00:32 <SpeakerToMeat> Hi all!

00:33 <SpeakerToMeat> Question... I see there's no LE10 for RPi3, because of the graphic drivers.... but in testing I see there's builds for LE11 but not LE10. Does this mean that the graphics drive has a major change in LE11 that makes RPi3 work and this change won't be ported to LE10 (or it takes a lot to port to LE10)? or will LE10 eventually support RPi3 (probably)?

00:34 <SpeakerToMeat> I ask in order to decide wether to wait a little for stable LE10 for the pi, or to jump into the LE11 bandwagon now

00:35 <SpeakerToMeat> And extra question, if I jump into LE11 instead of waiting for le10... is there any way to upgrade an existing system from LE9 to LE11 with the settings app? I think I saw only LE10 listed no LE9, but I wonder if there's anything I can turn on to move to the test stream

04:43 <chewitt_> Bardon We expect Kodi to release 19.4 at some point in Jan, and we will time 10.0.2 with that

04:43 <chewitt> This is a current "greatest hits" of things we are likely to backport https://www.horus.com/~hias/tmp/libreelec/LibreELEC-RPi4.arm-10.0-devel-20211218214422-480810e.tar

04:44 <chewitt> It has deinterlacing and 10/12-bit support for improved HDR

04:46 <chewitt> SpeakerToMeat There is ongoing work to test older RPi hardware with LE11, with the goal of backporting to bring support to RPi3 and 1GB variants of RPi2

04:47 <chewitt> The main issue is user expectations. LE10/11 on RPi3 runs quite well, and we now have deinterlacing, but there will be no 3D or optimised software HEVC decode

04:49 <chewitt> 3D support is possible and will probably be backfilled at some point, but there is no plan to rework the HEVC optimisations

04:49 <chewitt> RPi4 is really the upgrade path for anyone wanting HEVC support, so that's not a huge concern

04:50 <chewitt> deinterlace was really the minimum needed to consider RPi3 support

04:52 <chewitt> so RPi3 support may resume with 10.0.2 .. not fully decided in the team yet, but likely to happen

05:07 <SpeakerToMeat> chewitt, thank you for the explanation

06:05 <MrTAP> glad to hear that about pi3. i still have two of them, though got a pi4 for my main theatre for the hevc support

07:26 <Bardon> chewitt_: OK, thanks :)

08:29 <LEBot> [slack] <rudi> Hi rdo - I run my Cubox-i4Pro to test the kernels (and a small fw bump) - tested last week with 5.15.12. works - though no speed demon :-)

14:28 <SpeakerToMeat> Sigh and last night my system in the RPi3 effed out somehow

14:28 <SpeakerToMeat> I'll try to backup and reinstall it. Lets hope it works out

14:28 <SpeakerToMeat> I might even take the chance to tes out LE11, who knows

23:34 <EtherMan> Hey so... How do I get a CLI in 10.0? It seems my wifi NIC is not detected so it's not like SSH access is an option, but no CLI means I can't even fix the connection.
