milhouse I think brunis means our OOB configuration doesn't require user/pass so Win10 clients fail to connect as Win10 now requires an authenticated connection. Changing the OOB configuration is something we should consider.

I dream of 6Mbps upload!

FTP can be added via add-on, scp (based on ssh) is baked into the OS image.

scp?

Make sure you create a diff patch and store it somewhere like packages/mediacentre/LibreELEC-Settings/patches/LibreELEC-Settings-01-new.patch. If you just edit the unpacked sources in the build.LibreELEC* folder between build (re)runs the change is not applied.

Not that I'm aware of..

Part 10 refers to the H.264 standards documentation. It's doesn't mean 10-bit.

It sounds like a bad card. It's unusual as pi-hut stock decent brands, but it's not impossible. I suggest you contact them.

That's a bit like saying "my car is a ford" and expecting us to know the type of spark plugs fitted. Try again..

^ change 0 to 1 then create a patch for the LibreELEC-settings package to drop into the build-system.

MMAL is the technically better player, but you can switch from MMAL to OMXplayer in Kodi settings. You might need to enable 'Advanced' or 'Expert' mode in Kodi settings before you can see the option to change it. NB: The codec info shows H264 not MPEG2 so the license is irrelevant. You need to pastebin a Kodi debug log file if you want to anyone to look into the issue properly.

What kind of PSU is being used with the RPi?

belaid38 It's possible to run mainline kernels on the WP2 and Kodi runs, but there is no hardware decoding and no HDMI audio. Further development is required.

In most "my box froze" reports the actual issue is bad config or (more common) missing drivers) so after the boot messages Xorg doesn't run and thus nothing updates the screen with the Kodi splash or home-screen (hence the appearance of freezing). In 9/10 cases the OS is still running fine and you can SSH in to poke around. So are you sure you cannot get in?

You need to build the binaries on a 'similar' OS like Raspbian then copy them over to /storage on the LE9.0 install to see if they work for whatever you're trying to acheive. If you "try the same thing" running the script on an LE9.0 image you will get the same result; there are still no build/compile tools in the OS and it will still fail.

Kodi supports 'status' output to VFD type displays but there's no function for external controls like that.

LibreELEC is an embedded appliance-like OS with no build/compile tools. You will need to cross-compile the code from another machine and then either copy the binary over or create your own LE image that includes the binary. If you run LE 9.0 development builds instead of LE 8.0 releases you'll have the same base kernel as Raspbian which may allow the easier binary-copy option.

I has no benefit at all for our Linux distro. Please preach Android somewhere else, there are plenty of forums.
