HiFiBerry Digi+ S/PDIF problems

[tinpanalley]

I simply can't get OpenElec to recognise my HiFiBerry Digi+ card installed on my rpi2. I tried following some instructions to edit some conf files, but that didn't work and HiFiBerry don't post their own openElec install anymore.
Does anyone know how I can get my optical audio card working? I need OpenElec because OSMC doesn't seelm to want to read ISO files.

Thank you!!

In openelec 6 (and all recent kernels) you need to activate your device in /flash/config.txt and reboot.

I don't know if you have this working yet or not, but I recently also went through this, using an RPi 1 B+ and a HiFiBerry Digi+ with OpenElec 5.95.5.

I followed the instructions on the HiFiBerry site: https://www.hifiberry.com/guides/configu...-overlays/

I used Putty to SSH into the RPi to do the remounting of the flash file, I edited the file using WinSCP however. I find WinSCP easier for most operations when SSHing into a device because it's more like using a Windows device. However I'm not sure how to use that remount command in WinSCP.

Anyway, I also couldn't get the RPi to recognize the Digi+, but I think that instead of rebooting a power cycle is what is needed to enable it. It seems that after giving up for a few days and then reconnecting the RPi to my GF's TV, the Digi+ was recognized and is functioning after changing the appropriate settings in Kodi.
