Remuxes are not affected, only encodes with x265 version 3.1.*+. The CE team has acknowledged the issue and will look further into it. In the meantime, use seek to prevent stuttering on Amlogic-ng (S905X2, S922X etc) or use old Amlogic (S905,S912) for playback of encodes.
Hint: All releases which are marked x265 are encodes, and you can easily see it in mediainfo with
Writing library: x265 version [OS etc.]
Encoding settings: different parameters
Iāve successfully switched from meson-ir to amremote.
Amazing how much better this works.
I had to switch to RC6 which works fine with: āfdtput -t u /flash/dtb.img /meson-remote/ protocol 5ā.
But the dtb.img will be overwritten with every update and I have to reactivate it.
Does anyone have a hint how I can set this permanently ?
I did a clean install last week and have faced an odd issue lately which happens 2/5 times. The issue is related to network and CE as I canāt access the internet or CE settings. However, I can connect to my N2 with ssh, SMB etc, yet I canāt fetch data from the internet. Besides, I canāt enter CoreELEC settings at all. After a reboot, the network connection is likely fine and I can access CoreELEC settingsā¦
The connection is wired and N2ās IP is bind to the MAC in DHCP of my router. Iāve turned on/off the firewall in CE settings, changed skin back and forth between Estuary and MOD V2, changed network cable etc., but the issue still occurs. Any tips are appreciated! Will do some more testing tomorrow and try out earlier nighlies to see if they are fine. The last resort is to setup everything again manually which I did last week.
Update 1:
It seems N2 has access to the internet as I can ping and even download files to N2 with ssh, yet Kodi canāt seem to access the internet and CE settings are unavailable. As this is a unique case, itās not worth looking into, so Iāll do a complete re-install.
Update 2:
After a hard reset and re-setup of everything, the issue seems to be gone. If it happens again or with anyone else, we should probably look into it further. For the time being, leave it as it is.
is there a simple way to update the iptv simple addon? i never cross-compiled anything myself. is this just: download the source, crosscompile, ftp the built file to the plugins dir, install it from kodi? anyone experience with that?
the iptv addon is very outdated. i use it every day and i encounter some bugs which are fixed in the latest releases.
I never compiled just the addon itself. You can build CE, and then building the addon takes 3 seconds.
Itās possible to try and build the addon only, this will build all required package, which will take a while, but may work too.
thanks, i will try that the next weekend. i hope the documentation is beginner-friendly 
is anyone else having this problem too?
pvr.iptvsimple/archive were bumped to latest 3.8.7 yesterday, so theyāre in the latest nightly.
does anyone know if there is a problem with epg and iptv simple? it takes quiet long when i start coreelec until this gets resolved. it looks like there is something āblockingā but i can watch youtube etc. while this update dialog on the top right screen is visible.
kodi starts when i have a network connection.
i hoped the update of the plugin would solve that, but it did not
Fired up my N2 the other day and after some setup/teething issues itās now up and running really well. Well done to the crew for the efforts in supporting this new device. HDR looks excellent through the N2. The extra power over my old s905x is evident. Happy to test HDR10+ in the future when it is supported as my TV supports it all. Well done.
Hi,
Latest 9.2.1 build finally solve the issue with AAC and FLAC audio formats, so itās not needed to use a workaround (2.0 channels + AC3 transcoding enabled) anymore.
Would like to say BIG thanks to all who are developing CoreELEC. You are doing amazing work.
Would someone mind to test this 4K UHD sample file on their N2, the issue Iām seeing is extreme stutter in the beginning and later on in the full movie, skip 10s and the playback is smooth again.
I have seen this on more than this movie now and would like to see if itās on my box there a problem.
Thanksā¦
EDIT: Confirmed issue.
itās a known problem with some encodes. It should be solved when we switch to the kernel that is in the works right now.
What is the difference in *** Device Trees *** folder between āg12b_s922x_odroid_n2.dtbā and āg12b_s922x_odroid_n2_dvb.dtbā?
thank you for your help
Iāve wondered that too.
Itās for users who have DVB adapters connected via GPIO.
OK thanks for information.
Hmmmā¦ i seems to be moved to a stable build 9.2.1, and stopped receiving nightlies. Was this your work?
Edit: never mind. Found the thread about the new kernel. I think Iāll stick to this version until things are a bit more mature.
This is still a problem. I hope itāll be adressed someday as referenced here: Chapter skip on 4k Remux causes Kodi crash
So, my N2 just reboot loops.
Latest nightly.
Any advice?
No hdmi output, can hear external hardrive cycle up/down.
Edit:
Well, regarding my boot loop. I downloaded the CoreELEC-Amlogic-ng.arm-9.2-nightly_20200116-Odroid_N2.img flashed it to a microsd, and it boots.
How do I get that image to the emmc?
Thanks!
(brainfart thoughts; Would it be possible to add a counter of sorts.
That counts fast unsuccessful boots, and when it hits a limit, it decides to flash the latest successful image?)
ps. sorry for crosspost ds.
