Thanks, I'll revert both commits mentioned in the linked post).

No need to revert the other commit mentioned in that post (14f4eaed) - it doesn't seem to cause any trouble.
 

After disconnecting the T680CI /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0 still exits. So, if
connected again it cannot create a frontend

I tested with 14f4eaed reverted but it doesn't solve this issue.

[Milhouse]

Ok, will not revert 14f4eaed - thanks.

Hello,

When I try to open a rom, I got a black screen and +/- 20 seconds I'm back in Kodi again. First Milhouse install on this Raspberry, so I don't know if it worked before.

Anyone got a solution?

Anyone got a solution?

 I'm sure someone does. But first, you need to supply a debug log.

[*]kernel: Revert "mm: alloc_contig: re-allow CMA to compact FS pages" (linux) (@smp1)

 
This is a potential fix for audio dropouts when pi is busy (e.g. live TV recording and playback or when running background jobs like torrents)
that appeared between the 4.9 and 4.14 kernels. If you've had this issue then please test and report.

Works for me, no dropouts anymore!
Thanks.

Should have known..

Fixed in https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/14313 . @Milhouse feel like including it? I'll merge tmrw anyway.

This log does not show you playing a game. Besides, read the post directly above yours.

EDIT: Yup you saw it

Sample 1 (DVD menu issue): shows blank screen (with gui menu overlay visible and audio). Disabling mmal makes it work. Disabling "adjust framerate" makes it work.
Sample 2 (BD issue): blank screen with audio when trying to start the movie from within an on-disc menu. Disabling mmal makes it work. Also no issues when starting the movie from "Select playback item" instead of the on-disc menu. 

Actually, sample #2 also work fine when "Adjust display refresh rate" is disabled. Both samples suffer from the same issue - the blank screen occur after the refresh rate is changed.

Hello everyone. I have several questions:

- Where can I find the moonlight and mpd client/server addons? I currently use those by running them from a Gentoo chroot + some systemd trickery for moonlight, but it would be nice if I could use the official (alpha) addons.

- I usually configure CEC to put the TV on standby when the screensaver starts. This does not seem to work anymore. Turning the TV on from standby when the screensaver stops works fine, so it seems libcec is working.

- I tried the new libretro feature. Installed thr fbalpha addon for arcade games, but none of the games start. They work fine on my PC when using retroarch. I am not at home at the moment, but I will provide a log when at home.

- A suggestion: by default when using some of the RPi DSP boards the volume is set to > 255. This will cause distortion. I think it is better to set the volume on all channel on 255 by default, but not higher.

Any instructions on how to create my own builds? Cross-compile, qemu or distcc?

Hi,

I have a couple of things i need some help with.

I need help with a new box i buy for the raspberry. It cames with swith off and reset buttons but i was not capable of install the pcb driver in librelec. The box "super nintendo pal from kintaro" cames with the instructions for install it in Retropie and Recalbox and i install the driver in Retropie and no problem. The command for install it is "wget -O - https://goo.gl/22RsN3 | bash" but bash command is not available. In previous posts i see the ash command from busybox replaced it but no sure how it works. The download is possible but i can not run the script.

I ask for help in kintaro but they told me they will investigate it. However not sure if they will answer. I would aprecciate if somebody can help me with it. It is not a crucial thing but would be nice if i can use the buttons too in libreelec. 

A second thing is i have a problem with Retroplayer. I am unable to run cue/bin or isos of psx. When i try to open it appears the loading logo appears 1-2 seconds but after dissapers and nothing happens. The isos are totally fine as they work in Retropie. This issue is persistent from the last update of the libreto addons

And the "Snes9x" emu seems broken i was trying to load some roms and the system always crashes or hangs. Some roms like "Fas east of Eden Zero" and other are not compatible with the Snes9x 2010 core.

Thanks for the help and your work in this project
