  • usb 3.0 alimentation

    Boremc:

    First...please stop opening multiple threads for the same reason/question. This is just confusing.

    The "LAMP Addon" has nothing to do with your question. That's just his signature. Nothing else.

    I'll close this one for now, as solutions are provided here already: LibreELEC

    And you got your answers in here, too. See the answer from the user "troggy".

  • serial PROBLEM!!

    You can't beside the way you add it on your own by cloning from github and add what you need and then compile yourself. Which will last some hours (depending on your hardware you use for compiling).

    I thought you already got it working by providing that:

    fiRU

    There it's already mentioned:/dev/sdb1: LABEL="My Passport" UUID="EA6854D268549F5F" TYPE="ntfs" PARTUUID="000521ab-01"

    That is your USB HDD. So I don't see a problem anymore.

  • RPi2 usb hdd not working.

    On a normal HTPC you get only what those USBs have. I don´t know any way how it might be possible to change the ampere at a normal PC. The RPi is different in that case as it´s a 'tool' for developers in the first glance. Thankfullly it´s very good to run LibreELEC (for example) on it. But regarding to that (that it´s for developers normally) it needs to be very flexible.

    Maybe there is some way to change the ampere for USBs for a normal PC, but 1. I don´t know it and 2. I doubt it ;)

  • USB HDD no shutdown

    If those USB HDDs don't have their own power supply and they are powered over USB, I would either take a look at the bios to see, if there are some options for USB (probably something like "Wake On USB" which needs to 'listen' to the USB port and for this it needs power) or would take a look what the shutdown option is set to. Probably it is set to some sleep-state where USB still has power.

    If those USB HDDs have their own power supply, I would say it's normal behaviour.

  • serial PROBLEM!!

    - Plug in the HDD
    - SSH in
    - after the following command you will get an URL back which you should post here:

    Code
    dmesg | pastebinit

    probably a

    Code
    mount | pastebinit

    will help, too.

  • Where is config.txt

    Quote from jglazer63


    I actually saw that page but it didn't describe things well enough. I believe you should explain (as popcornmix does) that the file "resides in /flash but is read-only" and then proceed with directions on how to mount it r/w, edit it, then remount as read only.

    If you use "The config.txt file is located in /flash" somewhere in the wiki, then people will find the page when they look for "location of config.txt file" or something along those line.

    Just an idea thanks for the hard work!!

    Well....we have a main wiki page: LibreELEC

    At this page, you will see a "RaspberryPi Section" which links to: Raspberry Pi - LibreELEC

    At this section, there is table of content on the top right where "config.txt" is mentioned....

    So, tbh, I don't know how much clearer it could be

    From our wiki for the "why":

    As LibreELEC is generally a read-only system and you don't have write permissions to the system partition, you need to get those permissions first

    and then:

    Now you have to change the permissions again:

    So I guess it's explained very well . If one has something to improve, feel free

  • Choose language and keyboard layout on first boot

    I guess it's not that easy. For german users it is. But take a look at the keyboard layouts yourself and which are available....

    There is "English QWERTY" and "Englisch AZERTY". Which one would you think should be used automaticallly if the choosen language is English? And what about a user who want to have it different? What about users from a country where no specific keyboard layout exists...India or Italy for example?

    So I guess this won't happen. I'm just thinking of a french user who will live in a different country. So that user might need the french language, the french keyboard layout, but a different timezone....so it gets more and more complicated to fit any user case. For now it's the same for everyone. Everybody has to change the settings. There are some automated ways if you use CEC. As for that Kodi gets its informations to which the TV is set to and select the specific language directly.

    BUT...

    I agree that the menu shouldn't jump back to the first entry of that settings menu after the language change, so that users could notice there might be other settings to change. For this, as it's the standard skin for Kodi itself (and I would say it's a skin thing), I guess you should report at:

    Kodi Community Forum - Estuary

    The other thing you mentioned (set the movie scraping) won't happen, I guess...there are still movies on the database Kodi scrapes from which aren't avaible in any given language. So nearly for the same case like explained above (for users from India for example), they have to set the scraper to EN instead of their mother language. Because if the scraper might be set otherwise, it might not find ANY movie, because it simply doesn't exist in the database for that given language.

  • Blue Screen when AV-Receiver is powered on after LE (HDMI not ready yet at boot)

    If you are able to boot up OE as the last device in the chain, then that might be pure luck and probably gone with the next version. Nearly the same wiki exists for openelec, because users already have had problems with it:
    Configuring a Custom xorg.conf - OpenELEC

    So either be sure the HTPC is the last device in the chain which is powered on, or dump the EDID if you want it different. I agree, it would be very comfortable to turn on the device like any other HDMI device....but it is as it is ;)

    If you have zero video output even if you turned on your NUC as last device, then there might be a dfferent reason. As many many others users using a NUC with LibreELEC as well and have zero problems. So please confirm you have a GUI if you turn on the NUC as last device in the chain.

  • intel NUC DCCP847DYE video freezes

    It might depend from which OE version you upgraded to LE. If from their latest stable (6.0.3) or from the beta (6.95.3) it should be fine. If you want it completely clean, just ssh and remove your .kodi folder and reboot. That's like a factory reset.

    If the OE version was older, then a clean install might be better.

    But before you might think of new hardware we should try to solve your issue, or not ;).

    So please enable debug logging in system settings, reboot your machine, try to reproduce your issue as fast as you can and then get us a Logfile:

    HOW TO:Provide Logfile - LibreELEC

    That would tell most why you're facing freezes.
