It's not required for YouTube.

You can also uUse our USB/SD creator app (or Win32 disk imager, rufus, etc.) and restore bootsector.img to the USB. If the USB is not defected/damaged it should show in Windows as unformatted; and you can re-format.

Debug Kodi log from the RPI3 please.

The pi tools add-on has several options for python-based GPIO control that something could be built around. If you're only interested in the end-result and not the learning process a Pi case with good passive cooling (and no noisy fans) would be an easier option. The Kodi 'flirc' case is metal with a conductive heat-sink for the main processor as part of the design.

I'll add their name to the list of rip-off merchants who sell an incompetently built version of our great £0 software for profit. As there are no sources for their images visibly published anywhere they can also join the list of GPLv2 violators too. We officially disown anything they provide.

Or try restoring bootsector.img to the card first, then eject and reconnect.

That's just "how it is" in Kodi Krypton. Kodi Leia contains some improvements so depending on what hardware you're using you could always try a milhouse nightly release.

The tethered hotspot function is a tethered hotspot function not a WIFI router function. It is not designed to (and cannot) be changed. You'd need to self-build an LE image after patching a different default IP range into connman source code. It would appear the routing function is also on the basic side if /etc/hosts isn't being checked. In summary: It's working as designed (and it's a über simple design) so if you need/want a proper router you'll need to go buy a proper router, or use a more conventional Linux distro where greater configuration options are possible.

The update function in LE settings checks official servers for official LE images. We have never released an image for generic Android boxes so you must be running something community created; hence nothing is listed when you check for updates. Some of the community image creators also take liberties with version numbers and content, which explains why 8.0.2 on your box does not have Kodi 17.3 like our official 8.0.2 release.

I've moved the thread to the Amlogic section of the forum where the offending community creators hang out

You can make LED patterns in gimp. It's not a web-app but it does the job.

It sounds like a routing issue; either the router is not routing between Ethernet and WAN interfaces when in wireless bridge mode or the DHCP server isn't providing a gateway so you can only ping things within the local subnet. If LE works when the router configuration is rather points the finger at the router being the issue is (which isn't our domain of expertise) not LE.

My personal preference has always been to aim for the least number of boxes vs. trying to eek out value in old purchases. I'd get the new expensive single-box VDSL+ router and eBay the old one to partially offset the cost.

I can see some historic cruft from OE days is installed so I'd clean install LE to a spare SD card with the minimal configuration for MySQL and see what happens. No guarantees that's the answer, but a spring clean often helps.

That's all, but a possible typo: use alsa-base.conf not alsa-base

There are quite a few other model=blah options available for Mac mini/laptop devices that you can try but those are the most common. I've never found a single comprehensive list of them though.

On macOS it's a simple open/close on the bottom-right of the window.

Answer to the original question is "no" ..

When we dropped support from OE (about 3.5 years ago) there were approx. 1,500 total i386 users in 400k+ active installations. The decision to drop was about saving time/effort during x86 development and was never about whether 32-bit things could be built. There are numerous other platforms that remain 32-bit which ensures a level of compatibility if you patch support back in.

GitHub - maideii/LibreELEC.tv-Intel-i386: Just enough OS for KODI might be worth a look if you self-build.

I wouldn't make it more complicated than exposing a list of supported actions and allowing users to set an alternative /path/to/pattern.png
