CoreELEC 20.0-Nexus_beta1 Discussion

About the Hyperion.NG: just run a manual update with latest version available. Then it should start running again. It also stopped here right now and did not work after reboot to. After update it’s running again.

The installed Hyperion NG will system work well if it is removed and re -established.

I just tried to upgrade from to 20.0beta1 (nightly build 20221119) and everything went fine.
But afterwards I was no more able to play DVD copies (VIDEO_TS) - “one or more items failed to play”.
There are a few messages in the log about libdvdnav not finding the stream.
Other files play well and after downgrading, the DVD copies are able to play again.

@vpeter This was the issue I mentioned here:- CoreELEC 20.0-Nexus_alpha3 Discussion - #32 by roidy

However this solution does not work for me:-

PS C:\Users\roidy> ssh root@192.168.0.13 '/usr/bin/sed -e "s|^export LANG=\(.*\)|#export LANG=\1|g" -e "s|^export LC_ALL=\(.*\)|#export LC_ALL=\1|g" -i /opt/etc/profile'
root@192.168.0.13's password:
sh: -c: line 2: syntax error: unexpected end of file

Update:- Seems it only works from a Linux or OSX terminal. Windows Terminal or Command Prompt doesn’t work.

Update went fine but I can’t play any DVD folders from SMB shares.

This is on a HK1RBOX S905X4 2GB/100M booting Coreelec 20.0-Nexus_beta1 from SD card, accessing DVD folders from either a Windows or Linux server. Tried latest nightlies, same problem.

DVD folder structure is typical VIDEO_TS containing .ifo and .vob files etc. The individual .vob files play fine, and the DVD plays fine from local storage (e.g. USB drive). Just not via SMB, which gives a “Playback Failed - One or more items failed to play” alert.

Relevant log section below, looks like libdvd can’t open the .ifo

Hoping this is an easy fix.

Thanks, Jon.

I can’t play DVD folders from nfs shares either. All other filetypes play OK. As do ISOs of the DVD folders.

I updated from Matrix to Nexus and had zero problems.

Good Day

I just installed a new image but sftp is not working and i cannot find the service / add on for it.

any advice please

Thanks

I think you will have to provide much more info to even understand what is the issue.

Hi @vpeter

So in 19.5 i installed the sftp addon / service to allow me to connect to my shares. Now i cannot find this and connected via NFS.

So was just wondering if this has now changed.

EDIT: It was the Virtual File System Add-On in v19.x that I installed but do not see it in v20.x

Enigma2 PVR addon - very rarely shows the Live TV tab
Mostly it does not, which means I cannot execute the addon

Enigma works fine (can access it from any other device on the network)

Any ideas?

Thanks, but I have no issue with plugin itself, when the LIve TV tab shows, it works great. It is just that CE20 does not see it most of the time as PVR

Closed, please continue here:

Thanks, but I have no error. I just (most of the time) do not get the Live TV tab)
