Spread the love

The developers behind the Libre Embedded Linux Entertainment Center have released version 10.0.2. LibreELEC was created after a large number of developers left OpenELEC due to disagreement and started their own business. This Linux distribution is based on Kodi and can turn a computer into a full-fledged htpc. It can also be installed on a Raspberry Pi or a separate media player. In LibreELEC version 10, the switch to Kodi version 19.1 has been made and that has quite a few snags. An automatic upgrade from version 9.2 to 10 is therefore not possible and it is also recommended to make a backup first. The release notes for this release can be found below.

LibreELEC (Matrix) 10.0.2

The final version of LibreELEC 10.0.2 has been released, bringing Kodi (Matrix) v19.4 to our users. Users of LibreELEC 10 Beta or RC1 get an automatic update to the final version. LibreELEC 9.2 setups will not be automatically updated, you will need to manually update

We can offer stable and good working versions for Allwinner, Generic and Rockchip devices. The RPi4 is also in good shape but the codebase is rather new, so it is not polished yet (keep reading for details). New at the 10.0.2 release is the support for the RPi2 and RPi3,

CHANGES SINCE 10.0.1

update:

  • update Kodi to 19.4
  • several minor package updates
  • support for RPi2, RPi3
  • RPi deinterlacing support
  • RPi CM4 NVME support
  • RPi4 support for 10/12bit video output

fixes:

  • RPi fixes blank screen at some setups
  • RPi multiple decdoder fixes

RASPBERRY PI 0-1

There are no Raspberry Pi 0-1 releases for LE10.0. The RPi graphic drivers are still in progress of a complete rewrite, additionally the current developement is focused on RPi 4.

  • Support for RPi0-1 is dropped, its unlikely to return (lacing horsepower for the new graphic stack)

RASPBERRY PI 2-3

As new addition we support RPi2 and RPi3 at LE10. Please keep in mind this is still brand new and not widely tested. Likely bugs are still possible. Overall, the current version is properly useable.

Note that GPU accelerated b65 decoding is no longer available in LE 10 and future versions. If this is important to you stay at LE 9.2.

Working (RPi4)

  • HDMI output up to 4kp60
  • b64 and b65 HW decoding
  • NEW: HDR output (HDR10 and HLG)
  • NEW: HD audio pass-through (Dolby TrueHD, DTS HD)
  • NEW: deinterlacing support (PVR/DVD)
  • NEW: 10/12bit video output

Known Issues:

  • 50/60fps b64 HW decoding may need force_turbo=1 or core_freq_min=500 in config.txt to avoid AV-sync-issues/skipping
  • Kodi runs in 4096×2160 instead of 3840×2160 on 4k TVs after fresh installation
    Solution: Change resolution in system settings (1920×1080 50 or 60Hz plus setting up whitelist and enabling “Adjust display refresh rate” in player settings is recommended)
  • Hyperion Add-on no longer works
    No solution for now, Hyperion doesn’t support the new graphics driver stack yet
  • The additional DVB drivers are not present.
