I'm also interested in getting the Hifi Shield Plus working. The link @Irusak provided doesn't work anymore. Is there perhaps some work ongoing to support this shield?
EDIT: Sorry, I think this was my fault and the device already works. At least the headphones. I will check the toslink output later...

So the good news is that audio over optical out (toslink) works out of the box. The bad news is that I now have both, the toslink audio and the hdmi audio. There seems to be no setting to disable hdmi audio. Or am I doing something wrong?

Sometimes - I'm not sure if it is after a fresh boot or also when I come back to my TV after some time - Kodi is muted (red icon in to top right corner). I don't know how I can switch the volume on again with my TV remote control (Samsung TV). I have to use the Kodi app, then start playing some music file and then there is an icon to unmute.

So I would like to know what puts Kodi in that muted condition and if there's a way to prevent that. And can I somehow unmute it via the tv remote?

The internal WiFi from the RPi3 isn´t the best. It´s recommended to get some dedicated USB WiFi dongle.

If you faced the issues after you have plugged in the DVB-S2 dongle, try to remove that to see if that affects the WiFi connectivity.

Could it be that I have to set the country code (or region or how it is called) in order to enable wifi channels 12 and 13? See here. But I don't know how I can check or set this in LibreELEC...

Hello all,

I recently switched from OSMC to LibreELEC and installed v7.95.2. Additionally, just to mention it, I attached a USB DVB-S2 device and configured tvheadend. Everything was fine. A few days ago, I could configure tvheadend completely via the web frontend. But yesterday, the RPi was suddenly not reachable anymore. It was disconnected from the wifi network and didn't reconnect again. A reboot brought up wifi again but only for some minutes. Then again it was disconnected.

I really don't know what has happened here. Wifi was, at least with OSMC, very reliable and until yesterday with LibreELEC, too. I did some experiments with recording/playing from DVB-S2 because I never did this with Kodi before. I experienced sometimes high CPU temperatures (between 70 and 80 °C). Also I noticed, that the two USB memory sticks (for music/video and for tv recordings/timeshift) are something between warm and hot (but this might have been always the case). But I don't think that these temperatures can cause the wifi problems?

So, are there any known problems with the builtin wifi chip? What might be the problem here?
When I'm back at home, I could look for log files to upload (which one?). But perhaps this is a known issue?

Thanks a lot
Martin
