we rebranded *everything* so it's root/libreelec not root/openelec

**chewitt** · Differences between OE and LE? **chewitt** March 23, 2016 at 12:56 PM

It was "a build made by Milhouse" (and LE, so v16) but not "a Milhouse build" (which would be v17) so we can see the confusion. Some official builds will be along shortly ..not built by Milhouse, and he plans to resume his Milhouse builds (via Kodi forums as usual). Are we all clear (as mud) now?

How to update LE if there are newer or dev updates

Once official alpha/beta builds start they will be versioned and the auto-update system can be used to flag new builds. If you're using Leopold's updater add-on the temp fix is to scrape Index of /builds/stable/ where he's posting things. Official builds should be along soon-ish

Number schemes were discussed among the team and while tracking Kodi versions is good (as it highlights whats inside) it also makes us beholden to the Kodi versioning system and could equally cause confusion. We also need to consider people cross-grading from OE and trying to figure out what we are vs. OE. The compromise reached is the format "LibreELEC 7.0 (Jarvis)" ..which respects heritage (we're mature, not v1.0) allows cross-compairson to OE, avoids having two distinct sets of numbers in the name, but still highlights what's inside. So on anything official like release announcements and file download lists - that's the format you should see.

**chewitt** · how to compile for wetek ? **chewitt** March 22, 2016 at 6:41 PM

Code

sudo apt-get install libxml-parser-perl

that should get things going. Hi-Silicon stuff is not supported (and not even remotely on anyone's radar).

WeTek (who are good folks) have not negatively influenced the OE release schedule. They're as much in the dark as everyone else

**chewitt** · how to compile for wetek ? **chewitt** March 22, 2016 at 4:07 PM

Code

git clone https://github.com/LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv LibreELEC.tv
cd LibreELEC.tv
PROJECT=WeTek_Play ARCH=arm make image

something like that will do it

Couln't milhouse provide a 8 version branch as per oe ?

milhouse builds with Krypton code will resume shortly.. only under the LE name. Keep following his release thread(s) in Kodi forums.

We'd like to try a mobile theme and theme auto-switcher first (before paying the Tapatalk tax). If that doesn't work out we'll add it.

**chewitt** · LibreELEC 7.0 (Jarvis) release **chewitt** March 15, 2016 at 10:47 AM

I'm currently working through the list of recent changes to get a Jarvis build up and working under the new LibreELEC branding. This post will be edited once there is something to show
