    either works one is just project specific

    Ah fantastic, hopefully i'll wake up to a functional build then :)

    Edit : So the build finished in about 6.5 hours and it looks like it worked! Thank you!

    Just one last question.. If i'm running "git checkout 7.90.008" is that actually doing what i think? as once it's built, you lose the build number and it becomes like "dev-2016xxxxxx"


    No worries. You made me curious, though.
    I will try to apply the patch when I get home ;)

    I'd really appreciate it if you found the time.. If i'm doing something blatently stupid i'd really like to know!

    Oooh.. i'm compiling right now and i saw something wiz past that said "Apply Patch" and then a path name.. i was too slwo to see it , but if it is applying patches during compilation then that would be cool!

    the further i let this build go, and the more i look at this patch file, i'm pretty sure where i've put it isn't going to work..

    it seems to include patches for multiple different things and as such i don't think putting it in "kodi" or "libcec" exclusively will work.. But to be honest, i'm just guessing at all of this at the moment.

    Finding it increasingly frustrating that no one can tell me how to do this even though people blatently do it every day.

    I've asked everywhere about this and i'm not getting any responses.. i'm hoping someone can either point me in the right direction or tell me i'm stupid.

    I've managed to compile 7.90.008 myself.. a feat in itself to be honest.. But i'm really struggling to apply some patches.

    Popcornmix has some CEC patches which completely resolve my Panasonic TV issues. Pogo1975 on the Odroid forums has compiled 7.90.008 with these patches and all is fantastic..

    The problem is, i can't rely on him to do this each time there is a new release so i'm trying to learn how to do it myself.

    The second problem is that i've no clue what i'm doing with github etc and I cannot get the patches applied...

    I'm following this guide :

    Compile - LibreELEC

    and i'm trying to patch using "git apply kodi-001-backpot.patch" but it keeps telling me it can't find the file / folder. I know i'm running this from the wrong place, but i've no clue where in the folder structure i should be running it and at what point in the instructions i should be doing it...

    I've attached the patch file to this thread.. If someone, anyone could just give me some guidance on this, i can hopefully stop litering all the related forums with my whinges :(

    I've found a folder called patches in projects/Odroid_c2/patches

    i've created a folder called "kodi" in there and put my patch file in and have started to compile... will see if it does anything.

    I know everyone keeps saying that it's the IR sensor, but it's not.

    I have done everything that's been said here, and i am still getting double clicks.

    The solution to my problem is to be able to edit the settings i have said.

    I know this because i have exactly the same problem on the Pi, and this fixes it.. there is no IR sensor on the Pi.

    I need to adjust the CEC settings for

    Double_tap_timeout_ms
    button_repeat_rate_ms
    button_release_delay_ms

    But the settings are missing from the Gui. Even in Expert mode.

    I've gone to system > input > Peripherals > CEC and there are options there, but these are not.

    On the Rpi the options are there and working.

    How can i get these setting sback?

    Is it an option to adjust the /usr/share/kodi/system/peripherals.xml and add those options in?

    if it is.. how do i make that area of the OS writeable so i can do that?

    many thanks

    I'm running 7.01 on an Rpi2 and everything is great.. except there appear to be no PVR addons.

    I can't enable PVR as it says no addons are found.. In the Addons section, there is no PVR section.. no disabled addons section.. no nothing..

    I'm thoroughly confused :(

    Would it be possible to add either an option to add your own boot splash screen, or to swap between a selection of your own?

    In a home theatre set up, the boot presentation can be just as mood setting as the skin used...

    Just a suggestion.

    thanks!

    I thought i had come back and replied to this, sorry!

    It turns out it was my laptop.. for some reason it wont connect to the SMB shares, however from other PC's it works fine.. it's just my laptop being a goof.

    So far, i'm really liking the new distro, got a couple of feature requests i'll add to the forum but i doubt anything will come of them as they are mainly cosmetic.. but important in a home theatre environment.
