It appears, HDHR PVR available already in the windows/android nightly.This would be an excellent PVR add-on for all rpi 2 HDHomeRun tuner owners which seems to work as a native PVR.

Thank you

You might want to ask on the OpenELEC forum and see if someone is willing to add this client as I've tried building with this patch to add the package, but it fails with this error and I don't know why (OE packaging is not my strong suit).
I asked a q there. Got this cryptic response.

Good job I can just about speak cryptic. With @seo's help I've added PR:4469 which will be in tonight's build.

This is the switch to device-tree only. Can you try adding to config.txt:
Code:
dtparam=audio=on

Thanks, that seems to have done the trick!

Is there any reason not to have that setting?


RE: OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 16.0) - Knight Templar - 2015-11-28

I purchased a Pi2 2 a couple of weeks ago and have been running the latest stable version 6.0.0 of openelec successfully with no issues. I have tried to upgrade to the latest test builds out of curiosity more than anything but the issue I have is that Bitstreaming does not work on any of these versions, the audio is always output as lpcm to my AVR despite the correct settings being used. I cant seem to find anybody else with the same issue by searching. Can anybody help me with that?


RE: OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 16.0) - Milhouse - 2015-11-28

Post a screenshot of your audio settings.

Use imgur.com to host images - it works.


RE: OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 16.0) - Milhouse - 2015-11-28

So bitstreaming (passthrough) works correctly with OpenELEC 6.0, but with these test builds you only get PCM when playing the same files that worked with OE6? Hmmm... can you login to the Pi using ssh (username: root, password: openelec) and run the following commands:
Code:
systemctl stop kodi
cd /storage/.kodi/userdata
mv guisettings.xml guisettings.xml.bak
systemctl start kodi
You will need to reconfigure your audio, re-enabling passthrough etc., but see if that helps.


RE: OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 16.0) - Knight Templar - 2015-11-28

That's correct, I have tried as you suggested, like you said it re-set my audio settings and I re enabled pass-through but it is still outputting LPCM. Should I post Logs? I will need to read up on how to do it though.


RE: OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 16.0) - Milhouse - 2015-11-28

Yes, posting a debug log (wiki) would be the next step.

Edit: Easiest way now that you have ssh access is to enable debug in Settings > System > Logging > Enable debug logging, play your video, then in ssh:
Code:
paste /storage/.kodi/temp/kodi.log
You'll now have a url visible in ssh, copy/paste it into a new postin this thread.


RE: OpenELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 16.0) - Knight Templar - 2015-11-28

O.K so the strangest thing just happened. I enabled de bug logging and restarted Kodi, when I played a movie with a DTS soundtrack hey presto it's working and my AVR is decoding the audioHuh I disabled logging restarted again and it's still working fine, no more problem. I will leave people much smarter than me to try and puzzle that out, Thanks very much for your help Milhouse.

I noticed this too. It only seems to happen when playing a file with HD audio and the 8-channel HD audio decoding option enabled. When I switch to passthrough, playback works again.

Switching from OMX to MMAL also seems to fix the problem, but I'm still preferring OMX, because for some reason when using MMAL I always get intermittent video stuttering when playing 23.976 material.

Thank you Milhouse. The PVR Hdhomerun works great.

This PVR pulls epg from HDHR servers and layout of the epg is very good. Looks like 'Record' option is yet to come but overall I liked what I see

No issues to report yet.

Thank you again.
