PitViper posted:Openelec seems to be taking their sweet time pushing out v7.0 (Kodi 16) and alpha/beta/RC versions don't seem to be as easily available as I remember them being. Currently I'm just dealing with my Pi media extenders being on a different version than my full HTPC in the living room, and letting them update their own old database until everything gets updated to Jarvis. If you have some computing power laying around and don't want to wait any more, it's not that hard to build your own image from source, takes about 1.5h on my Xeon E5-1620 build server. http://wiki.openelec.tv/index.php/Compile_from_source edit: they seem to have some images up on their build server if you're feeling adventuristic, a lot faster than compiling from source: http://milhouse.openelec.tv/builds/master/. Based on versioning, they might be trying to iron out RPi3 support before a major release. John Capslocke fucked around with this message at 05:17 on Mar 18, 2016 |

I personally just control my Kodi setup with Yatse (android app), but I've heard decent things about this remote: http://www.amazon.com/Aerb-Wireless-Keyboard-Multifunctional-3-Gsensor/dp/B00K768DHY?ie=UTF8&*Version*=1&*entries*=0

nexus6 posted:I have Yatse, it's pretty awesome but I do like not having to look at my remote when pressing buttons to know what I'm doing From what I've read, only the 5 programmable buttons are IR, the rest are all over the RF dongle provided. As for no stop buttons... who knows, one more button to raise costs? You could likely remap another button on the remote for stop if it's that important though.

IUG posted:So I got a letter in the mail about me using more power than the average for my neighborhood. I run my Kodi stuff from my old desktop, which has 5 fans running, and I don't have sleep. I've been thinking of trying to do a NAS setup with a Raspberry Pi doing some of the other work. Basically use the Pi for the SQL server so I can leave that running the whole time with no power usage. Maybe try to get Sickbeard running on that too to manage the NAS. I was also thinking of buying a Drobo for storage, but that's like a grand after all the drives are put in. Someone is running a grow-op in your house, or the meter is reporting wildly wrong numbers. With modern hardware you'd have to be running an insane amount of devices to prompt a letter like that.

Keito posted:Since I still haven't seen a single mention I thought I'd go ahead and ask the (previous?) OpenELEC users here, have all ya'll switched over to LibreELEC yet? Because if not, it's probably about time. This is what happens when you try to make money instead of doing what's best for the community, his Wetek partnership tore the project apart. I switched over to LibreELEC since their first build and haven't looked back, recently upgraded to their Krypton builds and enjoying estuary on my daily driver.

Given how the Android version of Kodi has like no developers now, you might want to hold off on investing in android boxes (if that's your only reason to get one)

codo27 posted:I went and tried out one of those cheapo android boxes from Amazon for $38 CAN. Works right out of the box, Kodi already on it with the addons installed. The thing came with Kitkat installed and also an older version of Kodi, 15.2 (with what looks to be arab writing on the logo when I run it?). I guess these things are pretty generic. It has the same launcher as the one my buddy has. What I'm wondering is if there is some kind of stock android I can get to put on this, hopefully Lollipop, I know Marshmallow for the likes of this would be especially ambitious. There is an icon for the app store on the home screen but I dont really feel confident in entering my google account info on this thing. Given those kind of boxes are from fly by night companies, I'd be surprised if there is anything official support/updates to it. There might be a community ROM or something if you're super lucky but don't expect much.

The Gunslinger posted:If you're willing to use a wireless KB/M in the living room then I'm sure an HTPC is fine but I have to use a remote for others in the household and it needs to be bullet proof. The Shield is a great "everything just works" box and I do zero tech support which is worth the extra cash to me. I'm sure the day will come when its outdated and I regret not being able to upgrade it but until then its pretty cool. You do realize you can use tons of different remotes on PCs right (wifi, IR, whatever floats your boat)? Or use one of the million apps to remotely control Kodi/the entire PC.

bigis posted:Oh cool so I can keep the same config/plugins/etc? I went from OpenELEC to LibreELEC (right up to Kypton alphas) on my rPI2 with zero issue. All libraries/addons/configuration were all there and worked great.

Hadlock posted:There's a root TV folder, and about half are loose in the root folder, and the other half, one episode is in its own folder each. I am honestly surprised that scanner ever worked for something that messy. Time to Sonarr-ify your library.
