does anybody else have massive distortion on the gui sounds using this build?
doesn't happen on @kszaq's builds?
Matt
edit, seems to be all 2.0 audio, doesn't happen with DTS or DD?
Matt
see this comment:
1) The default audio device is set to "ALSA: Default (AML-M8AUDIO Analog), PCM" which only produces static when playing. I can change to HDMI and then audio is back to normal. So this is only a minor inconvenience at most though this same setting in v1.5 did not produce static audio.
You need to connect to your Box using SSH, use putty or another similar program, enter your box IP, username is root and password is libreelec after you login, just type "installtointernal" (no quotes) and follow the instructions.
Display MoreAlright...looks like I am going to stick with the 1.6 upgrade now.
It now boots fully into Kodi without manual workaround.
One time audio work around is no big deal.
The dark GUI issue goes away after playing a video (same as kszaq's build).
I was skeptical about the comic theme for ES, but I must say that I ended up really liking it a lot.
Great job!
The Comic theme became my favorite really fast! it just looks very good on screen.
But if for some reason you want to change it, just copy your preferred theme to /storage/.emulationstation/themes

Release Sx05RE v1.6 · shantigilbert/LibreELEC.tv · GitHub
in Kszaq's 8.02c build are the dvb drivers for the "K-series" integrated.
In your release, too?
I installed TVHeadend, but there is no DVB hardware detected.
Did you remove them?
I did not remove anything (at least not on purpose), but I can double check. Has it always had drivers for the K-Series? or just recently?
Display MoreHaving the same issue with your build that I did when I compiled myself.
When booting, it sticks at the Sx05RE logo. I did some troubleshooting and think I have narrowed down my issue to commit 67fcda1 (Readd condition to kodi.service).
I am commenting out lines in autostart.sh (per your instructions) so that Kodi starts on boot instead of emulationstation. This method worked in v1.5 but no longer works in v1.6 without executing the following:
Codetouch /var/lock/start.kodi systemctl start kodiAs a temp workaround I created a copy of kodi.service in /storage/.config/system.d/kodi.service (in effect overriding /usr/lib/system.d/system/kodi.service) with the following line commented out:
CodeConditionPathExists=/var/lock/start.kodiWith that line commented out, Kodi now starts at boot as it did in v1.5.
2 more things I noticed after resolving the above issue:
1) The default audio device is set to "ALSA: Default (AML-M8AUDIO Analog), PCM" which only produces static when playing. I can change to HDMI and then audio is back to normal. So this is only a minor inconvenience at most though this same setting in v1.5 did not produce static audio.
2) The skin/interface is noticeably darker than before but video playback appears normal.
I am using a Nexbox A95X installed to internal memory.
Well I am an idiot, it seems I forgot to re-add the service that creates the start.kodi file. I pushed a fix for that and fixed the release.
Sorry about that and thanks for helping me find these errors!
As for the audio this also happens to me on Kszaq's build, I assumed it was my box. not something that bothers me though as once you change it sticks.
Fixed the release, please let me know if it works for you guys.
I don't understand how this patch is applied, you have it in the default patches folder which only applies to the mainline kernel but s905 devices use the amlogic-3.14 kernel.
Explain
You are right, that is not the correct patch for the s905, I was at work when I dig up the URL.
This is the correct one.
LibreELEC.tv/d007-xbox.patch at Sx05RE · shantigilbert/LibreELEC.tv · GitHub
My apologies.
I include a patch in Sx05RE to make it work.
LibreELEC.tv/xbox-one-support.patch at Sx05RE · shantigilbert/LibreELEC.tv · GitHub
if you include this on another build and compile it, it should work.
edit: This is the correct patch

Serious possible to install reicast in the libreelec of kzasq?
if you manually extract the binaries and libraries yes, but AFAIK there is no automatic installer.
I was able to compile myself changing back to 512MB partition. I just removed one of the ES themes to get under 512MB without changing the compression.
There are other things I am going to also remove, some Libretro cores are really not working that good on S905 so those can be removed, and as you did, some ES-themes, since these can be added after.
You need to set up your controller first, or use an Xbox 360 controller which should be automatically detected or, you can follow this how-to from retropie.
Sorry guys I was out for the weekend and I just came back, I will change the partion size, as I mentioned on the last reply I did it for some tests, and I totally forgot about it!
I will release the update today!
niabi Indeed your SYSTEM image is too big. You might want to change compression method to gzip or xz, whichever fits 512MB.
Edit: I noticed that you changed the size some days ago. This is generally not a good idea, users cannot upgrade after size change. Using a different compression may help you keep the size below 512MB.
Yes, Thank you for reminding me, I did it to test something out (a new FrontEnd) and I forgot to change it back for the release! I will push a fix for this!
Is it possible to use your fantastic Kodi/Lakka combination release on the Odroid C2?
Since LE has official support for the C2, with some changes it should be possible, but since I don't have a C2 I have not tried 
Version 1.6 released 
Well I switched the package hash on the libamcodec and I used your debug code, this is what I got
moonlight stream -verbose
Moonlight Embedded 2.4.0 (SDL;EMBEDDED;ALSA;PULSE;CEC;AML)
Searching for server...
Connect to 192.168.1.77...
NVIDIA GeForce GPU, GFE 3.6.0.74 (gs_03_70_22061309, 7.1.370.0)
Handle error: (null)

Platform AMLogic VPUso, it detects the correct platform, still black screen. and the /proc/$moonlight_pid/maps does show libamcodec as loaded.
The libamcodec from the s805 is definitely not the same as the one on the s905, the s905 one being larger, so there is something in the build code somewhere that is changing how it works depending on what project you build, maybe not in the libamcodec package itself but on some dependency.
