With media if possible please
In LE 9 media_build is now replaced with the CrazyCat installable add-on (Add-ons-->My addons-->Services).

Rock64 looks promising. If it will get a decent support it will probably replace my RPi3.

Is it possible to create a generic build with downgraded kernel?
Thanks
Yes. I'll do a generic build at some point.

I think this is a real issue on LibreELEC, running on Ubuntu i have no issues with my Megasat SAT>IP in tvheadend. But running tvheadend on LE i get continuity errors. There is something not ok in LE....can anyone relate to this?
Try a build with a downgraded linux kernel.

I built a Kodi 18 LE9 image for RPi2/3. If anyone wants to check it out here it is. It's the same as Milhouse build #0815 but with linux kernel downgraded to "dvb-friendly" 4.8.16.

Who said that "it was working before"? It never worked properly for me. I got sick and tired of random Kodi crashes that were caused by HTSP. I gave up on TVH almost a year ago and never looked back.

More info about the issue is here.

Add this to /storage/.kodi/userdata/advancedsettings.xml
Quote<advancedsettings>
<omx>
<omxdecodestartwithvalidframe>0</omxdecodestartwithvalidframe>
</omx>
</advancedsettings>
and restart kodi. That file will play fine.

I had similar crashes when I used TVH/HTSP on Pi3. Fixed by switching to VDR/VNSI.

Watching BBC2 HD the green artifacts are back (intermittently as they were before).
I think that pretty much confirms that it is not a LibreELEC/linux.conf issue.

"We" think the problem is some setting at linux.conf that behaves >=4.9 differently to =<4.8 .
I did a test build using kernel 4.9.29 with an older linux.arm.conf (for kernel 4.8.11). I also removed CONFIG_HZ_300=y and CONFIG_CPU_IDLE=y. This didn't make any difference, I still see an occasional video corruption.

but still occasional continuity errors when playing live - 8 errors in about 15 minutes
Run "vcgencmd arbiter set arm_uc 12 0" from ssh and see if it helps (you can add it to autostart.sh to make the setting permanent).
Also overclock the sdram to at least 550 mhz
Codesdram_schmoo=0x02000020 sdram_freq=550 -

no problem at all, DVB-S with DVB-Sky960CI running smoothly, no artefacts visible!
Try a 1080i channel, with deinterlacing method set to "MMAL - advanced".
The problem with with kernel 4.9+ and RPi3+DVB dongle is that you can't use advanced deinterlacing on 1080i channels due to frequent artefacts.
With kernel 4.8 (and older) there is no such issue.

I'm pretty sure that the issue is RPi-specific. For whatever reason it simply perform worse with kernels newer than 4.8.
I did some testing on Celeron J1800 board and I don't see any issues with Generic builds with any kernel.

I can confirm that VDR 2.3.3 does not start when epgfixer is enabled. Live-plugin works fine (RPi3).
