I'll check. Thanks.
I must be looking in the wrong place. My 12.01 legacy x86 build it shows up but not showing in Rpi5. It's a recent nightly build so maybe not included? Anyway is it possible to download the addon from github repo?
I found the zip file from earlier in this thread but says dependency not met.
Maybe I'm missing something but I can't seem to locate the ntfs-3g in the LE12.0 repo. I'm eager to test on RPi 3,4 &5.
As I understand it the issue is not with LE rather the Linux kernel that changed it's handling of read/write to devices. Actually I think MS made some NTFS code changes as I find many times my usb drives are reported to have issues when none exist. Some sort of error flag is being set for who knows why. That seems to cause HD mount issues in Linux so not really a LE issue.
Well I'd say you don't have many choices.
I can appreciate your issues as a many of us had the same problems. Backups are always the best plan to preserve valuable data but in your case if you wish the best current solution I would reformat to EXT4. As I mentioned I have two 4TB drives identical data in both. One formatted NTFS and the other EXT4. Twice in 6 months the NTFS drive has presented the same issues you mentioned and the EXT4 formatted drive has been rock solid. Both are used exclusively with LE. This issue has been around for some time and I know the Devs are looking at it but still presents itself occasionally. Your physical drive is probably not the culprit here.
I have had very good results by simply accessing the said drive in Windows and using file explorer right click on Properties then select Tools then click on "Check". So far every time I've used this method it has been successful. Worth a try. I might also mention that since I reformatted my second 4TB drive EXT4 no issues at all.
Check the Add On support section for "Chrome No sound." Just a quirky Chrome audio thing with HDMI.
Interesting. I just installed the current RPi5 build with no issues using Wifi. Are you absolutely sure of your network pass code?
You're welcome. I too have spent more time than I'm willing to admit fooling with Chrome audio. My issues seems to be related to HDMI audio and how Chrome handles it. On my spanking new Sony Tv I still must connect to a Youtube site before the sound will work. Not sure why but it does work. None of these issues show up using my PC monitor and audio system. Weird I know.
A correction is necessary here:
The correct setting for my system is "hw:0,3" not "HW:0,3"
Using caps for the hw causes the setting to be ignored with no displayed error. It's unclear to me if "plughw" would work as well but since I have it working I'll not mess with it.
I just had to keep at this and finally after a few hours of trial and error once again I was able to get the updated Chrome browser to spit out sounds. The last version did not require the Custom Audio settings to work on my Sony HDMI but now requires "HW:0,3" which is odd to me as a previous version used "HW:0,7" to function. Whatever works.
Once again joy is restored. 
Just an afterthought. Sound works fine in Chrome on a monitor just seems to get lost when using HDMI on my Sony. Got to be some simple setting somewhere?
I did a fresh LE 12.0 install and once again Chrome is silent. Somewhat curious as the settings that once worked no long work. At one time I needed to use "HW:0,7"
for the Custom Audio device but the last !!.xx Chrome worked fine with no Custom Audio Device. Anyway I tried both and no joy.

I also ran aplay -L from terminal attached.
Maybe someone with a background in audio settings can point me in the right direction. This issue has been hounding me for some time and I'd like to understand what the right settings might be.
TIA
Forgive me but exactly do it set this up. I have used ssh but fuzzy on what I need to add/change/create. Maybe a example?
Most curious here as I recall using Windows SMB on my RPi3 and same router a few years ago with no issues. Now when I tried to add a source my NAS drive does not appear when I browse for new source. I had no problem with my windows Kodi install and showed up with no problems. I'm a total klutz with Linux and learning but age is my enemy. This is my X86 Legacy 11.xx system. 
I seem have exceeded my knowledge of NAS storage using LE. What was straightforward using KODI on a windows machine requires a bit more work I assume being Linux based. I have a Netgear Nighthawk router with a usb share onboard and all I need is a simple way to access it from within LE as a network source. So far my attempts to add this drive (Q:) as a source have failed. I seem to be missing the proper format or ? I read the wiki and it seems I might need to modify a file or something using ssh? Any guidance appreciated.
While you're waiting for the expert replies you might try the x86 legacy build.
I'm considering maybe a 1TB M.2 drive for my RPi5 and looking for any thoughts for make/model ?
