Problems with LiveTV stuttering on Vero 4k+

@jahutchi

There’s a fix for Gigabit Ethernet on Vero 4K + where an issue was caused by using the wrong IRQ type. This should fix a number of issues including EEE.

Hopefully the issue is now addressed with the following commit:

I’d appreciate it if you could test this and provide feedback before we potentially release this as an update to other users. To test this update:

  1. Login via the command line
  2. Edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list
  3. Add the following line: deb http://apt.osmc.tv stretch-devel main
  4. Run the following commands to update: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && reboot
  5. Your system should have have received the update.

Please see if the issue is resolved.

I also recommend you edit /etc/apt/sources.list again and remove the line that you added after updating. This will return you to the normal update channel.

It would be good if you could check if you still experience occasional packet drops after this change.

Cheers

Sam
