Apologies for delay.  Yesterday was Valentine's day.  Dedicated time her to Wife all day.  She was very happy.



SUV ==> E83 - 2006 purchased in 2006 - mostly stored in garage



For testing in the garage live (very cold here) need to:

1 - Power the computer via aux 12VDC power

2 - put a battery charger on the vehicle



I have the carputer connected to the home network via Wireless and using VNC to access it, SSH and SFTP (linux). 

Inside of the vehicle with HU display change to computer screen using switch button on NAV/Radio controls.



Carputer is running LibreElec.



First screen pictures are using stock plugin.

Note simple configuration settings.

On-Board GPS data is fine and accurate here.



Key Out



   

   



Key IN and turned on to position 2.

Updating plugin.



1 - SSH to computer

2 - shut down KODI ==> systemctl stop kodi

3 - SFTP to computer (via Linux)

4 - copy .kodi directory to home linux laptop.

5 - removed plugin and all data associated with plugin

6 - update plugin to beta2 via VNC and configured same as before

7 - changed CIS-Ibus to CD changer emulation and audio to AUX.

8 - looks to be working now...great stuff!!!!

   

   



9 - shutting down Kodi and backing it up to desktop to copy over to computer #2.

10 - driving to do some shopping later on so will test it on the road.



Thank you Harry Berlin!!!  

Thinking my Issues here relating to beta were:

1 - did not remove configuration when removing plugin

2 - configured CIS-Ibus device for CD Changer emulation

3 - configured plugin for CDChanger emulation and audio input to AUX.
