OK - can you recommend an AC chipset that is supported?

bump again? Nobody?

bump

Libreelec 8.1.2 on AMD APU system. I just picked up this wifi card:

And the libreelec configuration app doesn't see it.

It shows up under lsusb as bus 002 device 004. I also have a realtek wifi card in there which is how I am accessing it from SSH. Removing the realtek USB card and leaving the edimax in results in no choices showing up for "connections."

ifconfig with both USB wifi donges attached:

OK so I have an external drive connected to my main machine running windows 7. This drive has got all of my files on it. I just installed libreelec brand new on an AMD APU based system. I am using a USB wifi card, which libreelec detects and I can connect to my wireless network. I also have another machine running ubuntu 16.04 from which I have created a small samba share just to test things.

IP address of the windows 7 machine: 192.168.1.6

IP address of the LibreElec box: 192.168.1.8

IP address of the ubuntu server with the small SMB share: 192.168.1.14

Now, I cannot ssh directly to the LibreElec box from the windows 7 machine. I have to go to the ubuntu machine first as an intermediary. Pinging 192.168.1.6 from 192.168.1.14 works, and I can ssh to .8 from .14 but not from .6. The SMB share from .14 is visible and works fine in libreelec and I have changed the settings to allow SMB1. I am running v 8.1.2 of LibreElec.

The windows server has a user created with a simple username and password that I set up to be able to access the SMB shares. I would guess that was the problem except that it appears that no network traffic is possible between the two boxes. What gives?

right but the point is I don't want to use a scraper. I still want to be able to browse the file structure...

I have two Kodi systems - one is an AMD APU A8 running Kodi 16.1 connected to my network via ethernet, and the other is an rPi3 running LE alpha, newest build as of today. It is connected via wireless, in the next room from my router.

I have a NAS which has some directories which are huge. Thousands of directories. The A8 loads that directory in under 2 seconds. On the PI this takes sometimes almost 30 seconds. I realize this is probably due to some limitation in the PI hardware, or something to do with wifi speed vs ethernet. I don't want to use a scraper and I don't want to reorganize my NAS (ie: one folder for each letter of the alphabet).

Is there any way that we can get cached content lists rather than read-every-time on the current directory? So like if I go down into a folder from the browser, it loads the list of files once, and keeps them in memory until I go up out of a directory and back in to force reload? Is that already an option?
