Well, that's not totally true. But I accept it.

I figured out an alternative to that patch but still working out a clean way to add it to Intel's driver code. It fixes both the missing 44.1 kHz audio on some TV/AVR and the frame skips at 59.940 refresh. Original patch is not required so pipeline can stay at 12-bit like the stock 4.7 kernel. Dithering is disabled so I don't think it looks any different than 8-bit (at least on my TV). Extra bits are just padded. I only test on HDMI so your DisplayPort->HDMI setup might still have those two bugs I mentioned but should work as well as older OpenElec builds for you.
That 8-bit patch is still a good idea to keep in the long run since Kodi is unlikely to take advantage of 12-bit for a long time. Since I don't have access to any Intel DisplayPort hardware, you will need someone else to look at why it doesn't work for you. The DP code is very complicated to debug. Hopefully Intel can fix it.

I'm using these Builds for a while now already. Working really good for my setup, exept one issue in combination with my AVR.
Usually I switch on my TV, then the AVR (Denon X1200W) and at least my Braswell-based HTPC. Waiting a
In this scenario, there is no GUI-sound in Kodi. Once I turn off the AVR and power on again, everything's working. Changing the switch-on sequence to TV->HTPC-AVR has the same result.
Is these any kind of HDMI-handshake problem and is there any chance, to fix this in LE?
With my former Yamaha AVR everything was working, as expexted.
I've reported these issue to Denon, but there's not much to expect from their side.
So my question to you guys...any idea to fix this from LE-side?
Please let me know, if you need logs or more information.

I had updated my Zotac Zbox ci321 nano from libreelec v7.02 to libreelec v7.90.005 and now I have issues to wake up the device via IR-remote. The Power.Off-button and all others works fine, only Power.On works no more. With v7.02 there was no problems.
Then I tested the milhous-rls and found out, that the releases up to 'LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-8.0-Milhouse-20160421040821-#0420-gfee76be' works with rc-power.on, later releases up to the current version #907 not.
Is there any chance for a fix?

EDIT: My own conclusion is then that it's the DP->HDMI chip that is causing the issues, not that I have a 10bit TV panel.

So the LSPCON patch added in #0905 had no effect?
