This is not supported by the default (Estuary) skin, but is something that can be done by other skins (so i've been told in the past - I don't have any specific recommendations).

I can create 720p 10-bit H264 samples that will play, and then I can tweak the encode settings so they will not play. How your 720p files play on an RPi4 is something only you can answer, unless you share samples that others can test. NB: Animé fans normally use high-spec Intel x86_64 devices to handle 1080p 10-bit H264 media.

10-bit H264 is not an industry standard so no hardware supports 10-bit H264 hardware decode. So you must software decode, and that requires a device with enough CPU to handle the media (the PC has enough, RPi3 does not). If you share a sample someone can test it on an RPi4.

It's not a debug log, but it shows Kodi starting and attempting to open a stream via plugin.audio.radio_de which fails due to "Temporary failure in name resolution" and the LE settings add-on shows similar errors. I can't see how this is due to partymode, but I can see a general networking error that probably results from Kodi starting before the network is up; so enable "wait for network" in the LE settings add-on (under Network) and see if that resolves the issue?

The dmesg shared shows me that:
a) This is Linux 4.4 which we stopped all development on some time ago
b) Nearly every major kernel subsystem shows a catalogue of errors, so the booted device-tree is not an accurate description of the hardware
c) Including the SDIO subsystem, which the WiFi/BT device is attached to, hence no WLAN
I don't track Rockchip development closely so I've no idea whether there is a device-tree file upstream for your box, but I would start over with current Linux 5.9 based images, because then codebase is the upstream mainline kernel not the vendor BSP and there's half a chance of someone caring to assist. Old Linux 4.4 images are an archaeology trip .. and we moved on.

^ this URL gives me the icon so I'd guess the add-on in the repo has been updated to use newer add-on structure with image asssets in /resources and you have an older version (cached?) that requests a URL that genuinely doesn't exist.

Enable additional logging for curl, reboot, demonstrate the problem, then share the full debug log.

DVB is one of the more challenging bits of our codebase. Support for USB and PCI type devices improves significantly in modern kernels as several of the major vendors "got their stuff together" and upstreamed their drivers; and the upstreaming processes ironed out lots of quirky crap code. However boxes with embedded cards like Amlogic devices are still a long way from being supported in mainline so the BSP kernels are still functionally best, but also aren't perfect (and the code is horrible) and the people who championed work on them appear to have stopped work and drifed away, so they aren't improving over time.

You need(ed) to shrink /dev/sda2, then move it to the end of the disk to create space at the front, then grow /dev/sda1 to fill the gap between them that was created. Gparted can do everything in a single operation but clean installing is usually quicker

"AlexELEC" is a Ukranian rip-off release. He originally cloned OE, then LE, and now I think CE, re-attributing all the commits/changes to himself and never contributing anything back to any of the codebases - although since his images are rammed full of piracy crapware like Acestream we're kind of okay not having anything to do with him/them.

The LE 9.2.6 image works for 60k other users, so it's not the image.

Just 'update' to the release v9.2.6 image, which can be done as a manual update in the LE settings add-on.

You have two choices:
a) Grow the boot partition by booting from another OS (e.g. Ubuntu LiveUSB) and using "gparted" to shrink and relocate the storage partition by 256MB so the boot partition can be made larger. This is not hard to do, but normally a very slow operation even with an SSD in the box.
b) Make a backup of the current storage partition, move it off-box, then clean install the same LE version to get the larger (512MB) boot partition and then restore the backup you took.
I'd personally take a third option:
c) Make a backup oof the current storage partition, move it off-box, then clean install the latest LE version and then unpack the backup and selectively restore DB files and config .. then reinstall add-ons at latest versions. In short, do a spring clean of the install, but keep the essentials from the old.

Current HDR support starts at 9th Gen (Gemini) and based on Q&A with Intel devs a couple of days ago Intel has no current plans to implement HDR for older Generations. We might try to influence that once Kodi support has matured, but I wouldn't get hopes up.

balbes150 add fip for odroid-n2-plus and update odroid-n2 · LibreELEC/amlogic-boot-fip@27c705a · GitHub After this commit N2 and N2+ use the same boot fips. I have separate odroid-n2 and odroiod-n2-plus folders only to stop people asking me "do the N2 files work on N2 plus?" .. the files in both folders are identical.

Is it possible to compile a build with latest stable version of Kodi?
Latest stable Kodi doesn't have any of the HDR plumbing included. Latest "unstable" Kodi is quite stable on x86_64 hardware, it's everything else (all the ARM devices) that's a bit exerimental at the moment.
