Video Calibration not workin

Video Calibration not working properly, when change positions nothing changes on screen.
Subtitles position not working either.

Selecting a custom build does not always bring up file selection dialog

In the host installer, if you select a custom build, then click Cancel, and then click use custom build again, the browse dialog doesn't show up unless you untick it and reclick it again. It seems the untick action from clicking cancel is not properly triggering the slot notifier that the checkbox has changed.

Wanted to do apt-get updrage but dpkg returns error code 1 and the result looks like this:

Translating

So all, I love your project. Stoked to stick it on my Pi.

I run another open source project and I thought I'd give you a better way to translate your software.

transifex.com is FREE for open source projects and it would allow anyone to hop in and start translating.

I also have a great grunt file that could help you pull down those translations at any time. The only issue would be ensuring you're using a compatible format: http://docs.transifex.com/developer/formats/.

If you're interested, I'd love to help make that happen for you all. I could probably set the sucker up in a day. ;)

Desktop launcher doesn't work for KDE

I'm using OpenSuse with KDE and sudo can't ask for pass without command line.
Can we use
/usr/bin/xdg-su -c "/path/to/program"
instead?

resolv.conf is overwritten on reboot

I'm booting from NFS, and I've noticed that DNS doesn't resolve. I'm using hostnames in my advancedsettings.xml, this broke my NFS media sources. That, and apt updates weren't working, and other stuff where DNS is needed. I manually updated resolv.conf, but after every reboot, it would reset to one line:

"nameserver , "

This happened even after installing and manually configuring net-tools, resolvconf, and dhclient, and disabling connman.

I tracked the problem to a bug in /usr/bin/start-network.

 if grep -q nfsroot /proc/cmdline
 then
         nameservers=$(dmesg | grep nameserver | awk {'print $3'} | cut -d '=' -f 2)
         >/etc/resolv.conf
         for ns in $nameservers
         do
                 echo "nameserver ${ns}" > /etc/resolv.conf
         done
         exec /usr/sbin/connmand -n -I eth0 --nodnsproxy --config=/etc/connman.conf
 ...

That handling is the source of the problem. The grep | awk is bad, since my dmesg returns:
[ 4.241134] nameserver0=192.168.1.1
[ 4.246665] , nameserver1=192.168.1.1

I'm guessing these come from a duplicate sent by my DHCP service with the "ip=dhcp" in cmdline.txt. The comma one outright breaks resolv.conf. The below is a cleaner way to do it that works more cleanly with dhclient or resolvconf, (and probably NetworkManager if that's ever implemented) and allows manual changes such as domain and search etries to persist:

if grep -q nfsroot /proc/cmdline; then
        nameservers=( $(dmesg | grep nameserver | awk '{print $NF}' | cut -d '=' -f2 | sort -u) )
        for ns in ${nameservers[@]}; do
                if ! grep "$ns" /etc/resolv.conf; then
                        echo "nameserver ${ns}" >> /etc/resolv.conf
                fi
        done
        exec /usr/sbin/connmand -n -I eth0 --nodnsproxy --config=/etc/connman.conf
else
        exec /usr/sbin/connmand -n --config=/etc/connman.conf
fi

Announce SSH and SFTP services via Zeroconf/Avahi by default

The following files enable SSH and SFTP to be announced via Zeroconf/Avahi, so that one can log in over ssh from OS X Terminal without having to manually search for the IP address. Please install these files by default when SSH/SFTP services are enabled on the machine.

The /etc/avahi/services/ssh.service file is:

<?xml version="1.0" standalone='no'?>
<!DOCTYPE service-group SYSTEM "avahi-service.dtd">
<service-group>
  <name replace-wildcards="yes">%h</name>

TV Remote Doesn't work via CEC

I have seen this issue now since Raspbmc (it happened first a few months before the latest version).

I have it setup so I can use my TV remote via HDMI to control OSMC. If I have freshly started OSMC it works fine and as expected. However if I turn the TV off (leaving OSMC on) and return to it several hours later. Using the remote has no effect. The TV status light blinks when I press buttons but nothing happens. It is almost like OSMC is asleep.

The only way to wake it is using my phone and the XBMC remote app. This then brightens the screen and I can then use the TV remote again. Sometime the remote doesn't start working until I have started playing a video.

Update
Recently even after playing a video it no longer accepts input from the TV remote.

TUN/TAP support

Please add tun tap kernel modules. Thanks!

Unable to access with SSH

Hi,

I just installed the Alpha 2 and wanted to add my external harddrive to my pi, but it is not auto loading my external drive .. so I wanted to add it with SSH but here I am not able to log in with pi/rasbperry, I get the error access denied

I also tried with the alternative on port 4200, here I was able to log in but could not use the sudo command

Hope you have an idea why this is happening.

Thanks

`nm.uid.enable` not working?

Hi folks,

After digging thru internet I've found that in order to remove the mac portion of the hostname, I needed to turn off a flag in the .xbmc/userdata/addon_data/script.raspbmc.settings/settings.xml file.

Currently it's saying..

<setting id="nm.uid.enable" value="false" />

.. but I was still getting the mac portion being added.

Then I went ahead an commented the relevant lines ìn /scripts/nm_util.py .. so now it looks like this:

            if DHCP:
                settings.set_auto()
                #if  params['nm.uid.enable'] == "true":
                #    mac_list = settings.mac_address.split(":")
                #    uid =  socket.gethostname()+mac_list[4].lower()+mac_list[5].lower()
                #else:
                uid = socket.gethostname()

..and it works like a charm, now

• hostname -A reports the short hostname
• the dhcp server list the device using its short hostname

but I'm guessing this will only work till next update. isn't?

So, do I'm missing anything? or is this a bug?

Installer not working

The installer for osmc on Linux does not let you select what version to install so you cant install the system. Also there are many 503 errors on your website as well. Is there a direct link to download disk images? (Mainlly the latest build for the raspberry pi not pi2)

lirc_rpi.ko not working on Raspberry Pi 2 Model B

I am trying to use LIRC with OSMC on the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B in order to control the media center via infrared remote control. However, the kernel module is not loaded.

Following http://openelec.tv/forum/124-raspberry-pi/75336-rpi2-lirc-help, I changed /boot/config.txt to include dtoverlay=lirc-rpi-overlay and rebooted, but the lirc_rpi.ko does not get loaded.

It would be nice if lirc_rpi would be set up (and readily working) by default, since probably many people want to attach an infrared receiver to their media center Raspberry Pi.

Missing commands in Alpha 1

Here is a list of a few fairly essential commands missing in Alpha 1.

Please add the following commands: (package name)

ping (inetutils-ping)
traceroute (inetutils-traceroute)
nslookup (dnsutils)
less (less)
killall (psmisc)
iptables (iptables)
curl (curl)

maybe:

vi (vim)

Also please add /sbin to the path for ifconfig, route etc..

OSMC installer does not match visual styles of GNOME 3 if launched as root

Please add stk1160 support

Sabcoll: "Hey Sam - i got a huge huge huge question:

I want to use ambilight via USB Grabbing (Easycap STK1160).Hyperion already works well if i play videos via OSMC.
BUT: i need Frame scaling activated in the Drivers to reduce the load on the usb port.
There is a "custom" Driver already available with Frame Scaling Support for the Fushicai...

But i would like to have the Driver for STK1160 with Hardware Frame Scaling activated...
is there any way you can include such a Driver into OSMC please?

http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/media/usb/stk1160/stk1160-v4l.c

This is the important file. I think it should be possible to reduce the capture Resolution to reduce the load.
So i would Need to adjust the Resolution and make a new kernel module and overwrite the existing Driver!
Is that possible?
"

Let me support this request in the name of rpi day ambilight community :)

OSMC Installer does not launch from GNOME 3 Applications menu

CC @malkavi
CC @labsin

My environment is Ubuntu 14.10 with GNOME 3 as the desktop. If I install the OSMC installer via apt and try run it from the applications menu, nothing appears.

Running /usr/bin/osmcinstaller as the normal user or root launches the application, so there is no issue there.

Looking at /usr/share/applications/osmcinstaller.desktop, it seems OK.

Broadcomm Bluetooth Adapters RPi2

Out of the box I had problems with a broadcomm usb bluetooth adapter.

Turns out I needed to install the libbluetooth3 package separately, as it wasn't included in the bluez install.

I am still working through some of the service start issues, but I figured you might want to include that package in the next release.

Wordpress PHP

At the moment, we are using the Polylang (https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/polylang). Wordpress plugin to provide translations. There are some shortfalls, and I'm not versed enough in PHP to get it done. I'd also rather work on the more pressing parts of the project.

The developer guide is at http://polylang.wordpress.com/documentation/documentation-for-developers/

Here are some issues with the current implementation:

• As it stands, Wordpress will redirect the user to the English (en.) subdomain, but it should redirect to the chosen or auto detected locale, if no locale is specified. For example: going to http://osmc.tv/about should take a Danish user to http://da.osmc.tv/om, not http://en.osmc.tv/about. The functionality to resolve what page is translated to what is already there, as in the footer, there are URLs to the translated pages. What we need to do is:1) check the incoming request. If we have no subdomain, i.e. en; da etc; then check the locale. Redirect to the translated page, the URL of which we can obtain from the footer.
• http://en.osmc.tv/feed/
  and
  http://da.osmc.tv/feed/
  only shows posts from the specific language which is fine. But if you exclude a category in the url, then the rss feed gives you the posts from all the languages.

It would be great for us to adopt Polylang to our project needs

WiFi not working

Version : OSMC ALPHA3
Hardware : Raspberry Pi B with rtl8188eu

There is no WiFi connection...

Post-install setup doesn't create locales

When installing, I chose "English" (the only option given in the Alpha 1 installer). When I then logged in via SSH after installation, I got a warning that my specified locale (en_GB.UTF-8) was not available and the shell was falling back on the plain C locale instead. (Because OSMC's /etc/ssh/sshd_config file has the line AcceptEnv LANG LC_*, SSH asks for the same locale on the OSMC device that I have on the computer I’m running SSH from.) I had to manually run dpkg-reconfigure locales on the OSMC installation to generate that locale.

So, the installer will need to insure that a locale is generated to match the language chosen during installation. If only one generic English option is to be offered in the installer, you’ll have to generate all of the en_**.UTF-8 locales to cover US/UK/etc. users.

apt-get upgrade/dist-upgrade still not fixed in Alpha 2

No Packages for Fedora 21

Rpm package

Is someone preparing this? (I'm the one that asked in twitter for it)

I have been playing with rpmbuild in OpenSuse to make a rpm package. First thing I have learned is that you need the source in a tarball, then I have a script to make it. Second thing, the spec file. I have write one (I'm not sure if it's totally correct), and I have create the rpm package.
The problem is that the .desktop file isn't correct for opensuse (¿?), I can't launch it using it, maybe for the sudo before the command (it doesn't prompt for password). From command line It works.
If someone want it, I can upload the file. It's not ready for a commit to the project and I don't have much time, but I will try to finish it.

Dynamic alert box sizing

I tried to open the YouTube app for the first time and sign in. It wanted to give me a code to enter at YouTube.Com/activate, but the code was cut off the bottom of the alert box. Please can you make the boxes dynamically sized or have a scroll bar?
Love your work, thanks!

OSMC Installer: removable drive detection failed on Gentoo Linux

Hi, I tried to install osmc on my Raspberry Pi from a Gentoo Linux Host.

I know this distribution is not (yet ;)) supported by the installer but I used the debian package and everything works as expected until the installer ask me to select my SDCard device.

It was not listed under the device list but all my other drives was listed. After trying to plug/unplug several time the card reader, I notice that the list of device was filtered in this file installer/host/qt_host_installer/io_linux.cpp#L46

My card reader was mapped to /dev/sda (I use LVM to manage my system drives).

I don't know if this is only my setup that is leading to this behavior or if other user could have this.

But I think, it would be better to read /sys/block/*/removable to check if device is removable.

In my system :

$> grep 1 /sys/block/*/removable | xargs dirname
/sys/block/sda

Requirements for `make`ing host installer

I ❤️ this project. As a longtime RaspBMC user I'm very interested in this new development.

I built the OSX installer yesterday and found that I needed to install qmake (brew install qt).
I also had a difficult time finding out how to get the build going at all. Maybe the documentation is kept somewhere else? Anyway I would like to suggest to add a short description about how all this stuff ties together and how-to make the OS Installer but most of all what pre-requisites are required to be able to succesfully build something on a host system. Perhaps point to the documentation as now it is not obvious where to find it.
Obviously I was able to deduce most from reading the code. But I do not read all languages fluently and some pointers would really help.
Thanks again for such a great project.

Slow WiFi (r8188eu)

I can't get more than 50 KB/sec and I think something's wrong with the driver because I've tried with a windows machine and it's working fine.

I wanted to try compiling another version but I can't because there's a problem with the headers:

Wrong colors of Windows 7 installer if theme is changed

Not much to say, the screenshot is quite explanatory :) Not really a bug, but colors are quite difficult to read. Should either force both foreground and backgrond or none or them.

`/etc/networks` uses 169.254.0.0

Just booted Alpha 2 succesfully.
ssh login works fine initially. But after a couple of minutes I got a Write failed: Broken pipe. While looking around, this caught my eye:

osmc@osmc:~$ cat /etc/networks
default     0.0.0.0
loopback    127.0.0.0
link-local  169.254.0.0   # this bothers me

And I was wondering: because my local LAN uses 10.0.1.0/24 could it be that networking might be(come) iffy due to that last line?

GNU GPLv2

In the QT host installer you are required to accept the GNU GPL before installing.

The GNU GPL does not require you to accept the licence to use the software (Clauses 0 and 5). I would suggest changing this to something simple informing the user of their modification/redistribution rights as the GPL places no restrictions on use of the software.

RPM distros have wrong dependencies in spec file

Not usb_max_current but max_usb_current

As in topic.
In config.txt, the options should be max_usb_current, but is usb_max_current.

Static IP via OS X installer

Setting static IP (and rest) does not work for me via OS X installer? How do I set static IP?
Creating /etc/network/interfaces with appropriate config apparently does nothing.

Host installer: Generate iconset in make_host_osx.sh

The icon set should not be added as a binary, as this could cause issues if we need to update the images. Instead it should be generated at build time. The assets (images, needed) should be in qt_host_installer/ directory.

If you could provide specific information about the assets needed, I will ping Simon.

Add support to fetch Wiki pages from remote URL

CC @krmarien

See 83a42b2. I have added some basic support but it is not full implemented yet. Rather than give everyone access to Wiki, I would prefer to have them submit PRs to a GitHub repo and Wiki pages are fetched from their.

What works:

-- go to http://osmc.tv/help/wiki. It offers the Main Page and Edit this page options. It is also fetching remote URLs

What needs finishing:

• Edit this page is not giving the correct URL for some pages. Try http://osmc.tv/help/wiki/console/. The edit this page should link to https://github.com/samnazarko/osmc-wiki/blog/master/pages/console (doesn't exist in Git yet) but instead it links to https://github.com/samnazarko/osmc-wiki/blog/master/pages//help/wiki/console
• If you try http://osmc.tv/help/wiki/sometestpage (and the page doesn't exist in wordpress), it doesn't try load and it and displays the 404 instead.

Wifi not working...

Installer : http://osmc.tv/download/linux/
Version : OSMC ALPHA2
Hardware : Raspberry Pi B+ with rtl8192cu

Followed the prompts and entered the SSID and key
On boot there is no IP address (would help if there was a OpenELEC style interface for networking)

I'm setting up a wired LAN to investigate and collect logs.
Any tips would be appreciated.. :)

Missing 16x9/DialogOK.xml
