CoreELEC 19 Matrix Discussion (Kodi RC)

Development Development & Testing
232

Hm, does not seem to be my day today. Tried to test CE 19 on my Mecool M8s Pro+ Box (S905X), flashed the file
https://relkai.coreelec.org/ce-19/CoreELEC-Amlogic-ng.arm-19.0-Matrix_nightly_20210102-Generic.img.gz
for that, took the file gxl_p212_1g.dtb and copied it over to the root folder and renamed it to dtb.img.

Result is: nothing happens after the (great looking) new year splash screen… any ideas? Wrong image? Wrong dtb file ?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Update: i am just a dork… I was just impatient on the first boot and took the wrong dtb file. In fact it is the gxl_p212_2g.dtb and it works now :slight_smile:

Great work. Everything I use works except backup coreelec and kodi settings. It starts but before it ends Kodi is restarted and no backup saved.

235

Thanks, will do :wink:

I had the same problem. I was able to trace it to Aeon Trajo skin and Red Carpet Actresses add-on. Well, at least uninstalling them fixed it for me.

237

I’ve had some skipped frames with the latest build. The video file should be okay, standard HEVC encode I’ve done and HW decoded.

I have a stable coreelec 9.2.5 on my N2’s installed to the SD card. Can I just download the tar and update it like that via the standard process or need to reinstall? I don’t use any addon or crazy skins.

239

Yes, just dump the file in the .update folder, but first make a full system backup, and keep it handy on a USB Flash drive, just in case the update fails and you have to revert back to 9.2.5

Posting this here rather than the addons forum as its more relevant to Matrix
For anyone needing it the Zomboided VPN Manager is available pre-release for Matrix Here

I notice some UDP FHD streams cannot fill in the buffer, just shifting between 0-2% with no sound.
On Kodi Leia builds buffer goes up to 20%

But it not enough correctly! On 19th not working ir remote, but on 18 is worked. Im tried all messon configs, but got unlucky.

245

as_id, you can’t expect any useful response from description you gave. A lot of people are using IR the same way as with CE 9.2.

246

Okay, confirming that the remote is running on a Ki pro with the Matrix on board can help here. And it would be nice to have a link to config …

247

as_id, the configuration is the same as it was in previous version. Can you write what you did?

248

ALL of them? Repository for AmRemote & Meson IR Remote Controllers

I guess my Minix U9-H will have to retire later on then, will probably wait for the stable release of Kodi Matrix. What are the best devices nowadays for Coreelec? Thanks CE team for your awesome work, my current 9.2.5 setup works wonders!

All of mecool

That’s by design.
