**chewitt** · Smb Client : Random Errors **chewitt** July 16, 2016 at 1:17 PM

CIFS/SMB client connections should adapt to the server config automatically, there is no config file. You can enable verbose logging for the SMB library within Kodi settings > System > Logging > Enable component specific logging.

**chewitt** · disable addon scraper library **chewitt** July 16, 2016 at 1:04 PM

Kodi is intended to be an internet connected application. Some of the default extensions are embedded and thus cannot be disabled or removed unless you custom-build the OS (we have instructions for building, but not for removing default things). If you avoid scraping content to the libraries the only online checks will be for weather, time, and updates to Kodi default and user-installed add-ons. In default config and if scraping is avoided the online activities do not reveal anything personal.

No idea, I've never used Emby.

You can edit WinSCP preferences to show hidden files and directories.

There are no .zip files as we don't support/need those formats. Do you have an MD5/SHA256 checksum validation tool? .. it's a more reliable way to see if something changed in a file than the file-size (bytes) count. In the past when I've seen this and there's no logical explanation, having a neighbour who uses a different ISP has usually resolved the problem. It's odd.. but, meh, computers

Recent versions of OE pre-install all Kodi language translations, but this increases the size of the distro image and we had many users complain that every time they boot/reboot they see a long stream of messages about language add-ons they never use being updated. As more people complained about the udpate messages than complained about needing to install a language pack, LE reverted to the Kodi default behaviour.

In the past I have seen issues with ISP's using traffic compression technologies that result in modification (corruption) of files. It's rare, but maybe there is something similar happening. Each day the number of active RPi2 v7.0.2 installations goes up so we are confident there is no issue with the original images hosted on our servers.

LibreELEC-RPi2.arm-7.0.2.img.gz?mirrorlist shows the list of mirrors available. The mirror system geolocates your IP address so will probably direct your download requests to servers in Greece, Germany or Czech republic (closest by distance). Using the links on that page you can choose to download from our original server or another mirror in the UK, France, USA.

**chewitt** · Wetek Play - tether/AP? **chewitt** July 13, 2016 at 5:42 PM

No change. Both OS use the same driver which doesn't support being put into AP mode via dbus > connman > wpa_supplicant interface; which is how the GUI works. It's something that needs enhancement in the driver.

Hi
I have wetek play it works chromium?

No, the WP does not use Xorg for display.

**chewitt** · NEW htpc **chewitt** July 12, 2016 at 11:09 AM

The WeTek Hub also has 10-bit support. It uses the same Amlogic SOC as the C2, but a newer revision that avoids a 4k/60Hz HVEC hardware bug.

**chewitt** · 4K HEVC 10-Bit playback **chewitt** July 12, 2016 at 11:05 AM

Skylake supports 8-bit HVEC hardware decode but not 10-bit so you are software decoding and the CPU is struggling. The next generation of Intel kit (Kabylake) is scheduled to support 10-bit.

**chewitt** · VPN Setup **chewitt** July 12, 2016 at 10:53 AM

OpenVPN or PPTP?

**chewitt** · VPN Setup **chewitt** July 12, 2016 at 10:02 AM

There is nothing that you technically need to install to have a VPN connection, but how YOU need to do things depends on your personal skill level and how you want the VPN connection to work?

**chewitt** · Use custom boot image **chewitt** July 12, 2016 at 8:43 AM

I doubt there are more than 50 people who modify their splash. It's a niche capability. We have no plans to support niche things in LE settings.

**chewitt**

add "textmode" to kernel boot params and reboot

**chewitt** · LibreELEC 7.0 (Jarvis) release **chewitt** July 11, 2016 at 11:47 PM

They're both similar (over time we've both absorbed each others technical tweaks) so the primary difference is in the underlying distro packaging. There are some who swear OE is better than OSMC, and others that swear the opposite. Try them both; see which works best for you.

**chewitt** · Use custom boot image **chewitt** July 11, 2016 at 10:15 AM

so which one are you trying to change?

**chewitt** · How to switch to HDMI output? **chewitt** July 10, 2016 at 10:23 AM

Code

03:22:22 T:140102670534720 WARNING: CXRandR::Query - output HDMI-1-0 has no current mode, assuming disconnected

I'm not sure what the solution is, but that's why you only see one device in Kodi settings.
