I have significant audio sync issues in 20 and 21 (the only versions I’ve ever used). Sometimes everything is synced up, sometimes very much so not, even on the same video files. Haven’t found a pattern.
I think I saw a suggestion in this thread - to press the “left” button, to rewind the video 10 seconds, and then the sync may improve.
Or use unpause jumpback addon.

Hello,
Sorry, some vacations here 
No the file NOKIA takes no extension at all.
I personally create this file in an SSH session with nano and copy/paste content through the SSH session, maybe this works also with notepad and copy the file afterward.
Real nice addon, thank you.
Maybe it would also be possible to hide the GUI immediately after pressing play?
Hello,
I hope someone can help me.
I get a blackscreen when I start a media that is in Dolby Vision via the addon PlexMod.
I use the Nightly CE 20 version.
If I use PKC then I don’t have the problem, everything plays, but I would like to use the PlexMod, because I was otherwise very satisfied with it.
Does anyone have similar problems?
when i tried this on ce 20 is says invalid client during sign in process client id is incorrect
API key error?
try this for CE 20

I have made a log.
PlexMod causes a black screen when I start a playback that is in Dolby Vision.
It works fine on Android with the addon, but I would like to use it on CoreELEC.
Edit:
Problem solved.
I have activated the Player Led mode
Is the Nokia 8010 Streaming Box at the same functionality level now as the Homatics/Dune models?
I vaguely recall that the firmware was more outdated on these and so some problems couldn’t be resolved without firmware being updated like on the Homatics.
Hello, I am using CE build 20.2 nightly on Homatics Dune HD edition box. I am trying to set up ssh key pair so that I can avoid using password auth when connecting to the box via ssh.
First of all I was bit surprised I can’t create new user for this rather than root, but I can anticipate this is the nature of this OS.
So I generated -t rsa key pair. It was placed into /storage/.ssh As I am hopping from windows box I converted private key into .ppk for putty/pageant. When disabling PasswordAuthentication via Kodi UI (I found that option in CE setting) and try to ssh, then it seems keys are not picked up ad I get No supported auth method available. Connection is dropped then.
Does anybody have ssh keys set up and working for CE on Homatics box? If so, where the keys should be placed? Is /storage/.ssh correct place?
Thank you.
I have my keys in /storage/.ssh/authorized_keys file. And this has nothing special with Homatics or any other device.
vim3 $ cat /storage/.ssh/authorized_keys
from="x.x.x.x" ssh-rsa key_chairs...................... rsa-key-20210923
.....
Yeah, exactly. As as it is easier for me to generate keys directly on Homatics box, I didn’t use ssh-copy to transfer the public key, but rather touched the authorized_keys and cat id_rsa.pub > authorized_keys. Restarted ssh, but this doesn’t work and the key is not picked up. I just wanted to confirm I have the correct spot to store the file. I might try to regenerate new key pair.
I’ve been dealing with the same problem. So I’ve put the Homatics Box behind a smart plug now so that I can restart it using Alexa or from my phone whenever this happens.
Not sure what am I doing wrong. As I don’t currently have Linux box at home, I tried to generate the keys in CoreElec.
CoreELEC:~/.ssh # pwd
/storage/.ssh
ssh-keygen -t rsa
touch authorized_keys
cat id_rsa.pub > authorized_keys
CoreELEC:~/.ssh # cat authorized_keys
ssh-rsa ................. root@CoreELEC
As the keys are generated by OpenSSH and I am using Putty at home, I then go to puttygen and convert generated private key into Putty *.ppk format. Then I add it into pageant (where I am already using set of other private keys that are working fine with remote servers).
Also I assume sshd.conf is read only in CE, so nothing to be changed there and “PasswordAuthentication no” is set up in CE GUI via “deactivate SSH password”. Then if I ssh to the box, I got “no supported authentication methods available (server sent: publickey, keyboard interactive)”
So I also tried to generate keys the other way around on my Windows box using puttygen that should also work. I press “Generate”, then take the public key section and past it into /storage/.ssh/authorized_keys. Then I save private key on my winndows and try the same as above. Unfortunately same result, so what Am I doing wrong?
I guess permissions are ok. After each change I also restarted CE, however I think this is not needed.
CoreELEC:~/.ssh # ls -la

drwx------ 2 root root 1024 Aug 27 09:17 .
drwxr-xr-x 15 root root 1024 Aug 27 09:32 ..

CoreELEC:~/.ssh #
from the nature of the error, it seems to me that it doesn’t like the public key. But vpeter confirmed the /storage/.ssh/authorized_keys is the correct place for the key.

It works

Looking to buy one as it’s cheaper here than Homatics.
Using too old putty maybe? Try different SSH client (like KiTTY).
oh dear, thanks vpeter for correct direction. sure, I was using my old putty that has been working for ages (inside SuperPutty, so didn’t have reason to touch it), so I tried the latest version, and voila. : )
perfect and thank you!
