    Hello,

    I wonder if it's possible to launch a rom with a script and add that script to favourites? So what I want to do in the script is call a rom on a certain location and open it with specific libretrocore. As I don't have a lot of roms I don't really need to browse my roms so I could easily write some scripts for each rom I have.

    Hello,

    I want to stream a DAB+ signal through a server, for example TVheadend. Now I know software defined DAB+ exists (SDR-RTL for example) and I already tried it. It works, but it's very processor intensive, not something to use on a arm-based device.

    So I wonder if there does exist hardware defined DAB+. I already found this device from DeNSION: DAB+U | Dension but it's a little bit expensive.

    I found also these android devices: Tweede Generatie DAB + Doos Digitale Radio Ontvanger Voor Android Systeem Auto Head Unit Dvd speler in Tweede Generatie DAB + Doos Digitale Radio Ontvanger Voor Android Systeem Auto Head Unit Dvd-speler van Kabels, Adapters & Sockets op AliExpress.com | Alibaba Groep and POPyourPHONE - dab+ til Android smarttelefon | The home of POP but how do they work and do they work on linux?

    And how do those smartphones play FM radio, it seems it's not overkill for their processor and could an old smartphone be used to stream radio through a usb connection into a linux server?

    I hope that there will be. It takes time to fix the errors that I have when building new images for S812.

    I think, that need create a new subject for models s812\805. Because this topic was discussed in the version for the S9xxx. Infa about s8xxx confuses them (it is absolutely different versions).

    Balbes, do you have any idea what the status is of mainline S812, is somebody working on hdmi?

    First Lircmap.xml maps a KEY_xxx code to a kodi button name and then you assign actions to kodi buttons in remote.xml

    This is a line I was already searching for a long time ago and eventually figured it out myself. This should be put somewhere in the LibreElec remote wiki. It would have spared me a lot of time figuring everything out.

    To be honest, as well the kodi wiki as the libreElec wiki are a little bit confusing about this matter.

    Yes, indeed. With ir-keyrable you can determine the scancode of the buttons of your remote and save it in /storage/.config/rc_keymaps/doesn'tmatterhowyoucallit as you already did before.. This is described in the libreelec wiki and on the forum thread for amlogic devices. The point is you can map how you want it just choose any available action from the lircmap.xml to a button of you remote. It's not because on the button there is a 1 you should map it to KEY_1. If you want epg on button 1 then you map it to KEY_EPG. If you don't find the specific key in lircmap.xml then you take just a available KEY_ you don't want to use for another action and then you map it in remote.xml to the action you want iti to do.

    For example my red button on my remote is mapped to opening the netflix plugin: <red>RunAddon(plugin.video.netflix)</red>

    The default actions of your remote that or connected with lircmap.xml or defined in /usr/share/kodi/system/keymaps/remote.xml

    Just read the wiki and forum post on the libreelec site and the wiki on the kodi site. Check some examples of remote.xml, rc_keymap and the lircmap.xml put them next to each other and find the links. adjust some stuff just to test and test it. Eventually, you willl figure it out.

    You should just make a remote.xml file with your custom actions in ~/.kodi/userdata/keymaps/

    for example this is mine:

    <keymap>

    <FullscreenVideo>

    <remote>

    <zero>AudioNextLanguage</zero>

    <seven>subtitledelayminus</seven>

    <nine>subtitledelayplus</nine>

    </remote>

    </FullscreenVideo>

    </keymap>

    So keypress 0 on my remote is next language, 7 is subtitledelayminus. Just follow the kodi wiki about keymaps: Keymap - Official Kodi Wiki

    If I remember correctly only the <remote> actions will work with a ir-remote.

    A while ago there where problems with ir-remotes on amlogic devices and then the guys of coreelec had set the ir-remote in keyboard mode so the remotes should work, but I don't know if you can do that through configuration or you should rebuild libreelec with this option.

    But why working with lirc? Find the protocol of your remote and use ir-keytable -t, or do it in once as described in the wiki:

    "Then, for each of the protocols (except lirc, which isn't a real protocol) run ir-keytable -p PROTOCOL -t, then press some buttons on your remote.

    If you discovered the correct protocol you should see EV_MSC events together with the scancode of the button. eg:

    Code
    LibreELEC:~ # ir-keytable -p rc-5 -t
    Protocols changed to rc-5
    Testing events. Please, press CTRL-C to abort.
    1503592437.660155: event type EV_MSC(0x04): scancode = 0x101a
    1503592437.660155: event type EV_SYN(0x00).
    1503592437.774129: event type EV_MSC(0x04): scancode = 0x101a
    1503592437.774129: event type EV_SYN(0x00).
    1503592437.921009: event type EV_MSC(0x04): scancode = 0x101a

    If you see no events stop ir-keytable with CTRL-C and try the next protocol from the list."

    And create your own remote. Maybe you there is already a configuration for your remote, check in teh amlogic subforum:

    LE9.0 remote configs ir-keytable Amlogic devices

    If you find it, don't forget to change the rc_maps.cfg and replace the meson-ir with a *

    Same problem on 8.95.2 image, but now it gives a error message: the joystick addons are required, but they are listed as not available.

    I tryed also mr boom, there retroplayer works, but gives a black screen. When I call the menu with pressing C button on keyboard, the retroplayer menu pops up and I see in the background the start screen of Mr.Boom. When the retroplayer menu goes away, the screen turns black again.

    Maybe also interesting is the crash log:

    I must say I could install older versions of the emulator cores. I tried them one after one and I think the 3th one would install with all the emulator cores.

    Second try:
