So, anyone with any tip how to debug memory usage on kodi to prevent OOM?

vpeter: "doesn't work" isn't much information
<vpeter>
kodi doesn't even start.
<jokke>
what happens instead?
<jokke>
where do you start it from?
<jokke>
ssh?
<vpeter>
console yes. Kodi starts but it stops after few seconds. GUI doesn't display.
<jokke>
console != ssh
<jokke>
so what do you see when hdmi is connected?
<jokke>
before you try running valgrind
<vpeter>
ssh console :)
<jokke>
okay and hdmi shows what now?
<vpeter>
Like valgrind --leak-check=full /usr/lib/kodi/kodi.bin &> /storage/valgrind.log
<vpeter>
No, nothing shown.
<jokke>
ok then try this: DISPLAY=:0 valgrind --leak-check=full /usr/lib/kodi/kodi.bin &> /storage/valgrind.log
<vpeter>
And it is not real device but using Virtual in VMware.
<jokke>
uhm
<jokke>
well
<vpeter>
But that doesn't matter.
<jokke>
ok
<jokke>
yeah shouldn't matter

Seems kodi started but no gui and it stops.
<jokke>
can you start it without valgrind
<jokke>
?
<jokke>
hmm is libreelec maybe running wayland?
<vpeter>
Yes, without valgrind starts just fine.
<vpeter>
No, xorg.
<jokke>
ok
<jokke>
ok try export DISPLAY=0.0
<jokke>
and then running valgrind
<vpeter>
Nope, same problem.
<vpeter>
It starts and soon ends without gui.

vpeter: you're going to have to start xorg first you know
<zhasha>
that would probably be something along the lines of systemctl start xorg.service
<vpeter>
In case you missed: kodi starts fine without valgrind. So everything else is in order.
<zhasha>
I see
<zhasha>
where does kodi exit?
<vpeter>
Looks like kodi works different way when started with and without valgrind.
fraggle_laptop has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
<vpeter>
No idea where.
<zhasha>
kodi spews quite a bit of logging info
<vpeter>
I just see "ERROR: Unable to create GUI. Exiting"
<vpeter>
Ah, let me check log file.
<trn>
Are the Rpi3 vs. Rpi4 images different? Just wondering the proper way to update from a 3 to 4 once I receive it.
<vpeter>
Now I see: no display is found.
<zhasha>
trn: I think you'll have to put the new image file in ~/.update and reboot it on the rpi3, which will install the new image and reboot. The reboot will then fail and the image should then work on the rpi4
<zhasha>
vpeter: the kodi.service unit file says Environment=DISPLAY=:0.0
<trn>
zhasha: Thanks - yes, I was thinking that was what I was going to try first.
<trn>
I'll export everything via the backup first and can reimport it if need be, of course. I'll see once it comes in - I probably have a bit of a wait anyway.

strace with valgrind?
<vpeter>
From what I see kodi crashes with "Process terminating with default action of signal 11 (SIGSEGV): dumping core".

hello
<Mierdi>
How are the s905x2 with LE?
tommy`` has joined #libreelec
<chewitt>
Mierdi .. working quite nicely depending on your media requirements
<chewitt>
some gaps in mainline kernel support, but not large ones
<Mierdi>
Currently, what is the device that you recommend me to use libreelec?
_abbenormal has quit [Quit: Leaving]
<chewitt>
things that work "out of box" are most X96max boxes (with Gigabit), the VIM3, Odroid N2, Ugoos AM6
<Mierdi>
thanks
<Mierdi>
One doubt, I have also seen that he was working with the beelink gt-king (s922). Was there any progress? Out of curiosity more than anything
|Jeroen| has joined #libreelec
<chewitt>
gt-king appears to have a fussy bootloader
<chewitt>
I made some test images but the only users with the box have no clue about attaching a uart cable to capture the u-boot logs
<chewitt>
and Beelink are useless at responding to comments, and I'm not around (at home) for them to ship a sample to
<chewitt>
and i'm supposed to be on vacation, so further investigation is not high on my to-do list

np :)
<chewitt>
I always prefer boards over boxes .. so N2 or VIM3 would be my recommendation
<chewitt>
or taking things in a different direction, an RPi4
<Mierdi>
The truth is that the khadas vim 3 looks very good
<chewitt>
wifi doesn't work (without out-of-tree drivers) and BT appears to have gone MIA in the 5.2 kernel bump
<vpeter>
It is to small :-)
<chewitt>
but apart from that it's a nice board
<chewitt>
it would be nicer if Khadas made a case that doesn't look like a kids transformer toy
<chewitt>
and I'd prefer a full-size heatsink, although it's not essential if LE is the only use
<Mierdi>
One doubt, and this new amlogic is true that supports 8k30? As they say in other forums
<chewitt>
full-size = blades across the full width instead of reserving 50% for the fan
<Mierdi>
by decoding by hardware I say
<chewitt>
there's no mention of 8k support in any official documentation, but it can render some low bitrate 8k sample videos
<chewitt>
it tends to lock-up after playing them .. both on mainline and 4.9 kernels
<chewitt>
i'm overdue a chat with amlogic so i'll ask them
<chewitt>
but it wouldn't surprise me if this is accidental support and thus not tested and not going to be reliable
_abbenormal has joined #libreelec
<chewitt>
and since 8k content is still a long way off.. not something to really worry about
<Mierdi>
ok, is that I had seen it on a fork of libreelec (kernel 4.9). That they had achieved that the beelink reproduced it even with some failures.
<chewitt>
the ability to play 8k content on a 4k panel is not really 8k playback :)
<chewitt>
nobody has 8k panels
<Mierdi>
I already found it really curious, that an amlogic s922 or a311d, for its price moved the 8k.
<chewitt>
none of the capabilities are box dependent .. it's all about the SoC
<chewitt>
s805x, which is a 1080p chip, can render 4k30
<chewitt>
although I haven't found time to test it
<Mierdi>
The truth is that these chipset seem very curious for the price they have. The pity is that it does not have a big scene like other plates like the RPI4
<Mierdi>
and also the little support of the manufacturers and amlogic in linux.
<chewitt>
Amlogic are quite supportive compared to other vendors
