If i enable omxplayer i have 5.1 audio on livetv channels, also If i play any movie with 5.1 AC3 or 5.1 DTS using mmal everything is normal.

Note that live TV disables passthrough with VideoPlayer. Possibly you have incorrect audio settings that only work with passthrough.
Does disabling passthrough stop movies with DTS/AC3 from working?
How is Pi connected to receiver? What is "number of channels" set to in audio settings?

PI2 -> HDMI -> LG TV 42LA660 -> OPITCAL -> LG 5.1 Home Cinema
I set the number of channels to 5.1 in kodi settings. Now i realised that i have sound only in left and right speaker but no voice (because center and rear are not working).
If i disable passthrough i only get stereo output.
Thanks.

That is your problem. Optical only supports two physical channels. You *must* set "number of channels" to 2.0.
If you want to get multichannel output with live tv, then you need to enable AC3 transcoding.


RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 18.0) - Sholander - 2017-01-11

On LG TVs Optical audio output IS multi channel (5.1) when external audio device (digital optical) is selected, and input is on Auto:

Input -> Output

MPEG -> PCM

Dolby Digital -> Dolby Digital

Dolby Digital Plus -> Dolby Digital

HE-AAC -> Dolby Digital

DTS -> DTS / PCM

DTS Express -> PCM

DTS-HD MA -> PCM / DTS

No. The number of physical PCM channels is two for optical.
You can use passthrough to transmit compressed AC3 or DTS audio through two PCM channels.
(but not passthrough is not supported from live sources, like TV - but we can transcode to AC3 to allow multichannel)

You cannot use optical for multichannel PCM. Therefore you *must* set "number of channels" to 2.0.

Yes, is working now. Thanks a lot for your help.
Also, I'm wondering, there are advantages using dvdplayer instead of omx ? Now i'm using dvdplayer beacause it support no-cache on pvr client, making zapping a lot faster.

Hi Milhouse,

are there any news regarding the problem with auto mount large external drive partitions ?

Not from me I'm afraid, I don't really have much more to add. Something changed in #1023, presumably the bump to 4.8.4 There are some fuse-related fixes in the 4.8.4 changelog but not sure if they would be responsible for fuse not mounting this disk. At the moment I don't know what to suggest, hopefully someone else does. Assuming this behaviour is also in the official 7.90.010 release (and it should be) you could try posting details on the LibreELEC forum and see if anyone from the LibreELEC team has anything to contribute.

Edit: A workaround would be to add the mount command in autostart.sh

Thanks for the report. I've alerted the developers.

Can you try this with build #0111:

Code:
cd /storage/.config/system.d
sed '/^ConditionPathExists/d' /usr/lib/systemd/system/[email protected] > ./[email protected]
systemctl daemon-reload
reboot

and see if that fixes your remote control.

To revert the change (once this issue is fixed in LibreELEC):
Code:
rm /storage/.config/system.d/[email protected]
systemctl daemon-reload
reboot



RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 18.0) - radekson5 - 2017-01-12

Hi Milhouse,
after update from #0107 to #0111, my RPI3 couldn't boot from USB without SD card.. only black screen, but after some seconds RPI show splash screen. I think, this is boot from lan from new firmware.
I had to manually upload files fixup.dat and start.elf and RPI started to boot but kodi anyway crashed.
I use boot from USB without SD for several months.
I returned to #0107.

crach log is here http://sprunge.us/Dhcf

Can you post your /flash/cmdline.txt and /flash/config.txt?

Edit: Also, there has been new firmware in builds #0109 and #0110 so it would be useful to know which build between #0107 and #0111 introduces the slow booting behaviour - just use the normal update mechanism rather than copy over your own firmware. Not sure about the crash, it looks like you didn't have a working display...maybe because you didn't copy bootcode.bin?

cmdline.txt
Code:

yes I use the normal update mechanism, but after the update, I thought it stopped working.

Edit: Tomorrow I'll try some other versions .. Today I tried only # 0110 and # 0111
