Nightly builds (NEW)

@filkint
Please don’t publically post links to these nightly releases.
They were removed from the archive page for a good reason and to avoid users from bricking their devices.

You can instead PM a link to single users if they ask for it, of course.

I understand everything, and I will do so, please excuse me!

Hello everyone.
Using CoreELEC nightly_20200731 (Amlogic-ng.arm) on KI Pro, I have problems with Kodi being very sluggish after turning off options in Input devices > CEC Adapter. I have set the config file for the latest libCEC option. This happens either after I disable the second option (Change to active source…) or Send Inactive source command (not sure what exact names are since I am using translated version and the system is very sluggish). The problem seems to be resolved after I choose to reset to defaults or manually change those to their defaults.

So not exactly a needed fix, but I guess this could be a bug you could look into?

dispinfo: http://ix.io/2t4p
dmesg: http://ix.io/2t4s

S905x generic, updated from 20200712 to 20200731. Library is now empty, although sources and files are still accessible. Updated to 9.2.3.95, but library remains empty. Rescan does not repopulate it. Backend is MariaDB 10.5.

Need to downgrade, links please?

Thanks to @filkint for sending .tar of 0730 now all is ok so definitely build 0731 have some problems

Hang on, hang on… the problem is not on CoreELEC’s side but on the server. Disabling

innodb_compression_default=ON

in my.ini makes the library appear again…

Could one of the devs please confirm that active compression on MariaDB 10.5.x is still a problem with 18.8 code base and after the bump of MariaDB connector?

It may result in empty library or “0” instead of titles. However, this is easily fixed when compression is turned off again and sources are re-scraped (entries are still there).

Hi, I guess I dont help you, as I dont have that variable setuped in my my.cnf’s (originated by @vpeter), so I cant tell. But also I am using CE 10.3.14 on box marias, and 10.1.37 on my router.

If time permits I will bump version of the addon and try this myself.
@HeresJohnny: If Iunderstand correctly the problem is only with the connector in Kodi? MariaDB server version is always the same?
With which version of the connector problem come? 3.1.9 ? But 3.1.1 is fine?

I have no idea if the connector is involved. It only happens starting from MariaDB 10.5 and the thing that seems to trigger the problem is this line in my.ini/my.cnf:

innodb_compression_default=ON

I’ve heard Kodi devs removed all amlogic specific code from Matrix.
Does that mean we are stuck at Leia forever or there’s a hope to have Matrix builds in future?

Is there anyway to use 9.2.4 or latest nightlys but roll Kodi back to 18.7?

You could try to replace System file on your box.
But it’s better to inform us what is wrong in 18.8 that you want to use 18.7

Kodi 18.8 has a bug in the skinning engine, see here https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/issues/18239

If this is the commit: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/commit/cb8b7f9b4fa0437ad184b5170f065333e44c5b51
We can revert it. Are you able to build and test it?

Yep, I’m pretty sure that is the commit.

I can test it but unfortunately I can’t build it :frowning:

@roidy Here: https://mega.nz/file/Eo4UhAbB#Pm6xF3cIxIp0A2d96lo9FjxKnGqLI243sTsFrUV77Rc

Perfect… Thanks, I can confirm your new build fixes the ReplaceWindow bug.

@roidy I have been looking at the changes and it fixes some other issue. Do you need the “return” parameter at all? Just drop “return”.
