Did you guys changed the CPU governor to Ondemand? Previously i had it to "performance" and after the update i had to change it back to performance since even with Kodi running a video file the clock rate would oscillate from 700Mhz to 1Ghz (my OC setting) constantly (according to xbian-stats)...

Yes, default governor was changed from Performance to OnDemand on the way between 4.4 to 4.9
You can set it to whatever you want in file /etc/default/xbian-module-init-tools

Quote:A couple off annoying things happened just after i've rebooted the unit, after the kernel update. My USB WNIC (TP-LINK TL-WN822N) no longer blinks the status LED... it's now a solid ON state, plus i'm unable to connect it to any AP using the N standard anymore :/ ... Did you change anything on the drivers ? Because this happened immediately after the update. Never had any other issues before and i changed nothing on my WLAN and router/etc...
Here is a paste of DMESG ( Dmesg paste )

Seems your TL-WN822N has rtl8192cu chipset (mine has Atheros AR7010+AR9287). This device is using now rtl8192c driver instead of legacy 8192cu. Unfortunately the mainstream driver still does not work very well. To return to 8192cu driver, you have to blacklist rtl8192cu, for example by adding the blacklist line to file /etc/modprobe.d/8192cu.conf:

Code:

options 8192cu rtw_power_mgnt=0 rtw_enusbss=0 rtw_led_enable=0
blacklist rtl8192cu

Quote:So far Kodi 17.0 works great, but there a feature that is different (at least for me) and i would like to know what you guys think of it:
I use the "play from here" option (to play all the files in sequence inside a directory) a lot and in the previous versions of Kodi the transition from the EOF to the next file was immediate... now it takes about 20 to 30 seconds between files and i cant find out why . Any ideas on how to fix this or if it's fixable or a new thing?

Absolutely no idea, never using this. Probably better place to ask is kodi forum.

Btw, did yo already had a look into kodi's log?

No
