CoreELEC 19 Matrix Discussion (Kodi RC)

In case you won’t see any problems with HD content can you share your NFS server share options from /etc/exports please?

I use NFS extensively. No issues with Matrix and this includes up to 65Gb 4K/HDR remux type files.

I am using Hanewin NFS server on a Win10 machine, and a typical export looks like:

"L:\TV Library 07"  -name:TVLibrary07 -alldirs -maproot:0 -mapall:0

I watched a 73GB movie and had no issues. I watched the screen stats occasionally and it said 0 drops or skips.

I have a CentOS7 server on standard GB networking.

The usual NFS exports look like this:

/path/to/export 192.168.1.xxx(ro,async,no_subtree_check)

Ok, installed Matrix in a card with the correct dtb and it boots, but then I can’t advance in the wizard because the remote doesn’t work. What can I do?

Still no issue __vpeter build.

Matrix 19 stable has the issue switching to 480p on reboot, not every time. http://ix.io/2Rs1

__vpeter test build http://ix.io/2RCw no issue yet. :+1:

Use a usb keyboard

Thank you, a good joke is always welcome :roll_eyes:

Please explain. What was the joke?

You use an usb keyboard to get past the first part of config and activate ssh. Then you can ssh to the device and configure your remote.

It makes sense now, but I never had to configure the remote before. I was hoping that I could edit some file in the card to make it use my remote (the original)

It’s possible that the remote was not included in Amlogic-ng builds. But You can copy it from your old installation.

I think this is your remote config.

You should be able to use CEC (TV remote)

My old installation (internal) is a regular 9.2.6, not ng.
Could you please point me on which file should I copy from 9.2.6 and where do I put it?

that mecool is already included. I have no idea if you are using meson-ir or amremote. depends either rc_maps.cfg or remote.conf. You probably did set it up before.

Missing feature or possibly bug, AAC decoding. I am unable to hear any sound from a file encooded with AAC. This particular file has 7.1 channels. My receiver does not have AAC decoding so I usually turn off Passthrough, however,I still do not hear any audio.

within /storage/.config (9.2.6) I have a file named rc_maps.cfg with the line “meson-ir * mecool”.
Can I copy it to the card root?

You can probably only mount the /flash with your Windows PC unless you have a Linux Desktop.

Otherwise try to activate ssh with a usb keyboard or CEC then copy those files over with samba.

Sorry Ray, I’m not following you. I use Windows and have access to the booting card. I just created rc_maps.cfg in the root.
Is that /flash an hidden partition? If so how can I mount it from windows?

It’s not a hidden partition it is a linux partition. You only see the first partition in Windows which is /flash in CE. You need /storage which is a linux filesystem and you won’t be able to read or write it on windows.
