Looking at Github: it seems to be a huge update, even a namechange and the need to deinstall the old plugin. I guess we should wait until the plugin is available under the LE Repo and then install after removing the old plugin. I guess configs will get lost too when moving to the "new" plugin?

Thanks! Will the updated rpi-tools come to LibreElec Updates?
-
there is currently no other solution than compiling the ffmpeg plugin yourself. You need to set up a LibreElec Dev System for that, change a config file and have some spare hours CPU time
If you want to do that i can give you the hints on which screws you need to work to brew ffmpeg 4.4.4 which is working.

no, i don't have or use a argon remote.
The case has ONE green led which lights up when powered on and flashes on sd-card access. I first thought it would annoy me but it turned out that it does not
it doesn't shine very light in a dark room, so it is ok for me.

Thanks for the infos HarryH
so, if i add a NVMe SSD to the Argon case it will be booted by default? (over the microSD being in place?)
Maybe you built in a option in your addon to check if these settings are active or even to change the boot order in the addon?
-
hello HarryH , i finally made the jump to a Raspi5 and your plugin is working fine on the Argon40 V3 case with M2-NVMe extensionboard too
speaking of NVMe: i am currently using the Raspi5 with a SD-Card. I plan to upgrade to a NVMe SSD. Do you know how what i need to add to config.txt to make it boot from the SSD? The argon scripts don't run on LibreElec i suppose?

i would REALLY appreciate this. This Plugin needs to be in official repo!

The EOF Bug of ffmpeg 6.0.1 has been reported/documented by another user now. So i am not the only one having problems.
ffmpeg 6: HLS sessions don't work (EOF) · Issue #25131 · xbmc/xbmcBug report Describe the bug ffmpeg doesn't provide a continuous stream - the playback stops after a few seconds. Expected Behavior The playback doesn't stop…github.comMaybe you can provide an official Addon with 4.4.4 static until it is fixed / update for 6.x is available?

Setting up a seperate RPi for some "legacy things" (e.g. ffmpeg 4.x) seems to be a good idea. I did it because ffmpeg 6.x on LE12 doesn't handle my IPTV streams correctly. No idea why. A separate RPi with LE11.0.6 serves IPTV via TVHeadend-Server for now.
-
Thanks for the explanation and heads-up. I'll dig myself into that Wiki Article. I haven't found it before.
-
i noticed that 12.0.0 is out on git as a new branch. I guess the changes i made in my local 11.9.5.2 previous checkout will be overwritten/updated when i do "checkout 12.0.0" ?
Is there a way to keep the changes i made or will have to edit/apply the changes afterwards again?The whole LE Development/git is completely new to me but exciting too.
-
I managed to set up a LibreElec 12 Development system using Ubuntu 22.04 and compiled the ffmpeg addon using 4.4.4 sources. I'm a bit proud
Best thing is: my IPTV Streams run flawless now with the selfcompiled ffmpeg 4.4.4 like on all other systems i tested which had ffmpeg 4.x on it (macOS, Synology, old LibreElec...)
-
i guess more reports will follow once LE12 is released and more users will upgrade. I was the first reporting IPTV problems several times with new major releases.
I'll dig myself into Raspberry LibreElec Development/Crosscompiling and try to build a ffmpeg 4.4.x package myself.
-
OK... all my tests here showed that i only get stable streams using ffmpeg 4.x.x versions. I guess i have to dig deeper and learn how to compile a ffmpeg4 package for/with LE 12 myself. This will get very hard i believe
EDIT: there are two different TVHeadend-Server Addons in the repo, why not a second "legacy" ffmpeg addon? One could choose which to use/install?
-
OK, thanks.
These "static" versions fail to establish tcp connections/resolve hostnames on LE12b2
-
i did a full restore via the LibreElec Config Tool (Kodi Menu)
-
you could build in a switch where you can choose to use the argon receiver or "other ones" ? When switched to argon the previous configs are backuped and when turning off the previous backuped ones are copied back?
