  • [RPi] Sidplay decoder simply refuses to work

    SID audio decoder was started in thread 26 but kodi is crashing in some python code in thread 1

    But even debug logging does not show which python code was called.

    I'm unsure what to recommend. Maybe testing a fresh install on a spare SD card.

  • Jellyfin for Kodi sync problem

    10 sec is the default compromise to not delay the boot to log without having network. I'm interested how log it takes on your side. Please provide a log even it is working using pastekodior the LE Settings Addon - a debug log is not required.

    For the Jellyfin issue better ask in the addon thread of Kodi of Jellyfin forum.

  • [RPi5] 12.0.2 - vnsi - aspect ratio

    What if you play local media e.g. from an USB stick?

    Please provide a full debug log.

    How to post a log (wiki)

    1. Enable debugging in Settings>System Settings>Logging
    2. Restart Kodi
    3. Replicate the problem
    4. Generate a log URL (do not post/upload logs to the forum)

    use "Settings > LibreELEC > System > Paste system logs" or run "pastekodi" over SSH, then post the URL link

  • WireGuard prevents Kodi to start if wifi changes

    time-sync.target is an overkill.

    When removed there is still the dependency chain network-online.target -> kodi-waitonnetwork.service.

    kodi-waitonnetwork.service is implemented as wait for time-sync with timeout. Using this with a larger timeout configured (default is 10sec) e.g. 60sec will very likely connect to wireguard if there is a network but also start kodi after the timeout without.

  • [x86-64] Random Crashing

    Reinstallation does not change the state of the disks but start with an empty database.

    You can do disk setup and maintenance from LE using SSH. Enable SSH in LE settings and use a SSH client to connect.

    To e.g. check your sda file system stop Kodi to avoid any disk access, unmount the fs and perform the fsck:

    Code
    systemctl stop kodi

udevil umount /dev/sda
fsck -f /dev/sda

    After successful check use udevil umount /dev/sda to get access again.

    When done with /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc1 too start kodi with  systemctl restart kodi again.

    To get healt_h information about the disk install System Tools Addon from LE Repo and use e.g. smartctl -a /dev/sda|paste and post the URL.

  • [x86-64] Random Crashing

    There are two major issues in the log.

    1. Kodi is crashing when closing the video database. May be a broken sqlite DB file.

Apr 18 01:49:06.679060 KodiServer kernel: EXT4-fs (sdb): warning: mounting fs with errors, running e2fsck is recommended

    2. The file systems on your HDs (except the NVME) are broken.

    I do recommend a system backup (via LE settings) to an external media first, then fixing the errors before trying any larger updates.

  • Pi netboot - 12.0.2 mounts NFS /storage as read-only

    Good catch. Seem to be the issue (including NFSv4 not affected). Are you able to build an image with the patches?

    With your remount finding and the mount-storage.sh feature here you can try to create this file in your boot= mount point to work around the issue:

    Bash: mount-storage.sh
    # Warning: if using "overlay" the target directory is not created

# Use default command to mount storage
mount_part "$disk" "/storage" "rw,noatime"
# force rw to work around kernel issue, see https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/T/
mount -o remount,rw /storage
