8.0.1k (2017-05-14)
Changelog:

• Kodi:

  • backported NFS chunk size patch from Kodi master
  • added a workaround for stalls on FF/RW or chapter seek
  • dropped chapter seek patch from @afl1

Hi All

Can you please advise if there is a way to update kodi from 17.2 to 17.3 via libreelec on my tronsmart media player from inside kodi or via ssh, or if there will be a new image with the newer kodi release. I have checked the site https://yadi.sk/d/srrtn6kpnsKz2/Libr...ON-17/20170523 and have the version for 23/5 but this is still kodi 17.2

Thanking you in advance

I want to learn exactly how to update the tar file with the latest kodi not how to upload it into the update folder and reboot. Thanks though, still good info for those that didn't know.

The renewal of the image. 20170531. Pay attention, i changed the marking of images, now it is the same number used by KODI. In my opinion it is more informative to users. I change the scripts to activate the multi-boot and run system from all USB external media. They added the ability to boot from all the USB connectors. Now you don't need to swap carriers (if several), the system itself should find the right one. To use the new function you want to activate with new multiboot. These scripts can be used with old images.

With which version you want to go ?

First of all, thank you for your support. I think its amazing that you are helping the Transmart community. My request was more general. Not so much related to a specific version. I'd like to learn how to build the tar file that only updates kodi components to the latest stable release. I feel badly, that we need to keep asking you for the latest Kodi build. We should at least try to learn how to do it ourselves. I don't want to rebuild the Linux tree. Only want to be able to update Kodi on my own for now.

The build process LE is not complicated. The main problem that you will need to decide the imposition of the new changes in the source code to the old code. All changes in the source code the entire Assembly LE are interrelated. For example, for the new (fixed) function in KODI you need to change the code of KODI, the kernel code, the code decoder ffmpg, library code, aml, etc. So if you want to start to collect your own version, you need to prepare to study all the code and build process LE.

I would be happy if the number of collectors LE will be expanded. It will quickly update the code and make improvements from each collector.
