I am new to the whole RPI concept, so this is very basic question:

I have got LibreELEC running, and downloaded the .tar, but I cannot find the "update" folder to copy it in.

Do you plug the SD card with the image in a Windows PC?

or in the RPI running Raspberrian?

or under OPENELEC itself?

or through a network?

Any clue would be appreciated.
Thx,
the update folder is hidden, I do it through ssh, and to get there you would put a period before update, ie: cd .update

1st. Enable display of hidden files and folders in LibreELEC

System > Settings > Appearance > File Lists > Show hidden files and directories

2nd. Have a USB Flash Drive with .tar file plugged into the Raspberry Pi and then go to "File Manager" to copy it into the ".update" folder

System > File Manager > storage > .update

then "Reboot" your Pi to auto start the update procedure.

Has this started with #0525? If not which is the last build when the time is set correctly? Does it happen with LibreELEC 7.0.1?

You shouldn't need to set pool.ntp.org as that's already the default (0.pool.ntp.org, 1.pool.ntp.org, 2.pool.ntp.org, 3.pool.ntp.org). If the time isn't being set then you may not have an internet connection - are you sure it's not a local network issue (are you using WiFi or wired, DHCP or static? Is a local timeserver - such as your router - being used that isn't accurate)? Try resetting your router.

Well, I don't recall if it was correct in any LibreELEC version. It was correct in OpenELEC. I can try an older version pre-0525 and see it it corrects itself.

I removed pool.ntp.org but no difference.

The RPI2 definitely has an internet connection as I can ping external addresses by DNS name or IP address.

I'm using wired, DHCP, and the router is configured for pool.ntp.org, GMT-5 which is all correct.

I'll try rebooting the router. issuing "date" on the commandline shows same time as Kodi, so the RPI2 itself is picking up the wrong time. It's as if it's ignoring the GMT offset and showing GMT+0 (or UTC)
Is it just the time that is incorrect, and not also the date? Have you set the timezone correctly in Kodi?

oh good grief! this is a PEBCAK (Problem Exists Between Chair and Keyboard).

no i didn't. sorry for wasting your time (no pun intended). it's been a long week.

cheers and thanks for pointing out the obvious to me

This is designed to improve the stall that occurs a few seconds after start of playback or seeking. Report if it helps.

This seems improved in the latest 2605 build, although still not 100% smooth at the start of 1080p birds.mkv

2505 felt like a regression: more dropped/skipped frames, IMHO 2605 is better.

No need to copy anything, do it by terminal, and let the RPI download it:

Code:
ssh [email protected] (or ssh [email protected].*)
cd .update
wget http://milhouse.libreelec.tv/builds/master/RPi2/***.tar
reboot

This requires a linux/osx machine, but since Microsoft finally has seen the light, you can use a Bash shell in Windows 10 (soon) to run above commands:

I've the same issue.. timezone is set correctly to Britain (UK) in Kodi, date is lagging and time is completely off...
It started lately, didn't notice when. Tried to change a timezone to something else, restart, waited a bit for ntp update... nothing... even when back to GMT timezone. Will try to go back few realeases to find out.
Connected via LAN to router, same setup for several years now, router is synced with ntp and aligned
Any idea?

Thanks in advance
