What script are you currently using? I noticed that this topic has no speed control, and the noise is rather loud.
Hi I'm using the script from GaryB available on this topic..it's neatly edited to work with libreelec...I only have a cheap fan..and it's not noisy but it was at the beginning until I connected it to the 3.3v pin instead of 5v...it works much better and still cooling nicely..It's been going since August never had the rpi off...it's only on or off no speed control tough.No power issues whatsoever and the rpi is also powering an hdd all from a 2amp supply.
Did you have a look at the links in #38 regarding speed control?
-
I suppose there is something wrong with the script, because although it works as autoexec.py I did not notice fan speed variation according to temperature increase, at the moment I will use the scripts already posted in this topic, because it works correctly for me.
Thank you friend!
Check these scripts...they make more sense to me..
-
The scripts posted here works perfectly for me...just there is no speed control which is not an issue...just on and off...just set min temp and max temp as far as you can so the fan won't turn on and off constantly...
-
I m gonna try to explain to you how my script is working and enabled...assuming you already installed RPI tools addon...try to follow this...
Make a folder in Storage/.kodi/userdata/and name it "fan" and place your cooler.py in there.Anywhere in /storage should work but I m using this location as an example and that is where I keep my scripts..
Copy this and save it as "cooler.service"
Code
Display More[Unit] Description=PWM Fan Control [Service] Type=simple ExecStart=/usr/bin/python /storage/.kodi/userdata/fan/cooler.py Restart=always RestartSec=20 [Install] WantedBy=kodi.targetThen place the "cooler.service" in Storage\.config\system.d
After you place your file in system.d go to ssh to your Rpi
Enable it with
Codesystemctl enable coolerand then start it with
Codesystemctl start coolerCheck if its working
Codesystemctl status cooler.serviceHope I helped you in some way.

Are you sure that script is for libreelec or at least for Rpi? I m not good with scripts but can't find anything that is measuring the temp in the script something like "vcgencmd measure_temp"

Display More
for some reason I can not succeed in autostart for this script:
[Unit]
Description = PWM Fan Control
After = mediacenter.service
[Service]
Type = simple
ExecStart = / usr / bin / python /storage/fan/cooler.py
Restart = always
[Install]
WantedBy = default.target
Path: /storage/.config/system.d/fanctrl.service
What is wrong?Are you trying to control fan speed too or just on and off?
-
Did you check for any errors in logs?Could be network is not ready when your command is executed..try to set a minimum of 5 seconds delay before kodi starts for network in Libreelec addon...
-
Some useful links for those starting to use Emulationstation and Retroarch..these makes your life easier when trying to scrape artwork/metadata and create playlists
-
thankyou for your help, i managed to fix it by saving to home/.kodi/media, libeelec backups fine now, even saving roms in there place.
Glad you got it sorted...I have my roms on an external hdd connected to my rpi so I find that software handy...
-
Any way of hiding a rom in ES?There is a setting in ES Ui settings "show hidden items"set to on or off but not sure what it does.

Not sure what kind of box you have...if you have your own playlists on your youtube account you can access them either from within kodi youtube addon after you log in with your youtube account or with the youtube app on your box if you r getting something android..can't help you much about how to move them to your box if I dont know what box you have but usb way would work with anything having a usb..

Forgot to add that SyncToy can backup even network storage....that's how I use it to backup my setup...you can set it to backup different locations...I even use it to backup my libreelec backups from the hdd connected to my Rpi to another Hdd connected to my PC...You can run all backups together at one go or one at a time...
-
Not sure if this might help you...To back up my roms,artwork & assets I use a small but mega usefull software on my windows PC called SyncToy..
SyncToy can do 3 different types of backups Synchronize,Echo or Contribute.
I use Echo,which is New and updated files are copied from Libreelec to Backup,Renames and deletes on Libreelec are renamed and deleted from backup..
This keeps an exact copy of your Libreelec folders..
Hope this helps..

How playlist can be uploaded?
Not sure what you mean uploaded?But if you want to upload it online to share it you can use something like pastebin..
In kodi you just put the playlist in the video playlist folder and browse to it or you can use any addon you want that plays playlists from youtube addon..
-
You can make your own youtube video addon to play your playlists from kodi..it's not that hard really..there are lots of tutorials online...a good example is youtube kids addon for kodi...if you look inside it in the resources folder you ll see how it's done
To make your own playlist that works with kodi your playlist has to look something like this
Code#EXTCPlayListM3U::M3U #EXTINF:0,Shakira - Trap (Official Video) ft. Maluma plugin://plugin.video.youtube/play/?video_id=zkG4Xpz6t68 #EXTINF:0,DeMarcus Cousins Out for Season, Pelicans Defeat Rockets in Clutch! 2017-18 Season plugin://plugin.video.youtube/play/?video_id=8MfSVTHqNHUEdit your playlist in a text editor like Notepad++ and save it as "nameofyourplaylist.m3u"
-
Never worked for me...I tried this but no success..
-
I tried that didn't work
Did you mean rom path should look like this?
Code<path>genesis_plus_gx ./Cool Spot (USA).md</path>
