No .. and the thread is now locked because I am becoming bored of repeating myself.

HD audio is a known issue with the Intel GPU drivers. There are fixes in circulation but they are only suitable for inclusion on newer kernels so we are not able to patch things in LE 8.2 without causing problems. It will be resolved in LE9.0 (which will use newer kernels). Although the lights don't show on the AVR display (which causes OCD issues for people) multichannel PCM output works fine and 99/100 users are probably unable to tell any difference in audio quality.

Requests for Kodi functional changes should be made to Kodi developers via Kodi forums. For these things LE is just a dumb consumer of upstream code, so we don't get too involved in these kind of requests.

No debug log = no problem.

AFAIK the only allwinner images in circulation are based on a collection of OpenELEC era patches ported over to the LE build system. Nothing in that image has been created with our knowledge so we have no idea what can be configured on the image with your unknown soundcard and unknown (and to us, unsupported) hardware. It's probably best to ask the unknown creator of the unknown image.

Use the backup/restore function in the LE settings add-on to capture files from a complete and working install, not the Kodi repo backup add-on. Our restore process will be faster and more complete than anything else. Clean install LE to the new drive then restore the backup.

Developers are simple creatures who have little interest in fixing bugs they already fixed. For that reason you need to go read post #3 again and test a Leia development release. If the bug still exists, report the bug.

Quote from Demetris

LE-8.2 Final release is out

Demetris .. until I tag the release on github the 8.2.0 release is NOT out, and since there are still some commits to pull in (minor stuff admittedly) you have jumped the gun. Please do not do cowboy releases that mislead users.

No. Your hardware does not respond to power on from USB. This is not a software problem.

Put a milhouse development image on a spare SD card and see if the problem still occurs in the Leia codebase. All development switched to Leia some months ago and being realistic, nothing is going to be fixed on Krypton now. If it happens on Leia then it's worth asking Kodi developers to have a look (via their forums).

No idea. You'll find to find (or build) a pre-alpha Leia image for WP2 to find out for yourself. Leia is still a long way off..

Pi hardware is happy to run quite hot, but if you want to overclock *and* be stable you need it to run at the lowest temperature possible. That just means using a case with a heatsink (like the Kodi flirc case) or a stick on heatsink.

No. Binary add-ons from an LE 7.0 repo are not compatible with 8.0 or 8.2 versions of the OS. If there are issues with the add-on they should be reported with logs that demonstrate the issue to the Kodi forum support thread for the add-on.

Images are in team testing which will take a couple of days (some are travelling) .. so probably by the weekend.

There is no official image for generic Amlogici S812 devices in our github repo so you will need to find a community developer with an image who puts their sources in github (most do) and then run "PROJECT=Whatever ARCH=arm make amlpkg"

Not possible because the flirc dongle emulates a keyboard and I'm 99.9999% sure the box cannot be woken from a cold state using a keyboard.

We need to see the system logs to see what's happening with the kernel.

Not possible - unsupported SoC inside the device.
