NTFS write support is enabled in kernel (CONFIG_NTFS_RW=y), but Linux often mount filesystem as re ...

Dmesg says as you said:

[   19.793895] NTFS-fs warning (device sda1): parse_options(): Option utf8 is no longer supported, using option nls=utf8. Please use option nls=utf8 in the future and make sure utf8 is compiled either as a module or into the kernel.
[   19.877429] NTFS volume version 3.1.
[   19.877454] NTFS-fs error (device sda1): load_system_files(): Volume is dirty.  Mounting read-only.  Run chkdsk and mount in Windows.

However, if I do this:

OpenELEC:~ # umount /dev/sda1
OpenELEC:~ # ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /storage/tmp

I have write access and absolutely no warnings saying about dirty volume. So I suspect some issue that causes ntfs to be treated as dirty - always? As far as I know, ntfs-3g should throw the same message then trying to mount ntfs volume, but it does not happen and I have write access.

Unfortunately, I have no any Windows PC to mount my disk on it, but I have also tried Android - mount and clean unmount (of course, no write problems on Android).

[edit] My another attempt is to us ntfsfix on my Linux PC:

  1. root@debian:/home/michal2# ntfsfix /dev/sdb1
  2. Mounting volume... OK
  3. Processing of $MFT and $MFTMirr completed successfully.
  4. Checking the alternate boot sector... OK
  5. NTFS volume version is 3.1.
  6. NTFS partition /dev/sdb1 was processed successfully.
Copy code
So now I'm sure my disk is not "dirty" now. Of course (the same as before), it works as read-write on my pc, Android, or Openelec if I mount it by hand (by typing ntfs-3g in console). But every time it's mounted automatically on Openelc, it't treated as "dirty" and mounted in read only mode.

It looks like a bug... can you look at this?

Here is another CEC test release https://transfer.sh/XdjOg/openel ... r22863-g6ec458c.tar

One buffer overflow is fixed which might explain crashes. Also there is one reliability improvement.

Please note that there is a special setting for putting TV off when screensaver runs. Actually, there is a ton of settings. Please test those also:
Settings -> System -> Input devices -> Peripherals -> CEC Adapter

Here is another CEC test image: https://transfer.sh/tL1ne/openel ... r22866-gc728002.tar

This time resume, as in waking up board from sleep with power button, is fixed. Also, this image has fixes in audio passthrough support. Can someone try as much passthrough formats as possible and report here?

Those are test images anyway, because not single bit of HW CEC is documented. A great deal of info was already discovered, just be patient. And yes, some TVs have problems with CEC, but it is hard to tell which fault is it. Do you have option to test on another TV?
