escalade,

I just stumbled across the Anbox project that allows running Android apps in an LXC container. It's still in alpha, but it might be fun to look into adding this for sorta-native Netflix, HBO, etc. using their respective Android apps.

Thanks for the tip. Have to try that.

Thats what Im trying to do. Aswell.

Launch from kodi menu but I still have no luck........

Hi again every one. I cant get the .sh shortcuts to work with System.Exec

I have created a .sh named it launcher and placed in storage.

If I use ssh and type

/storage/launcher.sh it works right away.

But when I use XBMC.System.Exec(/storage/launcher.sh)

in menu it doesnt work. Tried without XBMC at start as well. Tried lots of different skins to. Does System.Exec work that way?? Or am I missing something???

Hope someone can help. Thanks in advance.

I put my Docker containers in Favourites instead. That's where addons go by default anyway, and it's less work. Add them to /storage/.kodi/userdata/favourites.xml. I copied the System.Exec from Home.xml of the skin and it works for me. I can now start Docker containers (via shell scripts) from Favourites. System.Exec command should look like this:

XBMC.System.Exec("/storage/script.sh")

And of course the script file has to be set as executable.

I found some Docker containers that I want to start from the Kodi main menu. How did you add Chrome and Spotify to the main menu?

Would it be possible to convert a LE system that was installed with legacy boot to uefi? I have LE on one ssd and Windows on another, and I use Syslinux to multiboot.

I noticed there's a new version of MakeMKV, but the beta key hasn't been uppdated on their forum. So should the lib.multimedia.makemkv-8.2.0 addon still work?

After updating to the 20170912 build I get some problems.

1) Tvheadend service doesn't start.

2) My wlan adapter doesn't work. Looks like no driver and firmware are loaded. I see it with lspci and lsusb :

lspci|grep Qualcomm
04:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR9462 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)

lsusb|grep Qualcomm
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0cf3:3004 Qualcomm Atheros Communications AR3012 Bluetooth 4.0

Ok, but is it for AVX or AVX2? Sandy Bridge was the first to have AVX. Advanced Vector Extensions - Wikipedia

What's the advantage with the intel-core-avx builds?

You need a 64-bit kernel to run 64-bit code. The current 64-bit kernel build is limited in features (e.g. no hardware video decode).

Do you mean kernel 4.8?

Exactly, 64-bit is simply the future.

I see that the Linux 4.8 kernel now supports the BCM2837 SoC of Raspberry Pi 3. Also in 64 bit : Raspberry Pi 3's BCM2837 SoC Now Supported By Mainline Linux 4.8 - Phoronix

So we could soon see 64 bit LibreELEC for Pi 3?

Will MakeMkv ever be in the LE repo?
