Thanks I'll follow it.

There is 2 issues I think :

• audio config not restored on boot (after manual setting, I get audio in games)
• kodi audio not working at all (even after setting audio output device in RB)

I tried this config, but there is still no sound on HDMI:

• cat /boot/config.txt
  hdmi_drive=2
  dtparam=audio=on
  config_hdmi_boost=0
  hdmi_force_hotplug=1

After reboot, Kodi is able to play videos without sound.
If I go to settings/audio, menu stucks for 20/30secs, then goes timeout.
There I cannot select audio output (with is empty !).

Any idea ?

Some infos:

• recalbox.conf:
  audio.device=auto
  audio.volume=100
  audio.bgmusic=1
• /boot/config:
  <empty>
• cat /proc/asound/cards:
  0 [OdroidXU4 ]: Odroid-XU4 - Odroid-XU4
  Odroid-XU4
• grep audio /etc/retroarch.cfg | grep -v "#":
  <empty>
• lsmod | grep snd
  <empty>
• cat /etc/modules.conf
  uinput
  usbhid
• amixer
  <empty>

Looks like no driver is loaded ...

I confirm library scanning is working back.
Some magic have been done in kernel/filesystem ...
Thanks.

Looks better with RB6.1 (I have to test more when I'll have time to update all libraries)
Since there is no Kodi update, was it an issue with kernel ? or some libraries ?

However, I cannot play any file since audio is not working

Hi,

I updated to RB6.1 and found new issues :

• system sound is at 0% after start.
• kodi cannot play videos (they are freezing)
• no sound when playing music
• default sound card seems to be analog on kodi, while I'm using an AVR.

BR,
Alex.

Hi, no help so far.
Someone on discord reproduced the issue on Odroid-Xu4.

I posted a new thread here : https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/18866/odroid-xu4-kodi-with-rb6-1

Last step I tried to remove all modules from Kodi (menuconfig), except alsa but even without mysql modules, I get a segfault on Kodi start.

Since there is no help here, I'm looking for help on recalbox's github and buildroot.

Hi,

How how to rebuild kodi in buildroot ?
I mean I tried make kodi-rebuild, even make kodi-dirclean; make kodi rebuild but none gave a binary with make menuconfig changes

BR,
Alex.

Can't go higher ... no dev can give me some tips ?
That's a shame ...
