CoreELEC

[rooted]

I need meson_ir I don't need lirc which is somehow interfering with ir-keytable.

It's just a bug I found when trying to get it to work, so no hurry. Enjoy your holiday

i`m using the original h-k remote control and n_2 and Netflix on kodi...new i`d find a good reason to put it to work one day..the time has come for using it
what a blast,,,
any way it`s been fun working out what it can and cannot do...i hope H-K can bring out a new remote that has more Buttons/options..but the hk one is a joy to use on core/elect...phase...///...

Trying to play back an avi file but screen goes black and only way out is to press stop button on remote. There is no indication that the avi file is playing. I tried the same file on my Kodi on my Linux computer (intel CPU) and it plays fine. Is this a known issue with these files?

[cdu13a]

avi is just a container format, will need to know more about the file and also debug logs to be able to be able to determine why it doesn't play.

In Settings/System/Logging enable Debug logging and component specific logging. Specify that you want FFmpeg and Video component. Reboot, try to play the file, then go to CoreELEC settings System/Submit Log and Upload Kodi Log, then post the provided URL here. After this you can disable the debug and component specific logging.

If you can provide a link to a small sample of the file that won't play for the the developers to try and reproduce your problem with that would be helpful as well. Just a 5 to 10 second sample is good if you can. Note samples larger then that tend to be hard to manage(to big of a file) and are problematic in other ways if it is commercial content(TV show or Movie).

EDIT:Rerecorded avi file as mk4 file and it works now

can anybody tell/help me to get Firefox to work with this system..???

[rooted]

I don't know a way to use Firefox on CoreELEC, there are some browser type plugins for Kodi but I've never used them.

can anybody tell/help me to get Firefox to work with this system..???

No way to get Firefox on CoreElec. You need to install a version of Linux or Android to get Firefox on N2...

[phaseshifter]

would core-elec run just as well on a 2 gig version of the N-2...or would it be pushing limit`s memory wise..thx ..phase..

[mad_ady]

For regular usage (kodi/games) 2G is enough. But since it has docker you can start a lot of containers and those will use up your ram.

any idea how good deinterlaceing of 480p stuff is vs c2?

[Sholander]

Hmm, 480p stuff is not interlaced, so why would it need deinterlacing...

The new 9.2.1 stable release of CoreELEC is now available.

For everyone on the previous stable release with auto updates turned on, you probably already have gotten the update notification.

For those that would rather manually update or want to do a new install the new stable version can be downloaded here

The release notes for the 9.2.1 release can be read here

NOTE about updates:
Just a reminder when downloading the update files, If you have an Odroid-N2 you want to use "amlogic-ng" update files, otherwise if you have a C2 you want to use the "amlogic" update files.

NOTE about new install:
I've noticed a few new users get confused about the mention of dtb files and the "copy device tree" step of the install instructions. This part of the install instructions is only relevant to generic amlogic android devices, the CoreELEC images for the Odroid-N2 and Ordroid-C2 have this step already completed for you and come ready to be used. So all you have to do to install is:
1.) Download the CoreELEC image. (The download helper will help you get the right one)
2.) Burn the downloaded image to your sd card or emmc module.
3.) Attach your sd-card or emmc module to your Odroid, then power on your Odroid.
4.) Add your media and any preferred configuration for your intended use.
5.) Sit back and relax with a snack and a drink, and enjoy using your new setup. (The most important step. )
