Serge (who does the packaging for raspbian) did say:

I haven't been able to find anything that talks about using the regulatory domain provided by the access point.
crda itself only takes a specific country code. wpa_supplicant does the same and dhcpcd doesn't seem to meddle with crda at all. According to that page, neither does NetworkManager.

I can't test everything out since my AP doesn't seem to specify the country. If someone has a setup that updates the regulatory domain using the information provided by the access point, then that would be a starting point. I'll keep looking but I haven't found software that does this yet.

So, if anyone can link to documentation or source code that suggests what the desired behaviour should be we can investigate further.

I did mine with hdparm, and used the autostart.sh file to have it trigger every boot.
Got mine set for 10mins, and works fine.

I think you need to purchase the two codecs from the raspberry foundation, mpg2 and wvc1.
But 1st try enabling allow hardware acceleration - mmal. Its in the settings, under player/videos.

Isn't it basically a CodecInfo with less information while showing a title picture/thumbnail of what is currently playing? It looks good though but not enough info. Couldn't it be the same info as in the CodecInfo since the font is smaller and all?

Be aware that the current PlayerDebug is mostly unofficial info that I find useful in these test builds - most of the information is not in upstream kodi code.
So there isn't any overlap of info in upstream kodi - but if you want to see codec info and skips/drops then you need to use both PlayerDebug and PlayerProcessInfo.

Is the PlayerDebug Value "Speed + 1.000%" a typo and should be "Speed x 1.000%" or it this related to some sort of playback issueHuh

The Pi can decode these losslessly to 8 channel PCM.
It cannot passthrough HD audio format.

Hmmm... but Kodi is clearly checking the repository for an update (and failing).

I don't know, it makes no sense for this to have only started with #0814. Are you absolutely sure you don't see this in #0813 or earlier?

I'm not able to reproduce, so perhaps a clean .kodi will help.
Install 7.0.2 from image: OK, update to build #819: the same issue.
Must have internet connection then problem is solved Sad

I've noticed in recent test builds (including #0819) that Video setting -> 'Set as default for all media' for 'Deinterlace method' doesn't seem to be retained over a power cycle or libreelec restart, although it does affect all other video files until you restart.
The other settings (I checked 'Zoom amount') are retained over a restart.

I know RPi deinterlace is in active development in these builds and automaticaly setting it to 'auto' on restart helps get more community debug time, but hopefully this is only for debugging and won't also affect mainline when the changes get merged.

In my case, deinterlace still doesn't work 100% reliably for PVR use cases using OMX player (skipping forward/back over changes in aspect ratio causes OMX to lock up, although MMAL is now fixed).

IMO OMX still has slightly better picture quality and smoother playback with the files I use (UK DVB-S/S2/T/T2 recordings).
The slightly lower CPU usage also plays better with a wi-fi connection to my mythbackend when running on B/B+/Zero.

Hi,

first of all thanks for your effort in bringing us these builds everydaySmile

Now my question. I am using the next gen bootloader to be able to boot my rpi3 from usb. Is there any chance that you use in your builds the bootcode.bin and start.elf from the next branch?

Can you find a way I can reproduce this? E.g. do you get this from a recording that includes an aspect ratio change.
Quote:IMO OMX still has slightly better picture quality and smoother playback with the files I use (UK DVB-S/S2/T/T2 recordings).
The pixels arriving at display should be bit identical between omx and mmal. It is possible that one or other may drop/skip frames which could result in less smooth playback.
Again if it can be reproduced from a recording I can investigate.

I am having really slow network speeds with these builds. If I use latest stable build (LibreELEC-RPi2.arm-7.0.2.tar) network is fast but not with these builds. Am I missing something.
