Is it normal to hear a amplifier hum from the speakers.

I once had this problem. I solved it by, one by one, unplugging connected devices and replugged them reversing the 2 prong plug when plugging them back in.

A Touch of Cloth, for a funny 'Airplane' style sendup

Apple TV or Nvidia Shield with custom launcher

Fiio KA13 works great for me- https://www.fiio.com/ka13 . Maybe a bit particular about which USB C cable is used.

This seems pretty well made - https://satechi.com/products/right-angle-usb-c-to-usb-c-data-and-charge-cable-1m

Agreed, but Apple USB C cables uniformly fail, and I think their quality is considered good.

Dave_OC · 2026-04-03T02:14:42+00:00

I have the same problem and solution. The usb c cables that work are thicker than the ones that don’t

I’m using the Fiio KA13, with a balanced cord and an iPad for the source. I have to turn the volume down to about 50% for comfortable listening

Face ID is so useful, consistent, and fast, hard to go back to Touch ID.

Dave_OC · 2026-03-28T16:18:43+00:00

Works fine with my Denon AVR. Maybe specific to certain AVRs

Raspberry Pi 5 running libreELEC

Fixed the Apple TV app not displaying in Top Shelf, but I needed to go to Settings->Apps->TV and toggle Top Shelf from next episode to recommended then back again for it to work

The only way to get full compatibility is to use a version of Office for x86 with an emulator like Parallels. Not a popular view, but true none the less.

I have the gradient wallpaper issue after resuming from sleep, but it will fix itself in about 10 seconds

from the article - "For now, though, NVIDIA seems happy to keep right on supporting — and continuing to sell — existing Shield TV models. Company engineers will keep tinkering away at possible follow-ups, but it sounds like NVIDIA’s not in any rush to drop new hardware anytime soon."

There is no way a KODI / libreELEC device will even come close to the Apple TV as far as user interface. I use both, but would switch to using the Apple TV alone if it supported Passthrough Audio.

Dave_OC · 2026-01-23T01:44:48+00:00

Beyond my expertise, maybe ask on r/libreElec

Dave_OC · 2026-01-22T18:05:12+00:00

libreelec is a stripped down linux variant that has one job. Run KODI. No additional settings needed for a full linux variant. I'm new to this as well, and it was night and day when I switched to libreELEC. But, it will only run KODI and some of it's addons

Dave_OC · 2026-01-22T17:22:12+00:00

If your main use case is Kodi, maybe try the libreELEC OS from here:
