And how can we track the error?
It’s a pity if I have to restart the Odroid again and again.
Especially with TV it is very depressing.
For example, when zapping between 2 channels.
And why should we do without the hardware decoder?
That’s exactly the strength of the Odroid N2 - strong hardware.
I just want us to get to the wrong side.
Perhaps the bug is known and will be fixed shortly?
I use x96 mini and got the same error on 9.2.1, so I had to downgrade to 9.2.0. Videos wouldn’t play, Kodi would freeze and I would have to reboot via SSH. Since downgrade no issues.
Yes, I made a backup for security.
I went under update to 9.2.0 and completed the downgrade.
The settings remained the same.
Now I’ll test.
Under Audio Output Device you can not take all.
Some have a shrill tone on Netflix etc.
I selected the AML SDIF. It works for music, video and TV without this shrill sound. The dogs bark
This issue will be addressed when there are some logs provided and more specific information regarding how to reproduce etc. Let us know if you guys need any input on how to provide logs
As I said its been worked on and solutions been tested. However it would be useful for everyone who is effected by this to submit logs to confirm that they are all been effected by the same bugs. Its not a simple matter to resolve and the more data available the more likely it is that a solution will be found.
At the moment I’m back on CE 9.2.0 and it doesn’t seem like the problem here.
I will look for the log because I had activated the log from the beginning.
It must not have been overwritten after the downgrade.
Newbie question: How are you guys turning on/off the decoder?
Is this the hardware acceleration in CE settings? (I don’t ever touch these settings btw)
I’ve only had my N2 for a few weeks, but I’ve yet to encounter something it can’t play. Perhaps it’s cause I reboot my N2 daily, right before I begin using it. It’s just a habit I’ve gotten myself into for years now.
Yes, the hardware acceleration can be found under Audio.
Amlogic decoder with 3 settings, for example “MP4 Acceleration”.
This decoder crashes more often at CE 9.2.1.
Then only a restart or disabling of the hardware decoder helps, but this also means that the software decoding does not run smoothly and goes to the resources.
I watch via the PVR/VU+ addon TV. It’s just not fun when the hardware decoder crashes. I can no longer switch between channels because the image remains black.
Hi, is there any further thread/reply on this topic? i have Wetek Play 2 (s905h ver c) and the issues I get with 9.2.2 and 9.2.1 are exactly same as described above. Shall I downgrade back to 9.2.0? Thank you.
I hoped for having this already tested since 2-3 months time. There were logs submitted but I could not see any feedback.
I just downgraded and the issue appeared in 9.2.0 also.
I will get the logs, but if in the meantime there would be any progress/experience since last logs I would appreciate it.
Thanks
Same problem with my X96 mini 2/16 S905W since CE 9.2.1 and latest (9.2.3).
Black screen with h264 content (PVR IPTV Simple Client).
If I disable h264 accelerate the problem disappear but the video play with lag.
If I enable the h264 accelerate with kodi started or reboot the device the content play works well.
I prefer to stay in CoreELEC 9.2.0 becase works well but the update message it’s annoying, all the time I power on the device…
[EDIT] No hint to avoid update…
I’ve got too a H96 Max x2 (S905X2) with 9.2.2 or 9.2.3 and no problem.
