  • RPI3 A2DP audio sink support

    Yes it is possible, but it is not supported by default.

    On the RPi we do not use pulseaudio or alsa via Kodi. Kodi has it's own special Pi sink that it outputs directly to.

    So in order to get it to work, you need to load the snd-bcm2835 module (might be different on the RPi3)

    Code
    echo "snd-bcm2835" > /storage/.config/modules-load.d/snd-bcm2835.conf


    then reboot.
    Then you need to load the udev module

    Code
    pactl load-module module-udev-detect


    This will give you the new pulseaudio sink
    Then you need to see what sink and source you want to use.

    Code
    pactl list short
pactl set-default-sink <sink-name>
pactl set-default-source <source-name>

    So this is why we don't do this by default. There is no universal way to set it up across all platforms.


    PS. this will probably corrupt your audio output from kodi, so after you will want to do this

    Code
    rm /storage/.config/modules-load.d/snd-bcm2835.conf


    and reboot.


    Also, we never said this functionality would work. We simply support outputing audio from kodi to a bluetooth speaker, that's all.

  • Transmission with Docker

    Quote from zequiqac


    I was trying for several hours to adapt the plain, unformatted tranmission.service RPI2 unsuccessfully , because unfortunately I do not have the experience to take over. I would appreciate enormously that could raise the tranmission.service for RPI2 file. thank you very much and sorry !.

    I'm just in the process of building the docker images and pushing them to docker hub, but this will take a few days (maybe a week)

    if you want you can do this

    Code
    cd /storage
wget https://github.com/lrusak/Dockerfiles/archive/master.zip
unzip master.zip
cd Dockerfiles-master/arm/transmission
./build.sh
systemctl enable /storage/Dockerfiles-master/arm/transmission/transmission.service
systemctl start transmission.service

  • LibreELEC Retroplayer 8.0 Test Builds

    Quote from flipside


    I updated my existing le7.0 build and kodi got into a restart loop over one of my addins, reverting back fixed it. I had been playing with some of the tvaddon stuff so the issue could easily be there
    Makes me think I need to clean install. (oh I do have the log files if your interested)

    I believe the problem is with kodi and the inputstream add-ons. Hopefully this will be fixed shortly.

  • Transmission with Docker

    In that case just copy the transmission.service file and save it in /storage/.config/system.d/ and edit it until applicable.

    I actually have a transmission docker file for RPI but I won't be able to post it till later tonight.

  • LibreELEC Retroplayer 8.0 Test Builds

    New LibreELEC Retroplayer builds!

    So these new builds are based on LibreELEC master and garbear's latest work from here

    These new builds aren't quite functionally on par with the old builds as garbear has been working on refactoring retroplayer into the latest Kodi codebase.

    So if you want to play games stay on the old builds. I will leave them there until we are functionally on par.

    We always appreciate testers though and it's a good way to test both the new retroplayer Kodi and the current state of LibreELEC master.

    Builds are still located here, retroplayer

    More builds will be coming soon, for now Generic and RPi2 builds are all I am providing.

    Happy Testing!

  • Transmission with Docker

    I have included a sample transmission systemd service for docker (for x86_64 only)

    to use it do

    Code
    systemctl enable /storage/.kodi/addons/service.system.docker/examples/transmission.service
    Code
    systemctl start transmission

    then the default username and password is transmission, password.

    this creates directories in /storage/transmission for downloads, watchdir and config

    Thanks for hint - will check tomorrow and let you know the result.

    please do because I can possibly patch the device id into the driver for the next release

  • Running Xorg on Raspberry Pi through Docker

    Quote from escalade


    More success! Xorg doesn't detect input devices because udev isn't working inside Docker. Solved by adding manual configuration in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-inputs.conf:

    Chromium segfaults for me both in Debian and in Arch, not sure what's up with that, but I got Firefox up and running so I'm happy

    pretty cool. I'll setup a repo soon for dockerfiles related to LibreELEC. Then we can create one specifically for chromium or firefox.
