Hi popcornmix!

It happens on OE 6.0.3 also running with Confluence.

I will create a backup image and install a minimal setup to test with.

I'll get back to you.

Cheers

As I mentioned in this thread, I believe there is strong evidence of a bug in all of the Kodi 17 Milhouse builds.

Additionally, there is evidence of someone else repro'ing the same bug.

When I turn off the TV and then back on again or switch source away and back to the Pi 2, it loses signal to the Pi 2. I can repro this on 2 of my 3 televisions. Unlike Kougami, I can't make the issue go away by pressing buttons on my remote. I have to reboot the Pi on either TV. (Samsung, Vizio)

Here is a link to a log file - https://www.dropbox.com/s/ucv416avc7pgry...4.zip?dl=0

In both cases "tvservice -s" returns the same value when the TV is displaying signal and when it is displaying no signal. For instance -
BasementKodi:~ # tvservice -s
state 0x12000a [HDMI CEA (16) RGB lim 16:9], 1920x1080 @ 59.94Hz, progressive
BasementKodi:~ # tvservice -s
state 0x12000a [HDMI CEA (16) RGB lim 16:9], 1920x1080 @ 59.94Hz, progressive

When I try to specify a resolution in System>Video, it will only allow me to choose "Desktop", but that doesn't seem to be the issue, since tvservice is reporting back the correct resolution in any case.

Empirical evidence that this is a bug in these builds is that I can always correct the issue by rolling back to OE6, and always repro it by installing a Kodi 17 Milhouse build. Same behavior on both TVs.

Please let me know if there is anything else I can provide.

Thanks,
Jay

Debug is not enabled here. Enable debug logging. Reboot. Do what is needed to cause the problem. Capture logs.

Now it could be CEC related. Can you disable CEC in system/input/peripheral/cec setting and report if the problem still occurs?

Thanks popcornmix. Here is the log file after the repro with CEC still enabled. http://sprunge.us/JdfV

When I go into system>input devices>peripherals, a dialog appears showing only "cec adapter" and when I click it nothing really happens. The dialog flashes for a moment then reappears, again showing "cec adapter". (Settings = Expert)

Hi Milhouse,

Openelec repo is still not working. Haven't been able to access it since I started using your nightlies over a month ago. I did a fresh install of OE. Kodi repo works fine.

You should get a dialog full of settings from there. You can also disable CEC by adding to config.txt:

Code:
hdmi_ignore_cec=1

Hello,

are there specific install guidelines for the nightly builds?

I've tried three times without success:
- copied the tar file two times to the update folder
- uncompressed and copied KERNEL & SYSTEM files to the update folder

The checks of those files seem ok but then I get: "checking size: failed".
Any idea?

I've used that file on a RPi 1: http://milhouse.openelec.tv/builds/maste...026734.tar

A simple way is to install Leopold's updater add-on:

Did you reboot after you copy the upgrade tar image?

Thought main partition needs to be bigger for milhouse builds?

Try empty SD card and install openelec 6.0.3 which introduces larger partition, then update to and milhouse build.

Or see first post to resize partition

dsebastien · 2016-03-21, 01:33

@herrmeier01 yes, I did reboot, which lead to the error message. The KERNEL & SYSTEM images looked okay but then I get the 'checking size: failed'. Then Kodi starts up normally after 30s.

@vbat99 mhh I already have 6.0.3 on that RPi; here's my partition table:
Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
1 1049kB 132MB 131MB primary fat16 boot, lba
2 132MB 15.9GB 15.8GB primary ext4

Is that supposed to be any different?

dsebastien · 2016-03-21, 01:34

Forget my last post, I just saw the info on the first page (RTFM idd :p)

See note #5, first post in this thread.

From which build Kodi disables all third party addons if it chrashes? This was not the case in older builds. Now if something goes wrong all addons are disabled and you have to enable all by hand. It is annoying and harder to troubleshoot to find the right addon or. script module that is causing problem.
Is it at least possible to add an option to disable addons if crash occures or leave them as it is. It is easier to troubleshoot even if continuous restart of kodi occurs. Disabling all addons after crash makes it almost impossible to find the addon which is braking kodi.
