v17 LibreELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 17.0)
I'd rather we didn't continue the overclocking discussion here (as it can go on and on, and has nothing to do with testing these builds), however I just wanted to comment on the following:

(2016-08-07, 17:42)smp1 Wrote: over_voltage_sdram doesn't seem to do anything for stability, I think it doesn't even work on RPi3.

over_voltage_sdram sets over_voltage_sdram_p, over_voltage_sdram_i and over_voltage_sdram_c simultaneously.

over_voltage_sdram_p - sets the phystical voltage for the SDRAM
over_voltage_sdram_i - sets the voltage for SDRAM I/O
over_voltage_sdram_c - sets the voltage for the SDRAM controller

I needed to set over_voltage_sdram=5 (and sdram_schmoo=0x02000020) for a stable sdram_freq=580, so it does improve stability. Without bumping the SDRAM voltage I'd have SDRAM errors.

(2016-08-07, 17:42)smp1 Wrote: I don't see the point of OCing the sdcard.

I have a NOOBS 8GB sd card and "dtparam=sd_overclock=100" increases the sequential read performance from about 20MB/s to 42MB/s, so quite worthwhile (if your card supports it).

If one would want to rebuild your latest builds, where would one get the latest sources? Does https://github.com/MilhouseVH/LibreELEC.tv/tree/master have everything that's in #806?

Thanks Smile

No, it's not on github. The patches are pulled dynamically and are included in each tar file.

Sorry for the hijack. Thanks for all the info.

Hi Markruiten,

I have a similar setup as you do but with HiFiBerry Digi, LE 7.0.2, and have iOS 9 compatibility enabled.

Airplay doesn't seem to work for me, it does show on my phone, I am able to "cast" to it, but no sound comes out of the speakers. The stream doesn't disconnect though, as soon as I switch back to my phone, the stream plays on the phone as it it weren't interrupted.

Have you heard of others with similar problems? has anyone responded to your comment (I looked into a few forum pages after your comments, haven't seen a response or quote).

Anyone else perhaps with similar issues?
bingo! #807 fixed pvr stalker client hls streaming that my local provider uses up here.
the issue that has been since #701 is gone.

thanks!

I have not gotten Airplay to work reliably since IOS 9. Occasionally I can get an audio connection, usually on the 4th or 5th try. Video is known to not work.
@popcornmix, I have noticed a small bug with "system/settings/rbp.xml".

Since the last settings reshuffle "Decode the stero stream from 3D files" is in the "Teletext" section (group id="5") instead of the "Stereoscopic 3D" section (group id="4").

Thanks Bill for responding.

I've tried this evening disabling iOS 9 support, and as you mentioned, the audio works sometimes. I already had this issue on my windows setup, I was just hoping that maybe it would work on LE Smile

We know the Kodi team would have implemented it nicely if the protocol specs would be available.

Thanks - will be fixed in next build.

Hi,

Im a long time kodi/xbmc user, but this is my 1st time using this build, and i have to say its fantastic compared to the other distribution i'd been using, This is so much further ahead with v17, very stable maybe 1-2 reboots a day, which is great for a beta build.

Anyway I have 1 question which may have already been answered.
Does LibreElec use any sort of hard disc spindown, and if so how long after inactivity does it activate.

Thanks again for such a great built.

Regards

Bucky.. Big Grin
No, you have to achieve that via HD-Idle Addon (tools.hd-idle-7.0.0.zip)
