Hi,

I looked into that but i want to do away with my acer running windows, i was was just wanting to use this chromebox without my other PC running in the background.

Not sure if anyone can help me on this one. So I updates to Kodi. All was fine with past Gotham. Now when I add my advancedsettinga.xml file I don't see my lib anyone. I can do this on my Windows box without any issues.

Code:
<advancedsettings>

  <videodatabase>

    <type>mysql</type>

    <host>10.0.1.102</host>

    <port>3306</port>

    <user>xbmc</user>

    <pass>xbmc</pass>

  </videodatabase> 

  <musicdatabase>

    <type>mysql</type>

    <host>10.0.1.102</host>

    <port>3306</port>

    <user>xbmc</user>

    <pass>xbmc</pass>

  </musicdatabase>

  <videolibrary>

    <importwatchedstate>true</importwatchedstate>

    <importresumepoint>true</importresumepoint>

So found the issue! It was because booting so fast doesn't connect. Changed setting to delay boot some and works now!

somebody should put that in the wiki. Oh wait, it's already there! Smile

I've read and re-read the first post, but not sure how to update coreboot firmware... I've got standalone OE installed. How do I run the code below? From SSH terminal? Any instructions? Thanks.

Quote:Updating the coreboot Firmware
----------------------------------------
As of version 3.0 of the script, you can simply re-download/re-run the script under any Linux distro with a full bash shell. The dual-boot related options will be disabled, but the Standalone Setup / coreboot firmware update option will be available.

If you are running a Linux distro which does not have a full bash shell, such as OpenELEC, you should use my new standalone firmware updater script from an SSH terminal. This script is only intended to update a ChromeBox already running my custom coreboot firmware, and will not work under ChromeOS/ChromiumOS.

Code:
curl -L -O http://goo.gl/HSZer4
sudo bash HSZer4

Note: the 'sudo' prefix is not required under OpenELEC, since you are always logged in as the root user. Additionally, this script must be run immediately after booting, otherwise it may fail to detect the current firmware version.

but if it ain't broke, and there's nothing in the new firmware that specifically fixes an issue you are having (as listed in the changelog), then there's no reason to update.

I have a standalone OE setup, I copied the 4 files to the upgrade directory and then rebooted the Chromebox, afterwards it detected the files in the upgrade folder, but I had a black screen, so I hard powered down the chromebox and when I powered it back on it started to flicking the Kodi symbol with the mouse cursor showing on the screen in a endless loop. So now I am stuck and don't know how to reset this, any help is appreciated.

What I did was just copy the TAR file into the upgrade directory (no need to unzip - as per WIKI) and reboot.

that's not going to make any difference. He's stuck in a bootloop since some add-on, skin, etc isn't compatible with 5.0 -- which is why there's no automatic upgrade. Either way, this is a general OpenELEC install/upgrade issue, and best addressed somewhere other than this thread (since it's not an issue related to the script or dual booting)

I've been having this problem lately and was hoping someone could shed some light on it. I'm having buffering issues when streaming a movie that isn't on my hard drive. After about an hour it will start buffering. I press "O" and the cache(10mb most of the time but did see 20mb once) is down to 0. I increased the cache by following some of vids on Youtube and still no luck. If I start a new movie it will play fine but after about an hour I start having issues again. My internet is 100mbs but the Chromebox sees between 60-80mbs through a powerline converter. I think I have only had the issue at night so maybe it's a server issue?

given that it's a network/add-on issue, you'll likely get better support here: 200735 (thread)

Great instructions...even a novice like myself can follow them. Much appreciated.

Need some assistance / guidance on audio. I just bought an Asus Chromebox, followed the steps outline on the Page 1, created a stand alone OE...and frankly everything works. everything that is but the audio.....its brittle and scarcthy. Just cant seem to figure it out. Any one else have similar issues...if so how did you guys fix it.

Thanks

First I've heard of that issue on a ChromeBox. HDMI audio? connected to what AVR or TV? playing what format/sample rate audio? In what container?

Matt, it's strange, I have done a new install with OE 5 using the bootable stick. With the stick done a quick install and all is fine, but as soon as I put in the advancedsettings with mysql details it starts with the endless loop. I have already added the 10sec delay for network but that made no difference.

<advancedsettings>
<videodatabase>
<type>mysql</type>
<host>192.168.0.24</host>
<port>3306</port>
<user>xbmc</user>
<pass>xbmc</pass>
</videodatabase>
<musicdatabase>
<type>mysql</type>
<host>192.168.0.24</host>
<port>3306</port>
<user>xbmc</user>
<pass>xbmc</pass>
</musicdatabase>
</advancedsettings>

it's getting stranger, if I remove the network cable during this loop the kodi interface loads fine. Once I am connected with putty I can ping mysql host fine

Hey guys...

Ok so I have everything setup through MySQL and I want to update to OE 5.0.

First off, when I go look at the releases, I see 2 files (http://openelec.tv/get-openelec):

[Stable] OpenELEC 5.0.0 (x86_64)
[Stable] OpenELEC 5.0.0 (x86_64) Diskimage

Which do I use?

And from reading above, I see that we have to drop this into the /storage/.update/ folder and reboot.

What exactly is going to happen when I reboot?
Will this go out and create a new database and copy all of my content (database entries)?
Is this going to wipe away all of my MySQL settings?

I know to make a backup but I want to make sure I know what's going on before I do it...

I also have 5 rpi's to do but I suppose that's for a different thread Smile

Thanks in advance!

-Mike

Use the first one, the non-Diskimage version into the /storage/.update/ folder.

Once you reboot it will unpack the files and update OE.

Your MySQL settings are in advancedsettings.xml. It will connect to that MySQL db and add new databases for movies and music and copy all the current db values into the new tables (nothing will be lost including watched flags)

You must already have a wait for network delay added if you are already using MySQL but if you don't see your TV shows or Movies make sure you have that delay in the OE options configured.

That's it. Now if you have any other devices still using XBMC it will not keep both of these databases insync so it is best to update all devices to the same version.
