Not necessarily. What are the specs of your living room pc and the NUC? Could be due to different performance specs as well.

so long,

Cheers!

Specs are below in my signature (both KL i3-7100 with SSD). So i don't think this is hw-related.

I have a little problem with one movie when playing from BD-Disc. After I select the correct title in the simplified kodi menu, it takes over 2 1/2 minutes to start the movie. In the debug log I can see that there are about 20 lines that repeat themselves the 2 1/2 minutes. After that time the movie is starting. The movie is called "Coco". I'm on build #0421.

So my native Kodi install crashed on my NUC, so I had to reinstall.
(17 --> upgrade to latest 18-build)

Now I cannot get the smoothness wich I had before.
Had System set to 60hz and all playback was good.

Now most is choppy, 23.974 or what it is, 25hz and so on.
Sure, I can set refreshrate manually, but boring to do whenever I change the source. (Netflix, local files, streaming local channels)
That has always worked before and I have never changed any settings before.

I've seen that there should be some kind of automatic refreshrate.
It is not shown in the settings, and it is clearly not working.

I have no idea wich version I had before the crash.

RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 18.0) - rkpisanu - 2018-04-22

Is it possible to make an update to the kernel 4.12.12 because some mini pc/tablet intel x5-8350 have no sound with other kernels?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Yes it is possible, and you can do it yourself - build details are in the LibreELEC Wiki. Configure the repository to use the 4.12.12 kernel and then build the Generic project (please don't ask build-related questions in this thread - start a thread on the LibreELEC forum).

I won't be providing builds based on that kernel.


RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 18.0) - rkpisanu - 2018-04-23

Ok but when I use your update, is the kernel overwritten again ?

Yes, all LibreELEC builds will replace the kernel during the upgrade.

You should start a thread on the LibreELEC forum and maybe someone will have ideas about how your CherryTrail hardware can be supported with a mainline kernel. I believe some of the audio issues are caused by PulseAudio, and may be fixed in PulseAudio 12 (still under development).

Thanks, the crashing is caused by the Python optimisation and there may be a fix for that tonight. I'd like to leave it in tonight, and see where we're at tomorrow.

 Ok, what is the layer that uses LibreElec, Alsa, PulseAudio, or other?
