[TESTING] Kodi 18 (Leia) builds for Raspberry Pi

Testing
1359

ah okay i feared my rpi would start crapping out on me – that being said, i have the same exact problem. After the most recent update the pi boots to the homescreen and then goes into an infinite crash loop (sadface)

in my case i think i managed to pinpoint the problem to the kodi skin.

as soon as i reverted to default osmc skin via

sudo systemctl stop mediacenter
mv ~/.kodi ~/.kodi-backup
sudo systemctl start mediacenter

no more crashes, albeit default osmc skin. Once i changed the skin to kodi skin again → crashloop :frowning:

1360

I thought the same thing…even made a new profile and logged in with that but after a few minutes when i was trying to set that profile up i got another crash…so i am not sure it’s skin related.

Downgrading to 344 did the trick

Also if you look at my log dump 1 post up you’ll see that i am loading the estuary skin…and still got a crash

Nice work @gmc, thumbnails on netflix, youtube etc is working again. Even Scummvm is working great, with attached keyboard/mouse.

Only issue i got is that the controller is working in kodi, but not in emulators. Even after setting up the buttons on the emulators-control profile with the working controller. Controller worked in 17.8-327(running on vero4k, not updated due to controller issues), suspecting -334 broke it.

Try downgrading to -345 and then run dist-upgrade:

sudo apt-get install rbp2-mediacenter-osmc=17.8-345
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Welcome to the club of understanding Beta testing!
This is the latest Beta version of Leia

But that is build 17? why not 18?

1369

Well as I wrote Beta testing isn’t that straight and may require some understanding about the inner works.
This is the latest v18 of Kodi that is labeled v17.8 to allow proper upgrade path when official Beta versions for OSMC will be released

When Sam releases the stable build of Leia it will be 18.x.
If the nightly builds were 18.x then they will be higher than the stable build so you would then never receive the update to stable.

1371

I had problems with previous installation (I tried the last 4 builds and it didn’t solve them) so I made a clean one.

Now I’m in the last build and I can’t seem to install MyOSMC apps nor addons (it doesn’t matter whether from zip or repository). I already rebooted a few times but I can’t get it to work.

1372

What error are you getting?

Can you post debug logs.

Here it goes: Log

1383

That helped in my case, thx @joakim_s.

I don’t know why, but after updating to the last build everything is working properly again.

EDIT: The addons work but I can’t get to even navigate around the App Store.
