I setup a remote using ir-keytable but it seems to be repeating the last key that was pressed when a new button is pressed. For example if I press the down key then the ok key it will issue a second downkey command when I press the ok button. This makes navigation impossible. Anyone else experience this?

Optimal settings 4K TV for highest quality upscaling:
Kodi dynamic refresh switching must be activated for this to work:
Kodi Settings > Player Settings > Video > Adjust Display refresh rate > Start/Stop
Do not enable Sync playback to display.
Then pick which type of video content you view the most and set the LibreELEC Kodi user interface to that resolution.
720p:
Viewing 720p content, leave the Kodi interface set at 720p and let the 4K TV upscale picture outputs 720p > 4K
1080p:
Viewing 1080p content, leave the Kodi interface set at 1080p and let the 4k TV upscale picture outputs 1080p > 4K
4K:
Viewing 4K content, leave the Kodi interface set at 720p or 1080p and let LibreELEC auto resolution switch your TV to 4K and then output 4K video to the 4K TV.

Kodi will never resolution switch to a lower resolution that what the user interface is currently selected to.
This is the same for all LE Kodi devices.
Eg if you select 1080p it can only switch upwards to 4K
if you select 720p for the user interface resolution then LE Kodi can resolution switch up to 1080p or 4K - depending on what you are viewing.
Set the lowest user interface resolution Kodi will allow in its Settings if watching DVD's. You might be able to set 480p or 720p.

Remove any AVR you may have in the HDMI chain.
If you cannot even select a 3840x2160p (4K) resolution in Kodi settings - manually then you have a HDMI Handshake problem and not all the TV display modes are being read properly by the C2.

I would say @Raybuntu's - as he keeps right on top of the latest developments - and has added extra tweaks and Addons to his 32bit LE releases.
It also has some backported media build DVB Tuner support.
The 64bit LE compatible .tar update I posted at the top of the thread is pretty bang up to date as well. It has some Linux Kernel H264 video playback improvements in it that i need for watching H264 1080i Live TV.
64bit (aarch64) is not compatible with 32bit (arm) releases. See Raybuntu's ODROID C2 thread Page #1 for switchover 64bit > 32bit details.
