No log files = no problem

Most LE images have kernels that support swap but we don't 'enable' swap in /etc/swap.conf so no swapfile is created. However, the swap mounting process will use a pre-existing swap partition if present in preference to a swap file. See the process in:

LibreELEC.tv/mount-swap at master · LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv · GitHub

Lakka is reasonably similar to LE, but not entirely.

You have a self-inflicted problem, and we do not provide support to users of piracy builds/wizards/repos/add-ons.

No system log = no problem

It's all about KEYDB.cfg .. find a newer one and things might work.

After 17.5 ships.

Any suggestions?

I've an old E6400 which gets used for testing once in a while. Suspend type stuff worked once in the past but never since I updated the firmware about 4 years ago. Solution = don't use old laptops with crap firmware as HTPC devices.

Display overscan is ideally solved by setting the TV to some kind of "Just scan" setting instead of forcing 16:9. If that's not possible you can go into Kodi and calibrate the screen output for each refresh rate that you will use; i.e. if you calibrate at the default 60Hz you also need to repeat at 23.98 (23.976Hz) and 50Hz (PAL 25Hz x2) etc.

I've never tried it myself, but that should be all that's required.

We accept user contributions for things the community wants but we (team) aren't likely to develop things that aren't Kodi related. That's the current approach and it seems fair to me.

Follow instructions in the cis.mount.sample or nfs.mount.sample files in /storage/.config/system.d/

Any alternatives chewitt?

Nope.

If there is cam support from any of the home automation suites; there are docker containers for most of them and RPi images support docker.

Are you using a private DNS addressing scheme with .local addresses in your network?

LE is a fairly small project so broad distro support for building is "nice to have" not "must have" and most people use Ubuntu simply because it has a critical mass of LE builders and works, which eliminates the effort of chasing down esoteric build problems requiring deep expertise. Unfortunately the widespread use of Ubuntu means asking for help on "other distro" build issues can be challenging because few people are doing the same and can offer advice. If you do figure things out we are alway happy for people to submit changes on GitHub that improve things!

There is no Hyperion-NG add-on in our repo so there is nothing to update to the latest build. From past experience if we leap on things too early we get loads of whiny sh1ts posting and complaining about bugs, and we have better things to do with our time. Once Hyperion NG progresses beyond "pre alpha" we can revisit the topic.

You need to submit lots of code to Kodi so that it supports multi-screen configurations for control/playback. In other words; not currently possible.

Try labelling the drives to give them "names" .. the 1.42.6-5644 looks like something the kernel autocreates in the absence of a label.

Just for kicks, disable UPnP sharing in Kodi.
