Thanks, but we prefer users to download our original release files from a trusted source .. so your post has been edited.

Sounds like a list of pirate channels. You'll need to show a clean debug log in future.

Looks like kodi.conf contains two lines. They are read in sequence so the second overwrited the first value set and is used. You can always remove the 8192 line and then the file only sets the 131072 value.

Once you have hardware, look in the usual location and then there's no need for hypothetical questions.

RPi4 runs better at 1080p native resolution with auto-switching to 4k only if required; use the whitelist to map 4k modes that you need for media. it's possible to enable [email protected] via config.txt if needed, but most real world media (only demo files) will not need this.

^ right path this time

If safe-mode is activated the problem install is preserved by moving it from /storage/.kodi to /storage/.kodi.FAILED - no copies are made.

Have you bothered to look in our add-on repo?

No logs .. no problem.

What you are seeking does not exist. The add-on situation will improve once K19 Alpha1 ships and more add-on creators update their add-ons.

Not within the Kodi GUI, no.

See if blacklisting the Intel driver allows the Radeon GPU to be detected, and if that doesn't work, see if blacklisting "amdgpu" or "radeon" works instead. If neither works it's probably a missing PCI device ID in one of the drivers. That's my guess (and it's a guess).

Create /storage/.config/kodi.conf with the required content and restart Kodi (or reboot).

Some of the tools are console only.. requiring you to open an SSH console. There is a web-based SSH console add-on in our repo which might be easier on a tablet device.

kodi-send allows you to send commands to Kodi once it is started, which could be used for auto-starting the screensaver. udev rules can run scripts on the insertion of removable media devices, and the scripts could find/copy image files on the inserted device to local storage and stop/restart the screensaver. There's no pre-existing guide with step by step instructions, but that's how I'd approach the task.

We are delighted that wizard piracy crapware does not run on our OS. Please read forum rules before you ask for any further help on that topic.

For any device >= 1GB RAM we are already load the OS into RAM, so zram makes no improvement (and can make things worse). Similarly there is no need for swap so it is not enabled by default (but can be enabled manually via a swap.conf file if desired). As a general rule you can assume that LE already did extensive testing on these kinds of OS level optimisations and ruled them in/out.

Netbooting is used by a microscopic percentage of our total users, and zero project staff. As long as we continue to receive the occasional "it still works" post when we make major changes there's no reason for us to remove netboot support, but we're equally not looking to expand support. Sorry.
