your gaming PC so I suppose it is running windows. Have you tried to Install KODi on Windows (only the app)?

    I used this Combo on a Laptop for years because the Video drivers worked better than on Ubuntu and Openelec.

    Another Option is If your gaming PC uses a Intel CPU with build in GPU you can use that one in LE.

    Good News thank you for the Info.

    1. Have you checked the Username and Password on the Client and Server configuration User?

    This Message also comes Up If you don't have any Connection to the Server.

    2. Is Htsp and Pass activated at the configuration Stream Profile Menu?

    Pass should be activated and Set and IT should be Default. Htsp should be activated too.

    Quote from chewitt

    Kodi has not dropped VDPAU support for v19 and LE10 will still support nVidia chips. Our Stats show a continued decline in nVidia users and there are still more installs with older cards (legacy driver) than new ones. Although VDPAU is not technically "dead" there is no progress on 10-bit support so at some point (maybe Kodi v20) the axe will fall.

    Hello chewitt!

    My mistake... X11 Support will be removed...

    But due to this also VDPAU.

    "LibreELEC 10.0 will remove support for Xorg/X11 windowing on x86_64 hardware and move the entire distro to a common DRM/GBM video framework. This change will also impact nVidia users as Kodi v19 removes support for VDPAU"

    Development Update – LibreELEC

    Edit: I found one Statement from you that Nvidia EG gtx1050 has No Support in LE 10.

    4k Linux Question?

    v19 removal of VDPAU support

    I Said vpdau doesn't Support 4k HDR and is also No longer developed.

    And nvenc has No linux Support yet. AFAIK

    Also I read alot that LE will drop Nvidia Support for LE 11.

    You states the Same Here:

    LibreELEC use intel HD instead of nvidia GPU

    "Kodi in LE v8/v9 uses VDPAU for nVidia cards, which is no longer developed, and VDPAU only supports 8-bit HEVC. LE v10 will not support X11, so unless nVidia get their VDPAU replacement sorted in the next year, LE 11 will not support nVidia cards"

    And:

    Radeon graphics card for LibreELEC 10.0

    "I lost track of AMD cards years ago so cannot comment on that model, but GTX1050 is nVidia so it will not be supported in LE10 .. or to be more specific; it will run via the nouveau driver (slowly) and you won't want to use it."

    Correct me If I am wrong.

    It would be nice to have Nvidia support. Over the Last 10 years Nvidia was the Video Card of choice. Not only for LE also for VDR (yavdr, etc). And the image quality was way better (lancosz 3 scaler and pretty good deinterlacers) than with Intel or AMD If you could use them.

    Hello

    1. Hdhomerun simple ist installed.

    Ist this the pvr or the Video Plugin?

    For Testing I would remove it.

    2. Are you using Hardware from digital devices? Cuz the drivers are installed.

    3.which Tuner are you using ecactly?

    If thv Server is running on the Same PC Set the IP at the pvr thv htsp Client to 127.0.0.1

    Http Port 9981

    Htsp Port 9982

    Username and Password has to be Set according to your thv Server User settings

    And you have Setup tvh Server completly Up and running with TV Channels mapped/ configured and working ( you can Check this from the tvh Channels Page of your tvh server http://yourtvhserverip:9981/extjs.html)
