LiveTV vs. Recorded & Dolby 5.1

I'm not sure if this is a new issue (i.e. Kodi 17.1) or I just didn't notice this before .. When playing a live show broadcast in DD 5.1 via Kodi it gets passed as PCM Stereo audio. When I go back to the recording of the same show (recorded as part o...

Kodi shows updates available, when there aren’t any

Why is it that some add-ons show up as needing an update, but when I go to click update there are no other versions available from any other repos that I have installed? I even get this error at the repo of the author of an add-on - how do I fix this?

I did the database fix on Kodi:

SYSTEM > File manager > Profile directory > Database.

In here I selected all the files which ends with a “.db” suffix and deleted them one by one and restarted kodi, however the same updates are listed after a few minutes, so that did NOT fix it.

Any ideas?

Kodi 17.1 on Opensuse 42.2 – force display detection

Hello around!

First post here an need some help please.

Got a new used notebook (Thinkpad X230) and installed Opensuse 42.2. On the miniDisplay port I connected a 22` Display. Opensuse recognises the second Monitor and the resolution is on 1920x1080 50hz. KDE Desktop is running also on the second display with no problems.

here comes the problem:
When I launch Kodi 17.1 on the second display it only runs in the resolution of the main notebook display 1366x768 and I couldnt find a way to change the resolution - so most of the 22` display stays black. Monitor output in kodis video settings is set to default - if I change it to hdmi1 either the second monitor display goes black or kodi switches back to the display of the notebook and that one goes black.

I tried to delete everything and set it up again - no change.

It seems to me that kodi doesnt really recognise the 2 monitor.
On my old broken notebook (Edge13) with a older version of Opensuse (11.3) everything worked without problem.

how can I force Kodi to recognise the second display properly?

I´m glad for any help!
