Plug it into mac OSX and disable journaling on the volume.

that can lead to data loss on the macOS side and is not recommended, exFAT is the best option.

there's nothing that fdisk does that parted cannot do, so no need for fdisk

The issue with Windows browsing (aside from it being designed by morons) is that there is not ONE configuration that works. This is due to different versions of SMB protocol and other OS-unique variations that have evolved in the 20-years since Windows '95. So the only consistent thing you'll find when you look in forums is one group of users (with a certain era of OS) arguing that their defaults are the enlightened best approach, while another group (with another era of OS) argue for a different set. The current configuration in LE is not the best configuration (as that doesn't exist) but more of a "least worst" arrangement that results in fewer support posts. You are encouraged to figure out what works best for your scenario with a custom samba.conf.

Or lets avoid statements which become promotional about vendors in our forum. Thanks.

It's a packaging issue in the image. If you download dt-blob.bin and replace the current file in /flash it should work fine. At least, I have normal stereo output here, a cable needs to be acquired to test the optical output.

Virtual is used daily by developers and is a valid project to use as an example. I added WeTek_Play_2, WeTek_Hub and Odroid_C2 to the page.

If you update using the .tar file in Index of /slice/ (same filename but newer file) the images now have Gordon's audio fixes included and analogue should work?

If our software accidentally doesn't like pirate add-ons, that's great, and I won't be encouraging anybody on staff to investigate

If you connect the HTPC directly to the TV this does not occur?

edit4ever: if the code in your add-ons is stable you're welcome to submit them to our repo, or if you need some webspace to publish your own repo instead of using dropbox links (and then add your repo installer to our repo) to make updates easier for users; let myself or other staff know.

The thermometer is only on when software decoding on the CPU. Current testing suggests 720p H.265 media (H.264 from the BBC converted with HandBrake) is perfectly okay but 1080p is borderline and drops frames in panning scenes. I'll see what I can bits I can fettle into a heatsink over the weekend

Something is borked on the Kodi servers. If/when/once they fix that it will work normally. Until that happens you'll need to either wait patiently or do the manual thing above.

autostart.sh

You need to set a value in /storage/.cache/timezone containing the timezone. I'd do this with an embedded autostart.sh script that detects whether that file already exists, and if not (which would be first boot) creates it to set the value.

If you (we) figure out how to autodetect the MAC address this could be something we bundle in to the distro?

Like RPi3 the CM3 has no hardware decoding support for H.265 and with the stock config.txt it can *almost* handle the format in software. If you apply a little overclock in config.txt it seems to cope. I haven't found the time to convert a large 40GB-ish Blu-Ray rip for testing but for normal HD broadcast things I record from the BBC and a couple of other online places it's been fine. NB: The thermometer icon shows permanently in the top-right corner of the screen due to the CPU load but Gordon has voiced good results adding a small passive heatsink, so that's on my to-do list.

"back in the day" when people spent hours in forums debating the merits of class10 cards over class4 etc. there was some value in splitting things over a USB, but if you have content on a NAS and with a decent branded 8GB SD card costing $peanuts, the extra hassle it brings around updates isn't worth it IMHO.

This is a LibreELEC image for the FiveNinjas "Slice" box based on the standard RPi and RPi2 image(s) with patches to support the CS4265 audio DAC and WS2812 LED ring in the Slice box. Other features like lirc disable and log submission have been incorporated into the main LibreELEC image. As the original SliceOS skin was never updated for Krypton (and has font licensing issues) the image uses Estuary. To achieve a more Slice-blue look set the "midnight" colour scheme.

GitHub sources for the images are normally up to date here: GitHub - chewitt/LibreELEC.tv at slice-8.0

Instructions for updating SliceOS and clean-install images for CM(1) and CM3 cards are on the website: downloads – LibreELEC
