Taking things in a different direction, why do you need 4K60?

I ask because so far the only media I've seen in that format is test media, not real media, and the GUI will perform (and look) better at 1080p than 4K because processing a 1080p GUI takes less effort and the TV will do a better job of upscaling Kodi 1080p output than Kodi will do upscaling a 720p or 1080p skin to 4K. Since real 4K media is 99.99% in [email protected], there's no need for the config.txt enable 4K60 (better for Pi thermals and power).

Doesn't explain why you can't achieve 4K60, but if you don't need to.. ?

ISTR we added the module in LE 9.2.1.

The additional folder would be unpacked as "restore" is basically an untar of the file.

Publishing the release allows anybody to download it (manually) but making it available for auto-update is a separate step. If it's not done, eventually users complain and I normally go set things, but it's about time someone else learned the not-difficult proces - because they keep forgetting. Until then, I guess you all have to wait patiently.. or do a manual update.

So i tried: to install some script from fusion repo as suggests a lot of videos - it didn't work because "installation failed".

^ The moment you installed a banned repo on your device, we lost all interest in helping.

The BSP kernel and drivers are handle memory management differently to the mainline kernel so any comparisons are invalid. Ping "narmstrong" and/or "jbrunet" in the #linux-amlogic channel on freenode IRC to chat about the emmc errors.

I guess .. Xorg and Raspbian isn't something I've ever played with though. What do you mean by differences in BT logic control?

It doesn't work because the release manager repeatedly forgets to enable it .. CvH

The best solution is to experiment and see which works best for your eyeballs and media collection.

Kodi does not support output to multiple devices and there is no no support for it in LE (unless handled in hardware, e.g. old laptops). If you want to explore this in any way you'll need to stick with Raspbian.

hy please help. Whats download x96a905x3 max + 4gb/64gb.

Index of /

Wat tar.gz file? Thx

The AMLG12 "box" image, the X96max dtb will probably work.

You can either add "debugging" to kernel boot params in config.txt and then reboot and connman will be running in debug mode which means the systemd journal (and the entire system) will be very verbose .. or you can stop connmand from running (systemctl stop connmand) and manually restart it with -d to run in debug mode.

I have to get someone who does code to review the changes before merging. On one hand we don't particularly care much as all official images are now running Lima not libmali. On the other it's bad form to merge something that causes problems.

Allwinner support is still in a pre-alpha experimental state, albeit progressing nicely. If you go back in time more than a few months you'll end up with a non-functional device .. so there are no "old" images to use.

If you add the keys manually via the SSH console make sure to remove ".apps.googleusercontent.com" from the ClientID else it won't work.

Looking at the original sources.xml shared in post #5 I notice the shares have spaces in their names and the paths are not quoted or escaped. I'm not sure how Kodi handles this, but it might be something to look into.

e.g. Escaping:

        <source>
            <name>TV Shows</name>
            <path pathversion="1">smb://192.168.1.111/Media\ Library/TV\ Shows/</path>
            <allowsharing>true</allowsharing>
        </source>

or Quoting:

        <source>
            <name>TV Shows</name>
            <path pathversion="1">"smb://192.168.1.111/Media Library/TV Shows/"</path>
            <allowsharing>true</allowsharing>
        </source>

or (best) remove spaces:

        <source>
            <name>TV Shows</name>
            <path pathversion="1">smb://192.168.1.111/Media/TV_Shows/</path>
            <allowsharing>true</allowsharing>
        </source>

No idea if that's the issue but simple enough to test.

It sounds like a communal garden "flakey connection" .. the soluions are:

a) Run an Ethernet cable

b) Use an external WiFi device with a better antenna

c) Use an Ethernet bridge (combines both)

d) Run and Ethernet cable <= always the best

RPi4 has better wireless than previous Pi devices that I've used, but it's not the best WiFi device.
