LibreELEC 9.2 comes nine months after the launch of the LibreELEC 9 series, which is based on the latest Kodi 18 “Leia” open-source and cross-platform media centre, and introduces various improvements to Raspberry Pi 4 Model B devices, such as a firmware updater, a new option for enabling 4K output, and the Linux 4.19 kernel with some extra optimizations. The LibreELEC developers claim that the 1080p (FHD) playback on Raspberry Pi 4 is almost on-par with that of Raspberry Pi 3 Model B and Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ models, but they promise to improve the 4K video capabilities as soon as possible thanks to the work done by the Raspberry Pi Foundation developers. Also, they promise HDR and 3D video, as well as HBR audio capabilities too in a future update.
