Hi guys,
Just got my Intel NUC. It's a D54250WYK (so i5) with 8GB RAM + SSD + WiFi card
Awesome little beast by the way.
Just followed these instructions to install UBUNTU then KODI on my NUC
http://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Install_KOD..._Intel_NUC
1) This part hasn't been updated to KODI
http://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Install_KOD...PulseAudio
So I just tried to "convert" everything that had XBMC in it to KODI
So created a Kodi XSession and a Kodi_ALSA XSession
For some reason both XSessions would appear as "Kodi"
Being unable to tell one from the other, I just kept the Kodi_ALSA XSession, which is still called Kodi but whatever.
I'm unsure if the wrapper script works and I would like to know how to test if Pulse is deactivated when in Kodi, and if I'm relying on Alsa.
I really want to make sure i get DTS-HD and TrueHD
2) I have this stupid overscan problem in UBUNTU
I know this is not a Ubuntu Forum... but people here are knowledgeful in the HTPC + TV field
And when I'm in Kodi I could fix it (in parameters)
Every google search I've done would tell me to use the TV settings.
I have this stupid Sharp Aquos LCD TV that's 40 inches and there is NO option to do that... and it is getting me much annoyed.
Stupid TV has the simplest option menu ever.
Any idea how to fix the overscan in Ubuntu?
3) From the same tutorial, I'm trying to make my IR receiver work with a HARMONY ONE remote :
http://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Set_up_an_M...l_in_Linux
I did install lirc
then
I select Logitech
And in the "MyHarmony" remote configuration I added two devices : Intel NUC and XBMC
None will work
Except when the Intel NUC is off, if I select the device Intel NUC and click "Power Toggle" it will turn it on!
So the IR receiver does work, but as soon as Ubuntu starts, it doesn't do anything.
In KODI, it's the same. None of the buttons respond.
