Do one playback test at a time. What I did back when I did FEL testing was play one file, replicate the issue, immediately go back and do a log upload.
The log upload fails due to upload size limits (I think around 2MB?), these debug logs get large real quick which is why I tested that way.
Thought I was clever when I rebooted and did one sample test only before trying to upload but I see my log file was like 19MB still.
I deleted the log file, rebooted and redid the DTDL sample test but as soon as the video plays the log file balloons, and it’s again over 19MB
Anyway, it seems like it’s a general problem in the latest nightlies, so if any of the devs has a FEL compatible device it should be easy to replicate for them.
But there are not that many DTDL files out in the wild except for test files are there?
BDMV/ISO/M2TS files with DTDL still work fine here.
And DTDL MKV files are quite rare. In fact if you open such an MKV in MakeMKV it will tell you it’s “bad” and offer to convert it to an STDL MKV.
Ok, but the DTDL MKV sample which is not displaying FEL in latest nightlies, works fine and displays the FEL layer in older nightlies though.
Also the FEL sample where the woman with the camera appears (FEL_test_for_AVS.m2ts) no longer shows the woman in the latest nightlies
Understand that DTDL FEL is not commonplace, but it was working 1-2 weeks ago so some change actually broke it. It is still best if it can be restored as something else may have broken as well.
Does FEL sample where “the woman with camera” appears at 80s mark in .mkv format?
I ask because that never stopped working for me on any nightly and cpm builds.
FEL is still working cpm builds as he has moved away from basing his builds on nightlies.
DTDL FEL not working on recent CE nightlies, but is still working on latest cpm builds (A7 and onwards).
FEL_test_for_AVS.m2ts, i.e. woman with camera, does not show woman for me on nightlies starting from 25th of October (non-cpm)
I just tested today’s nightly (20241105) and all my tests show the woman with the camera:
So I suppose a fix was implemented, @Portisch?
I don’t have any DTDL MP4 files, so I could not check those.
Can confirm also that FEL seems to be working fine again with latest nightly. All samples show FEL layer again.
Today, all of a sudden on Ugoos AM8 Pro (S928x-J), after update with CoreELEC-Amlogic-NE.aarch64-22.0-Piers_nightly_20241105-Generic.img - USB 3.0 hard disk is not visible or detected anywhere, CoreElec does not share it automatically, neither on the USB-C socket. When I changed socket, the usb dongle of the remote cotrol is working very bad all of a sudden.
USB disk not shared nor visible on the network anymore
Additionally, the CoreElec settings inside the menu are not opening.
No tv series tonight.
Tomorrow will reinstall 10.24 update back. I think I will give up on AM8 Pro and setup the new Minix U22-XJ, especially since AM8 Pro will get no FEL support.
Anybody else meeting problems with this update?
Why do you use CE22 in the first place? Just go with CE21-ne and it will be fine.
I thought that NE, 22, newer Kodi, newer kernel… things should be better. I was wrong. Reinstalled CoreELEC-Amlogic-ne.aarch64-22.0-Piers_nightly_20241024-Generic.img and everything works as usual and should have from the very beginning. USB disks visible and playable again, machine is smooth.
‘Black.Panther.2018._Menu_Test.iso’ This video will play with Gt King II but not AM8.Device reboots when playing with AM8.

Hey big boss, how’s the dynamic buffer actually works? If I remember correctly I saw in log that the memory was set to the lowest option (20MB) Is it dynamically increased in the process of watching the movie or whats better in comparsion of fixed 756MB. I believe that I got back to the fixed method due to low memory utilization as I was afraid of to fall into empty buffer when the internet connection is not in ideal condition like heavy rain or so. Can you please tell me if it was bad decision and also how it actually works?
Why are you testing NO as opposed to NE ?
Is there no DTB for the a311d2 in 5.4.210 kernel?
Or just testing to test what functions are working?
I tested the black panther test.iso on CoreELEC latest nightly NE 5.4.210 on X96X10 PRO S928X-J
From external drive or direct from videos folder in CoreELEC
Playback is fine,can read all titles/select any and playback.
From smb share home network
No so good 
Constant buff/ unwatchable
This video does not work with AM8 in both CE structures.(Kernel 5.15.119 and 5.4.210)
With AM8, Kodi reboots every time.
Works with A311D2 in both CE constructions.(Kernel 5.15.119 and 5.4.210)

Okay
As posted
Testing direct from WD my Passport Terabyte drive,or by copy n paste test file to CoreELEC videos folder
Used the Ugoos Am6b Plus and the X96X10 PRO
Latest nightly on both boxes
Both playback fine no issues
We have very basic smb network share setup
This is where issues occur
Just to load can be 5 to 10 secs
Play back is choppy erratic
Converted your test file iso to mkv improved a little bit.
I only experience issues with smb share when testing remux. iso
Remux .ts files
MP4 and MKV never seem to have issues
And not all .iso files.
Try testing playback directly (if you haven’t already)
See if works
The Am8 and X96X10 PRO have same S928X-J?
I did a clean install today and AM8 played the video ‘Black.Panther.2018._Menu_Test.iso’.
After installing Netflix and Amazon add-ons, the video ‘Black.Panther.2018._Menu_Test.iso’ did not play again
