Or unpack the .tar file and simply overwrite the boot files in the first partition which is VFAT and readable on all OS.

As Thoradia is no longer active and his tools/repo do not support current releases, I'm going to close this thread.

S/PDIF supports 2-ch but if you configure pass-through and pack those channels with IEC958 frames correctly you get 5.1 audio.

Current nightlies are K20 and releases are K19. Downgrade to an earlier K20 nightly should be fine. Downgrade to 10.0/K19 will need add-on changes but you probably get away with it. Downgrade to 9.2 will need a clean reinstall.

Have you used a Kodi key mapping add-on?

Code
xbmc.powerdown() => powerdown()^ like that, in the script

Any hints how I can enable SPDIF output?
Start by writing the dw-hdmi kernel driver code to support S/PDIF output. Finish by connecting the cable. Add "lots of dev stuff" in the middle

1. Known and cannot currently be changed. Some kind of tonemapping to mute it might be possible in the future.
2. ??
3. Also not possible, but Kodi only switches to HDR during playback .. so just don't play HDR media if you don't want HDR

The flirc receiver is super-sensitive and in my house frequently detects IR bounced off walls when kids point the remote in random directions intead of directly at the box (the main remote I use is BT so they aren't trained to point stuff). I have a collection of old TV remotes which are solidly built and not overlapping with the TV, although these days I use the TV as a dumb panel, there's no terrestrial cable or other box .. Kodi provides all

You can create a custom /storage/.config/xorg.conf based on the embedded default conf, but with changes for screen rotation. I don't know what the parameters are, but you should be able to find them online.

The saying "If it works, don't fix it" always applies

FLAC is a lossless format, and sometimes used for multi-channel audio, but not a pass-through format.

The feature is implemented entirely by the Android app sending API commands to the Kodi instance. AFAIK there is no additional setup to be done on an LE box vs. any other supported platform. It's best to ask for support in the app forum support thread in Kodi forums (assuming it has one) as it's really nothing to do with LE.

Kodi uses both locations, but files of the same name in /storage/.kodi/userdata override the embedded ones in /usr/share/kodi/system/

As there are many opinions and standards for dateTime formats around the world the best option (and likely the only one project staff would accept) is to support the current behaviour as default so nothing breaks on upgrade for existing users, but offer a custom filename option that supports free text and date % variables so people can define their own format if they prefer, whatever that might be.
As this touches our settings add-on, the main challenge will be finding a Python person to code/implement the changes
