Have just copied 0223g onto the rPi, so will reboot it and see if it's any different.

Thanks for all the testing.

Can you try build #0223h for RPi2 - this includes a patch from @menakite:

https://clbin.com/oOPug

It will be interesting to see if this has any effect.

It most certainly does have an effect...

#0223h is busy scanning my files into my library and it's not crashing..

No idea where @menakite patch comes from but I'm currently raising a virtual glass in his direction (and an equally large one in yours too!). You'll probably tell me it's a placebo effect but in about 5 hours of solid scanning time I might have a complete library again

I'm not moving from this version until I know it's been included in later versions

Thanks!

I'm using this alpha build (because of lots of issues with stable OpenElec builds) on my RPi (model B) and am very happy with it, so many thanks for that!
Because of being an alpha I have had some system hangs during video playback.
Since build #0220 it seems to be fixed so far.
However I have another issue. I watched a movie and stopped it, then I turn off my tv (my RPi is always on). Then I go to sleep and woke up because my tv turned on. Some activity (however screen is black) triggered my tv to turn on. This happend twice

Can you try disabling CEC in system/input/peripherals/CEC settings and confirm if it is CEC causing this.

Correct, disabled it and my tv did not woke up anymore

I have problems of switching audiotrack in latest builds (no problem with build #0118).
When I play a MKV or ISO, and I want to switch audio track, kodi is crashing and rebooting.
Unfortunately, I can't post any log or sample right now but I wanted to know if other people experienced such problems.

Regards.

Does this affect latest build? There was a possible fix for a crash in CMMALRenderer::RenderUpate

[vandamme]

I tested on build #0222 not the latest #0224.

[vandamme]

Just tested with build #0224 and everything is perfect

[doldi]

Same Problem in Kodi Win32 Jarvis release and actuell Kryptons testbuild.

Kodi15,2_20151019 and 6.0-Milhouse-20151001210244-#1001 have no problem.

all testbuilds (win/RPi) above are dissatisfying in this regard, sorry.


Just tested with build #0224 and everything is not perfect.

[nb2a]

Noticed in build 224 that shortcut settings for add ons do not seem to show up after setting them up.

Keep trying, will work eventually. Not a problem unique to these builds.

Can't really do or say much without the relevant logs.

I've just uploaded the latest tranmission add-on to the addons folder but if it still doesn't work you'll need to provide more information, and/or determine which of these OpenELEC builds is the first that stops the transmission add-on from downloading.
