@jockyw2001: Well if you happen to have a streaming service account and a rooted tv you can execute the commands from post #392.

I patched ~/kodi/xbmc/cores/VideoPlayer/DVDCodecs/DVDFactoryCodec.cpp to always use ffmpeg codecs. I commented out the "platform specifig video decoders" block in function CDVDFactoryCodec::CreateVideoCodec.
1920x1080 HD streams play fine now. This is all I need for now.

@jockyw2001: The issue you mention is not related to this one. In your case extra data was not empty because the bitstream converter is created. The k5lp SoC just seems to fail at hardware acceleration completely, not related to inputstream.adaptive. While you can disable hw acceleration, it is not a good solution as the TV can only render at maximum 1080p content on the UI plane. Also there is only 60Hz available causing frame stutter. I guess it's better than nothing though

Though Kodi with HTS client now fully suits my purposes, I will inspect the extra data and see over which NAL the hw decoder stumbles.

Binary addons are not distributed in the official repositories currently. Wait for them to become available or compile them yourself

@sundermann: is there already a video hw decoder/renderer in the source code for my TV with k5lp SoC? It's running on rtd287o with webOS(none) n/a, kernel: Linux ARM 32-bit version 4.4.84-p.590.gyoen.k5lp.2

Awesome work guys! I wasn't expecting this to work on my LG C9 but the latest nightly seems to boot up.
I'm wanting to copy over some of my addons/userdata and have my .kodi folder backed up from an android install but swapping out the userdata folder in my webos kodi install with the android .kodi/userdata folder seems to stop WebOs kodi from booting.
Usually this works flawlessly between LE and Android Kodi but not this build.
Not sure if anyone is ale to support?
