Have you set up your download options, in your Kodi addon yet?
I find streaming to be stop/start, so i download, (record), available streams, to my hard drive, which allows me to view them, when i want.
 
@Mick12334 hey man. I install the image again and when I try to install kodi I get the same error. No access to create directory like a thousands times.
I initialize again and again the storage. My storage have to be mount so kodi can be installed?
 
Yes, you need an internal hard drive, or an extenal storage device, for the .kodi folder.
Do you have a faulty hard drive?
If you have an old, spare, one try that, just to test, as long as it's SATA it should work..
 
Its an internal sata drive 320 gb... I bought brand new for my vu solo 2.
I get some errors when I try to initialized it again but after I flash the image again works without errors!
 
Sounds like it might be faulty, or the cables aren't connected fully, or are faulty, or a fault on the motherboard.
Strange that you're using a 320GB hard drive, that's new, as that's quite small, by todays standards.
 
Have you got an old hard drive, that you could try?
Do you have any problems recording television, on the hard drive?
Can you access the hard drive via Filezilla, and copy video files, from your PC, to the hard drive, then view them, on your receiver?
 
Yea the drive working fine. Recording, send file via ftp, or samba, stream recording contect. Everythings works great.
I cant understand where the problem is with kodi. It seems plugin dont have access to create directory for files.
When installation finished with 1000 warning my box crash all the time after a few minutes. I have to flash the image again after that.
I will stop trying. I am tired to install the image again again and then do all the settings from the start.
 
Are you flashing OpenBh 5.0, or OpenBh5.1?
You don't need to re-flash your image, unless loading a new image, or updated version, like 5.0. to 5.1, to remove a plugin, like Kodi, just go into the plugins menu, and press the red button, to uninstall plugins.
If you post your crash log one of the developers can study it, and try to find the problem.
 
1_0_19_2264_438_1_C00000_0_0_0_20220913183302.jpgI flash openbh 5.0 as you told me and I must say that is more stable version than 5.1
At 5.1 some softcams and drivers cant be installed, also when you choose the hertz of your television start to flickering at 50 hertz mode for some reason.
 
Everything looks right.

All I can suggest is that you uninstall the Kodi plugin, by using the red button, when in the plugin menu. Then using Filezilla delete the .kodi folder, and any other kodi folders, including in the tmp folder. Re-boot your receiver and try again.
