In what previous release were they working?

NB: Kodi does not show the 'disc' menu unless there is a readable disc inserted, and if you are inserting encrypted BR media you will need to add a KEYDB.cfg file to /storage/.cache/aacs/ else the media remains encrypted and unreadable. It is not possible to legally play your legally owned BR media under Linux as there are no legally licensed player apps (they only exist on Windows/macOS). We cannot provide the KEYDB file and we will stop short of providing URLs to them to avoid violating laws, so you will need to Google and source the file and violate them yourself

Do you have that code in GitHub anywhere?
-
Kodi versions are not cumulative, i.e. stuff gets removed as well as added, so Krypton != Jarvis.
-
LE 8.2 will go into private team testing in the next week or so with the aim of a public beta towards end of July (after some team people are back from vacations) and all being well, release in August.

Kodi "builds" and "wizards" exists to bulk-install pirate streaming add-ons. We follow the same general principles as the Kodi forum and refuse all support regardless of issue to any user with pirate streaming add-ons installed. You now need to show us a Kodi debug log to prove your system is free of pirate add-on crapware before support will continue. Thanks.

Kodi has a general bug where it returns to the first item in the list after completing a video library item. The bug is in Krypton which is why an older OE release with Jarvis/Helix etc. didn't have the problem.
-
The connection manager (connman) service manages the functionality of the hotspot and aside from the options I mentioned above all behaviour is internal and hard-coded. There is no config file hidden somewhere that you can tweak.
-
As a broad rule NUC's are plentiful in number so issues are seen early in testing so we're not aware of any major issues. Current OE and LE releases should be using the same kernel series and driver/firmwares so will be broadly the same. Older OE and current LE will have larger differences. I'd start by making sure all have the latest BIOS/firmware available as that's what the newer drivers etc. are developed against. Then if that didn't cure anything run "dmesg | paste" and share URLs so we can see boot processes and look for error messages.
-
I'd guess the SATA controller hardware isn't supported, which is either simple or horribly complicated to resolve (in software) depending on what chipsets are involved. Run "dmesg | paste" and "lscpi | paste" from the console and share the URL(s) please.
-
Then cross fingers and hope there are no undiscovered vulnerabilities in the TVH webserver that has been exposed to the Internet. I'd advocate using a private VPN to securely access the home network, then navigate (as normal) to the TVH device.
-
Please run "lsusb | paste" and "dmesg | paste" and share the URL's generated so we can see what chipset is in the DAC or how it identifies with the kernel during boot. Then we can see what's required to support it.

It will not give you complete instructions on how to configure dual-audio, but with some fiddling about you can probably do dual-streaming. It will just require some different pulse modules to be loaded first.
It is not possible to edit content in /etc because the filesystem is read-only.
-
Not possible. ON/OFF, SSID and password are the only config options. It is functionally the same as the hotspot on your phone.
The only thing you could try is connecting the other way.. i.e. tether LE device to phone hotspot. As long as the remote app and box are in the same IP subnet they should be able to talk.

Looks about right. You cannot harm/bork anything from experimenting

Random thought: Are the back-ups you're restoring from an "XBMC" install, or from a "KODI" install? .. because files backed-up from /storage/.xbmc will be restored to /storage/.xbmc and these days Kodi expects to find everything /storage/.kodi which would result in no new (old) files needing to be migrated and you'll see the box just start-up into Kodi, which is what you originally described.
-
I can see some old cruft from OpenELEC is present in the config. Perhaps create a backup, update to 8.0.2 then reset the config and do a clean start on the box. Manually restore some essentials. Spring cleaning often works.
-
Install the RPi Tools add-on and you have RPi.GPIO and gpiozero to play with. Google them for more details.
-
It's not the normal behaviour. Most odd things that happen after upgrades tend to be add-on related. Things that keep track of what you watch etc. would be my guess. Post a Kodi debug log from clean boot where you play something to demonstrate the problem. Use the built-in paste function in LE settings and share the URL or use pastebin.
