jirit · Lost skin settings on odroidC2 jirit July 21, 2019 at 8:26 PM

It’s a kodi bug. I found this workaround: Skins not loading in profiles · Issue #14732 · xbmc/xbmc · GitHub

jirit · Lost skin settings on odroidC2 jirit July 15, 2019 at 11:38 AM

Hi,

I have installed last stable version 9.0.2 on odroid C2, skin estuary.

I use profiles for children, parents and master user. There is a problem with skin

customization. After reboot changes, like menu items, colors, …, are lost.

When profile is loged off only, it works correctly.

Every profile has settings.xml in addon_data folder. I checked timestamps after

boot, it does not change, but profiles starts with settings from master user and ignore

changes in settings.xml. Finaly when profile log off, it rewrite settings.xml.

So, i tried set chattr -i on settings.xml, after boot profile still starts with settings for master user,

and after log off and log in again it use customized profile settings.xml.

It seems after boot kodi every time use settings for master user and replace

custom settings when profile is log off.

This problem is not on others boards like raspberryPI, orangePI, only on odroidC2.

Any idea how to fix it? Thanks

Hi,

I have installed last stable version 9.0.2 on odroid C2, skin estuary.

I use profiles for children, parents and master user. There is a problem with skin

customization. After reboot all changes, like menu items, colors, …, are lost.

When profile is loged off only, it works correctly.

Every profile has settings.xml in addon_data folder. I checked timestamps after

boot, it does not change, but profile starts with default settings and ignore

changes in settings.xml. Finaly when profile log off, it rewrite settings.xml.

So, i tried set chattr -i on settings.xml, after boot profile starts with default settings,

and after log off and log in again it use customized settings.xml.

It seems after boot kodi every time use default settings for new profile and replace

custom settings when profile is log off.

jirit · Profiles on nfs jirit November 16, 2017 at 11:35 AM

Hi,

finally i realize there is problem wit SQLlite and NFS:

Quote

SQLite uses POSIX advisory locks to implement locking on Unix. On Windows it uses the LockFile(), LockFileEx(), and UnlockFile() system calls. SQLite assumes that these system calls all work as advertised. If that is not the case, then database corruption can result. One should note that POSIX advisory locking is known to be buggy or even unimplemented on many NFS implementations (including recent versions of Mac OS X) and that there are reports of locking problems for network filesystems under Windows. Your best defense is to not use SQLite for files on a network filesystem.

So, I will try to set up databases in MySQL.

Hi all,

i try set up two raspberry pi with shared profile.

I have defined nfs mount in ./config/system.d/ it is mounted

in .kodi/userdata/profiles/

This work fine, but if i try set new profile it creates

directory structure on nfs mountpoint, but after

switch to new profile it freeze.

There is no weird lines in kodi.log.

NFS is mounted, directories are accessible, readable

and writeable.

This is my exports setting on linux server:

Code

/media/home/kodi           192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0(rw,all_squash,insecure)

This is my mountpint settings on libreelec:

Code

[Unit]
Description=nfs mount script

Requires=network-online.service

After=network-online.service

Before=kodi.service


[Mount]
What=192.168.1.101:/media/home/kodi

Where=/storage/.kodi/userdata/profiles

Options=

Type=nfs


[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

So please do you have an idea what I am doing wrong?

Thanks for any ideas.

jirit · Mpeg2 problem jirit February 12, 2017 at 9:51 AM

I forgot to put licence key into config.txt,
so it was the problem.

but maybe there can be problem with software
encoding mpeg2.
