Update. With original skin there are also issues: sound stopping but coming back after about 10 seconds or when skipping. I will create logfile later today

try clean install, only switch to default skin does not solve it

Thanks! Other thing to ask is how to update in this case? I guess OTA update, nor the common update tar file copy method will not resolve this, as it will update the “X2 generic” image as that is what originally installed on the SD card for this Box…? So I guess I need a “from zero” fresh new burning of the new 9.2.6 “GT1 mini” dedicated image? Please someone make it clear form me!

No, just update with 9.2.6 and after update replace dtb.img with the new one available.

9.2.6 runs smooth as silk on my N2/N2+. No issues with playback freezing when skipping ahead/backwards while viewing content on my SMB & NFS shares. The Mrs is loving the automated bluetooth reconnect.

Continued thanks to the hardworking Devs.

I did a clean install of 9.2.6 (N2). Now there is no freezing of the video. Everything works perfectly. Although I have not restored the configuration completely yet.

Good that you tried it already, because I didn’t find something wrong in your logs.
So it possible some config or addon issue.

Hello,
during video playback, minor twitches occur at repetitive intervals. Log - http://ix.io/2QN2
I tried too 19 nightly - the same problem.

Looks like whitelist feature is not working correctly in this case and it use 60Hz instead of 23.976Hz

2021-02-25 09:17:06.996 T:4064755728  NOTICE: Whitelist search for: width: 1920, height: 1080, fps: 23.976, 3D: false
2021-02-25 09:17:07.000 T:4064755728  NOTICE: Display resolution ADJUST : 1920x1080 @ 60.00 - Full Screen (16) (weight: 0.000)

Try to switch off whitelist

Does this video work correctly on 9.2.5 with whitelist enabled?

Hi and thanks a lot for the great work devs!

I’ve updated from 9.2.5 on an ODroid N2+ and I’m having issues playing videos: the sound goes on and off, the video stutter and, finally, kodi freezes completely (need to restart it using ssh)
Here are the logs (no whitelist, 1080p, 23.98hz) :
kodi.log: http://ix.io/2QNr (couldn’t use the GUI way so did “cat .kodi/temp/kodi.log | paste”)
dmesg: http://ix.io/2QNq

I also tried with whitelist ans 60hz: http://ix.io/2QNu

The same file reads fine on 9.2.5.
I’ll try with a clean install to see if it helps and report back.

Please collect this logs for more details

After that please downgrade and upgrade again and if all works collect new logs to compare

Thanks for your help, I can’t collect the log using kodi GUI as it completely crashes, I’ll try to collect all the logs using ssh and report back.

I did a clean install (on another usb key) and the file reads fine, here is the log: http://ix.io/2QNF

If it’s a configuration issue, is there a way to pinpoint it so I don’t have to start my config from scratch?

Just try to downgrade to 9.2.5 and upgrade to 9.2.6 again first

What does “Fixed CEC driver (Amlogic-NG)” mean? (pointer to commit welcome)

9.2.6 - whitelist off - video o.k.
9.2.5 - whitelist off - video o.k.
9.2.5 - whitelist on - video not o.k.

Did it a few time already, just tried it again, same results.

Is there a command (or script) to get the same debug info from CLI ?

ce-debug
this part is for absent configs
