CoreELEC 8.95.5

Does this build have auto color space and color depth switching or should I remain on 8.95.4.42 if I want those features?
Thanks

Please try with installation on external media. It’s well known that there’s no support offered for CE installed to internal storage

It does not.

IR remotes do not work for me with this build. First time I’ve had this problem wiht any build.

@rodriguezd There will be more test builds with the auto switching soon. If you are interested in helping test that feature. It just needed to be removed from the main release until it has been a bit more polished.

I’ve just got home after 5 hours. Turned on TV and noticed Kodi had started. Event log shows 10.42am start. No idea what time I turned TV off . So looks like it was sooo sloooow.

I do not understand automatic switching works fine with this latest version?

@Bindou

Thanks but, Ido not understand.
On version 9.95.5, it works well automatic switching (color et Hz). Why try a version of this switch that works less well? What should this new version of automatic switching bring?

Automatic color depth and color space switching is NOT SUPPORTED in 8.95.5, as it’s using the 8.95.3 kernel.
This has nothing to do with resolution and refresh rate automatic switching, which has always worked fine, and still does.

Ok thank you, however, the automatic resolution switching and refresh rate, no longer worked after 8.95.3. with 8.95.5, everything came back in order. And for me, switching the color space goes from 8bits to 10bits automatically.

In this version 8.95.5, when I try to watch something from the tvshow library, system get crashed and freezes, I have to unplug my H96 Pro + S912 to get back to the system. It didn’t happen in the previous versions.
This is what I get from kodi.log

Post a debug log.

Hi @TheCoolest, here’s debug log
Kodi.log

Thanks. I just wanted to make sure that the changes introduced in iptvarchive didn’t break anything. Looks like it hasn’t in your case.
Since there was a Kodi version bump, and possibly a version bump in some addons, I suggest you try to reproduce this problem with Kodi Beta5 for Windows/Linux with the same version of the addon, and see if the problem happens there too.

Hi - I think the headline describes the problem.Re-booting via power off/on didn’t halp - same issue. On another box (905x) the update went well - but the DVBviewer plug-in didn’t function anymore. Update of the add-on wasn’t successful either.

Went back to 8.95.4.3 - everything seems to be fine again :slight_smile:

No logs - no problem.
Please post a full debug log.

Thanks for you reply!
I tried 18Beta5 on windows without any problem also I tried with balbes150 LE Beta5 build for S912 without problem too, it’s happening only on this version, the debug log that I sent you came from a fresh CE installation.

Hi Guys,

CoreELEC updated just fine on my 2 boxes.

Just a bit confused regarding the automatic colour depth and colour space switching.
My 4k HDR TV reports it is displaying HDR just fine with CoreELEC.

Can anyone please explain to me (a tech thickie) just what automatic colour depth and colour space switching is and what it does?

Many thanks
