Can you identify the first build with this problem?

Hi popcornmix, thank you for replying.

Yes I can try it, but I guess it's a bit difficult.

In the past I have marked these builds as bad:

Code:

OpenELEC (Milhouse) - Version: devel-20150208010157-r20214-gae13e63 [Build #0207]
OpenELEC (Milhouse) - Version: devel-20150209231906-r20243-g5cc415e [Build #0209]
OpenELEC (Milhouse) - Version: devel-20150210231559-r20244-gfbf2f0f [Build #0210]
OpenELEC (Milhouse) - Version: devel-20150212210444-r20260-gce008d6 [Build #0212]
OpenELEC (Milhouse) - Version: devel-20150214210140-r20272-gd879c70 [Build #0214]

but I have no idea when the problem started.

Now I'm running build #1215 and everything seems to work well.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Did you mean #215 or something else?
Ideally I'd like you to report something like all builds up to and including #215 are good. All builds from #216 and later are bad.
Then we can look at the changes in that build.

BTW, I tried to play a movie with flac (Lossless) audio on both Pi b+ and Pi2 B. The playback was really sluggish and audio was several seconds ahead. I tried all possible settings. OMXPlayer hardware support made it better but not enough to make it watchable.
Doesn't the DVDPlayer/OMXPlayer support flac?

I see the problem. Not sure if it is flac related.

The video is actually level 4.2 and 1080p60 (we only claim to support up to Blu-Ray quality which is level 4.1) and had:

Code:

Format/Info                              : Advanced Video Codec
Format profile                           : [email protected]
Frame rate                               : 59.880 fps
Original frame rate                      : 59.940 fps

and the framerate discrepancy tends to cause difficulties in syncing audio and video.

It may be possible to fix, but really the encoding options should be set to something more sane.

No, sorry, i did build #1215

[popcornmix]

No, sorry, i did build #1215

Okay, so that doesn't narrow it down too much. There are ~60 builds between those two points, so you should be able to find
the exact build in about 6 tests (by always testing a build from the middle of newest working and oldest non-working build).

OK, it'll be a bit hard but I'll let you know.

Many thanks for your time.

[rbmaster]

Tried this latest build and all my usb storage devices were not mounted. (2 single partition HDDs formatted with NTFS and one usb stock formatted to ext4. Tried to reconnected them after boot and the only thing that happens is the message saying they got disconnected, but there's no message saying they were connected when I reconnect them, and so they keep being unmounted.

Latest working build is 220.

[slack3r]

I was wrong, ignore this post.

I can confirm that with build #0221 and onwards on my RaspPi B my external hd doesn't get mounted.

It appears with it's name, but there is no content available. NTFS formatted.

I noticed this also. Probably related to the systemd update?

EDIT: Looks like it may be fixed in the next build https://github.com/OpenELEC/OpenELEC.tv/...2470ad0791

[Milhouse]

EDIT: After updating to this build my NTFS partitions stopped being mounted on boot. Simply reverting to version 220 fixes that.

There's a new commit that might address this problem (368f9ae5a). I've uploaded test builds with the new commit - can you confirm if this build behaves any differently?

#0222b: RPi / RPi2

All good again, thank you very much!

[Loom]

Another thing I noticed some builds ago:

Some minutes after booting there's a message "Failed to download Splash Video".

What kind of video should that be, and why can't it be downloaded? Maybe it's not supposed to work on the Pi ?

For me too.

Thank you for your great work Milhouse
