Hello everyone,
just registered here after using kodi for a while, thanks to all of you for your help.
So I’m running a Rpi 3 with Kernel 4.9 arch and the yaourt package kodi-rbp (kodi 17.1
Quite recently I changed my TV signal to a rtmp stream and now use IPTV simple.
This works quite well but some channels have audio sync problems.
I’ve found this issue from last year already and my problem should be fixed by now (thanks popcornmix! I love omxplayer, did so many projects already!!), but it’s obviously not.
So I tried to look for running processes, but found no omxplayer running.
Now I decided to ask here before I continue. I’m not sure what that means – is Kodi not even using omxplayer?
I disabled mmal in the kodi settings (unchecked the use hardware acceleration for mmal box)
Now I see 2 options;
- Kodi doesn’t use omxplayer
- My omxplayer is out of date
When looking for an installed omxplayer, I didn’t find it.
That’s why I suspect my Kodi not use omxplayer at all, although I’m not sure if it’s maybe compiled into kodi (but why would you do that? serious question!)
So now I just installed omxplayer with pacman, opened an RTMP stream directly from the terminal and voilà – the audio is sync!
But when I start kodi again, play the same stream – the problem persists.
That’s where I am stuck – is Kodi using an integrated omxplayer? Is it not using omxplayer at all?
Can I enforce it? Is the package kodi-rbp maybe wrongly compiled, with omxplayer disabled?
How can I fix that?
Thanks for your help in advance!
Cheers!
