1129 black screen

Without a crash log, nobody knows.

Code:

paste $(ls -1art /storage/.kodi/temp/kodi_crashlog* | tail -1)
journalctl -a | pastebinit
dmesg | pastebinit

it's arab for me

it's ok if I install a a build with problem and post a file on LIBREELEC\Logfiles ??

You can try that, yes.

With ssh:

(No samba alternative this time)

Edit: If you don't have ssh enabled, you'll need to downgrade to the last working (non-crashing) LibreELEC version, then enable SSH in LibreELEC Settings add-on, log in (username: root, password: libreelec) and run the command as above, then you should be able to upgrade without crashing. You can use PuTTY on Windows for ssh.

@Hefiled:

Using the "Save as..." option in your browser, save the following file autostart.sh to your device via Samba - save it in the Configfiles folder, with the name "autostart.sh" (case sensitive, without the quotes).

Reboot your crashing device.

Once it starts successfully, delete the Configfiles\autostart.sh file.

If it continues to crash, please upload your logs again.

@Milhouse
Thank you, problem solved

Happy New year

Have recently purchased an N3150, with 8gb ram and 120gb msata, and installed Linux mint 18 x64 Mate version, (want to run a couple of low resource 'other' apps on the same box, so openelec etc won't work for me), but finding that even though Kodi + live TV seems to work fine, I have trouble accessing the box from the network, copying stuff to/from, and generally doing anything much 'else' on it. Doesn't seem to be stressed at all - cpu/disk/network access not stressing, but, for example, if I SSH to the box, even my keystrokes take forever to be returned...
Any ideas? This is both when connected to Ethernet or wifi.
Thanks.

That worked, thanks!

I got myselfe a J3160 BeeBox. Dont know why but CPU Frequency Scaling is very poor on this Box. The CPU stays too long in low Frequency States wich results in bad UI Performance. Is that on every Brashwell Box or just the BeeBox a Problem?

Has this problem been resolved?, I too want to buy this beebox,

I'm trying to play a 4K video on my Beebox.  Is playing 4k supported on this Beebox or do I need a new NUC?

When I try Kodi restarts.

Crashlog -> http://ix.io/H6T
dmesg -> http://ix.io/H6U

thanks.

For 4k, over HDMI, AFAIK you're gonna need dual channel RAM and need to stick with maximum 30 fps and seemingly 8-bit (SDR/Non-HDR) content. Its a limitation of HDMI 1.4. Search the thread if looking at whats possible through DisplayPort.

So I've been running a TV tuner card on my N3150 for a while now.

It runs pretty well but every now and again the picture will go blocky for a split second.

This is by all means bearable, I just wondered if there is anything I can do to improve/remedy this? It can be a tad annoying when watching sport.

Is it simply the case that the hardware is not good enough?

I'm running one of Millhouse's recent Libreelec builds with VAAPI enabled.

Cheers,

Liam

 the 30Hz is a HDMI spec/bandwidth limitation, but the 8-bit/non-HDR limitation is due to the Braswell GPU.  DisplayPort will get you 60Hz but still limited to 8-bit/non-HDR

Out of interest Matt - when you talk about the 8-bit limitation I've noticed that for non-UHD resolutions output from an active Displayport 1.2->HDMI 2.0 converter I get 12 bit HDMI output at 1080p and 720p, not 8-bit, according to my HD Fury Vertex.  I guesss this is being padded with 4 LSBs of zeroes?  (This is Apollo Lake, but I think my Haswell Chromebox behaves similarly from its HDMI output)
