I believe they are called Panther Canyon NUCs with Tiger Lake SoC
In theory Tiger Lake should work with the current build. The cheapest Tiger Lake is Celeron 6305.
I'm not too interested in NUCs but when an ITX board with Celeron 6305 is available I will buy it.
ah yes panther canyon lol got mixed up
I dont think I will get the i5 with XE gfx as I wont need to game or do anything that needs good gpu.
currently got a old Apollo lake celeron nuc
i hear rumors that Panther lake nuc will have native HDMI ports instead if LSPCON. lets hope the gemni lake patches does not need much more work for Panther Lake!
Nekromantik be careful as that one might not have support yet where as you can find Gemini Lake NUC's for less as they are older and they work.
I didn't realize I could get an intel NUC with Gemini Lake still so I "built" one using the ODROID H2+ board which now I regret as you can just go with an intel one that looks nicer ... but alas it is what it is and it works. Testing out your latest build smp and figuring which limited addons are updated and which ones aren't yet.
EDIT: I compared video quality of this build compared to my Vero 4k+ and its not even close, the Vero 4k+ is superior. Its as if I'm watching the movie in a smokey room. A white haze, colors are not as bright and "popping". Its triggering HDR on my tv but is it really using the metadata ? Tomorrow I'll install winblows on the box and test out that build of v19.
yeah hopefully its supported soon after
i might pick up Tiger Lake NUC if not too much
my current one is NUC6 so cant do HDR even in windows
those who testing and getting blank screen are you on samsung tvs?
Correct, not using Gemini lake.
The build we just tried had patches for LPSCON controller which Gemini lake doesn’t have either so shouldn’t effect Gemini lake.
yup it looks like lspcon devices stlll dont work for HDR as patches are work in progress
Only gemni lake had native HDMI 2.0 so that is working
makes it dificult for me to upgrade as everything new still uses lspcon
I'm using SMP's build posted a little further up this thread.
Do the mainstream builds now have Gemini Lake HDR support?
No I just meant the patch to fix the audio issue was included in 9.2.2 hotfix release.
Those with no video on HDR files, you are not using Gemini Lake correct?
Display MoreThanks for this.
I hadn't expected it to work with Rec 2020 HLG HDR (so many other things just do HDR10) - but it seems to. My Rec 2020 HLG HDR stuff is output with HLG flagged and my TV switches into HLG HDR mode. This is great news for BBC UHD HDR iPlayer stuff which uses HLG.
However for some reason my TV's sound device is not detected with this build detected. I'll have a reboot of both my TV and my Gemini Lake box to check it's not an HDMI funny.
** Aah - I solved it with this LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 19.0) as I didn't want to alter my BIOS in case I go back to Windows **
echo "blacklist snd_soc_skl" > /storage/.config/modprobe.d/blacklist-snd-soc-skl.conf
Yes that sound issue was fixed in LE 9.2.2 Hotfix
So if your build is after that it should not need to use blacklist
I don't expect HDR to work on anything else yet.
majofi has it working so it does work on one gen of devices at least
anyone tried the above build?
does it only work on Gemini Lake?
Its Intels fault as they keep using LSPCON. Gemini Lake was only SoC with native HDMI2.0 in this format.
From the patches it looks like they are working on getting LSPCON working with HDR but when is the question and it may not work on all NUCs.
If only LE merged the patches that make it work on Gemini lake so that if you do have it then you can continue to use the latest builds.
i ordered a NUC8 i3 but cancelled after seeing this thread
good to see progress on LSPCON HDR but wont buy until its working as my NUC6 works fine just does not do HDR
Display MoreMore information is needed
Make and model of your AVR and TV and how they are connected
Model of your NUC
Exact versions of LIbreelec you are referring to
Supply logs (upload to appropriate site)
Yesterdays nightly fixed the issue I tried version from last week and there was still no sound.
if any newer versions break sound again I will open new thread with more info and logs.
Hey
So the Intel Generic veta builds no longer have any sound.
This has been the case for all builds in the last 2 months but the release BETA works fine.
When you go to Sound settings only device listed is PULSE audio and you cant select anything else.
This is on 6th Gen NUC.
are the nightly builds based on kodi 18.4?
Will this release be the same as todays nightly build?
ignore me i got my answer thanks all
