fritsch and others, I've noticed with the bump to kernel 4.5 that my hauppauge IR receiver is no longer working. Digging into it I see /sys/module/rc_hauppauge no longer exists. I've tried googling to see if this was a change upstream, but it looks like that is still included. What can I do to look into getting this working?

Seems to be gone from kernel config. If you send me a PR with the needed modules I include them again.

Nope ... for now we have only one such report -> yours. But your backtrace shows the threads 1 and 24 fighting against each other.

Hey fritsch, can you include pvr.hdhomerun in your next build?

Yeah ... so it's not only the addon ...
Edit: If it works with Milhouse builds please use these - I need to focus on VideoPlayer testing.

Cool :-) I plan to stop my special builds anyways as there is no need anymore. VideoPlayer development is finished and we are heading into the v17.0 direction. The biggest changes are done and Milhouse does a great job with his builds anyways. So the only difference between his and my builds are most likely:
- I bump xf86-video-intel more often
- We currently use libva 1.7.0 and libva-driver-intel 1.7.0, which will only be relevant when the first Kabilake Broxton are available
- I only package pure fernetmenta master branch, so no other experimental patches
but besides that. All the intel special stuff with Limited Passthrough and so on Milhouse also has.

It's not about the extra work, really not - but I don't want to support an entire distribution, that was not the intention of these builds here :-) - I want to concentrate on the core stuff and this is not possible if you break yet another machine every second day. I had a week off last week and finally could accomplish to get some upstream work done for kodi. We have more people that can package for kodi than we have developers that write code for kodi. I think I can help kodi most if I don't get sidetracked too often :-)
I plan to release new builds the very moment we need to test Kabilake / Broxton HEVC 10 bit stuff.
@Millhouse: Do you ship the 16:235 Limited intel systemd service, too? If yes - don't push it to LibreElec's v16 branch as kodi v16 cannot do EGL and this mode is sadly useless.
