QUOTE(justnits @ Oct 9 2015, 10:32 AM) does it have any thermal adhesive tape on it like those old school stick on heatsink on motherboard chipset? did some search and got that too. now running without the heat sinkbut on a side note, i'm not sure if heatsink is required for rpi, i've read somewhere mentioning that the rpi could withstand quite a decent degree of heat.  I tried to install kodi with the command: sudo apt-get kodi the menus all are working but when trying to run the video, I only hear sound, no video image. any idea how to solve this? |

QUOTE(tph84 @ Oct 19 2015, 12:14 PM) Yes, it should be quite straight forward, it run only Kodi when boot up and you can start to play music and movie from your harddisk, can even support youtube plugin. But I think the youtube plugin is not very user friendly. any idea how to set the time?mine keep on showing wrong time  |
