Samsung UE49KS7080. From what I see it can do HDR+ because there is an option in the menu. It came via firmware update. For Samsung it was called hdr1000 back in 2016.

But you are right, any TV showing this information would be a better choice. Maybe one could pass a Mediamarkt or another random TV store :slight_smile:

Hello, has anyone tried passthrough dolby atmos and trueHD to av receiver?

157

Is that something that has known issues to certain AV receivers?

158

I once activated the debug log but I see it still logging. Is this a bug/wanted by the devs?

“Enable debug logging” is off. However, zip files are coming in in the Logfiles folder.

I found 1 article
Don’t know if it can be applied, but you can try on you own risk

The wifi adapter works just fine. After setup was complete, I went back into CoreElec settings and was able to configure it. The bug was just that it ‘crashed/failed’ during setup.

161

I’ve just turned on my TV and the N2 come out of suspend mode through CEC and all the artwork was missing from my movies plus the recently added and Movie tab are showing as a list, if I change it back to shift and then go back to main dash and back again it shows a list again. Only a reboot brings everything back to how it should be.

Should I not bother with suspend mode through CEC? it was just set like that to start with.
What is the best state to leave the box in when not in use?

Thanks

When I come out of Suspend (chosen from power menu, not via CEC) on my box I have the Settings screens all messed up. Reboot fixes this back to normal…

163

Yes I’ve done that to get to service menu 2 but the overscan adjustment options were removed from the menu just in time for my model :frowning:

I had just assumed that the Video Calibration option would be there as it has been all the way back to OpenELEC (and even Android) on my old M8 S802.

Probably time for a new TV anyway :cry:

164

To LG 1080p

165

My TV , the physic pixel is 1920x1080, but compatible with 4k, so in the white list I can see 3840x2160@30hz option, I leave the whitelist blank.,playback the sample video, TV display the hdmi signal is 3840x2160@24Hz. it means N2 hdmi output is 4K. the picture stutter.
N2 connect to pc monitor(support 1080P@50/60hz,not support 24Hz), in the whitelist, the max option is 1920x1080P@60hz, playback the sample video, monitor show the signal is 1080P, the picture no stutter.,no skip.

166

Good news!! Got my N2 10 mins ago, installed CoreELEC and Video Calibration is there and works perfectly. No overscan for me!!

My Viera lives to fight another day!!

Thanks for your help anyway :slight_smile:

It’s interesting what kind of issues show once more people get an device. I don’t have it here. Can you make a screenshot and kodi debug log?

Also @chowyunfatt can you make a screenshot and kodi debug log.

168

The issue I am having waking up from suspend with CEC is I have no picture my AVR says “No Signal” in the display I have to switch input and then back to N2 to get picture, but that could be AVR related not sure it is annoying though to get the AVR remote to.

169

Posting some pictures, sorry all I had time to do nipping out.
Will look at this some more later and the logs.

Most artwork is missing, again the view option has changed and also the main dash has missing covers. The database is on mysql via synology nas.

Probably AVR related, is your dash set to 1080p? I had a similar problem setting it to 4096.
Setting it to 4096 and changing between various movies i kept losing the signal but 3840 and below worked fine.

I’ve just left GUI at 1080p I think that’s best for now.

171

It means your TV or AVR is blocking the wakup. Only on routing change (Changing HDMI input and back) it will wake it up.

172

OK, N2 up and running now, just a couple of issues…

Firstly, changing to Crazycat DVB drivers (which I need for my PCTV 292e dongle) stops the official Odroid Remote from working.

Second, (total n00b question - sorry) - How do I install CoreELEC to eMMC? I got the SD eMMC Reader but my Windows PC won’t recognise it. Do I need to do this in Linux or is my USB card reader not compatible? eMMC currently has Ubuntu installed.

Thanks for your help

Use Etcher : https://www.balena.io/etcher/

Either with an adapter and flash like you would flash an microsd card with CE. Or use my script. You need to install CE on SD card and run odroidn2toemmc. Follow instructions. Still beta.
