Kodi (Port) won't save any changes made to the default settings.

@buzz Kodi can crash on "Exit" only if you are using "kodi-standalone", this was discussed here more than once. Your script on RetroPie-Setup uses "kodi" and crash on exit won't happen. But I have seen here some tutorials, and also on RetroPie github, a part recommending it to use "kodi-standalone" instead. I change it, but some clever guy changed it back...

The Kodi main packages sources aren't available, because the internal cmake system doesn't have an option to create them, this was also already commented upstream, nobody cared...

The original Kodi source is well know, and ours is here:
https://github.com/PIPplware/xbmc

@rascas thanks for the info.

@buzz Offtopic but. you don't seem to have some sources available like sdl2, etc. Can you please point me to the original source code that you are using for RetroPie ?

[edit] Nevermind, it seems to be just the upstream or from https://github.com/RetroPie/SDL-mirror

BuZz

@rascas yep. Check the scriptmodules as they reference all the source repos.

@renegade2k Try this - set your system up how you want it, then go to the system menu and change your skin to a different one (I presume you're not using Estuary given your problem, so switch to that) and then switch back again.

@BuZz I have made new 17.4 packages for both Stretch and Jessie, which includes some minor optimizations and information missing. I think the guys from the Raspberry Foundation forgot to upload the Jessie ones, so if you want them you can grab them from the pipplware repo, like you used to. Cheers.

BuZz

@rascas thanks for that. Appreciated. I removed your repo I think, maybe I shouldn't have. Hopefully they will update.

@rascas I was going to switch back to using the pipplware bintray repo, so that current users can get 17.4 (and for future updates), but it's currently erroring.

W: Failed to fetch http://dl.bintray.com/pipplware/dists/jessie/main/binary/./Packages  403  Forbidden

W: Failed to fetch http://dl.bintray.com/pipplware/dists/jessie/armv7/binary/./Packages  403  Forbidden

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

@BuZz that bintray account was suspended, because they say that it was causing a lot of traffic and we are not supposed to use it for something like that.
You can use our original repo instead:

http://pipplware.pplware.pt/pipplware/dists/jessie/main/binary/

PS: The armv7 repo is not needed anymore because the packages now contain both armv6 and armv7 binaries, which are automatically chosed according to the user RPi version.

@rascas That's a bit crap - so you were going over the 1TB/month there, or they just didn't like the amount ? I'm sure in the past they didn't include a limit. Will switch to your repo thanks - if you need some space for package hosting I could provide some if bandwidth will be a problem at your current host.
