Amazing work, thank you!

Quick question - one of the notes in the kodi blog (Kodi "Leia" 18.7 Release | News) has
“* Fix crash if an incompatible VFS addon is present” - has that been pulled through into the OSMC package for vfs too?

This release is based on Kodi v18.7.1, so all changes outlined in that blog post will be present if applicable to Linux/GLES platforms.

Hello
Where I can find SACD addon please?

Is Wireguard in the June release?

Thanks for the speedy update, seems to working nicely, perhaps it’s just an illusion but it seems like my vero4k+ got a bit snappier/more responsive which is always nice.

A post was split to a new topic: SMB connection issue after June update

The 4.9 build has the Wireguard kernel module backported

  • [*] Updated :page_facing_up:

RAR VFS is also updated?

Is the new kernel part of this update?

I assume you refer to the 4.9 Kernel for Vero? Then the answer is No, that is still on the testing thread.
For Pi it is mentioned in the blog.

I’m on 4.9 - Is this update available?

Yes, Kernel 4.9 repository is independent from the main repository.

I’m using older versions of the OSMC remote control and had mapped the FF and FR buttons to control VolumeUP and VolumeDown via a custom XML configuration file. This update seems to have spoiled that. How can I re-map the function of those buttons?

This update won’t have caused any changes, but the March update made some changes to how the remote is handled. We’ve covered the changes in detail here: OSMC Remote - Long Press Keymap Guide

You can either use the Keymap Editor add-on or else at the end of the guide that Sam linked to their is a keymap examples that shows the code to manually make that particular change.
