Hi Mike,Yes, I have heard that Mint 18+ has incorporated rEFInd into their OS and all seems to be well for UEFI dual boots with Windows 10 on mid-dated hardware (not older than P4 and not newer than early I7 I think this means) Not so much for Ubu LTS without rEFInd, but UEFI issues are beginning to be resolved for Linux in general.

Many thanks for your reply, firenice03. Yes... I take your point, though in 'Something Else' I had already installed the LL bootloader to /dev/sda2 where the Windows EFI partition was (rather than /dev/sda as used in the Legacy install) - I think this was the correct thing to do? Yes, GPT disk used to allow UEFI/Secure boot install. Though I appear unable to dualboot LL3.2 UEFItestbuild with Win10, I am able to dualboot Linux Mint 18 with Win10 with UEFI/Secure boot enabled.
As I'm installing in CSM mode (Legacy)
@m654321 Mike.. Which partition are you putting the boot installer?In the "Something else" its the lower portion of the screen you pick where the bootloader/grub is to go..I believe it needs to go into a GPT UEFI formatted partition; if I recall a few hundred mb in size... or in the same where windows is located.. I can try to check mine, but it may be a few...
Hello Mike, These are the settings for displayKodi should be full screen automatically on a tv.Regarding Samsung, my cousin uses a Samsung smart tv, he has Kodi on his mobile phone, he connects the phone to his home wifi, then casts the screen directly to the smart tv, it plays full screen HD movies.
Hello,have you tried adding the files into Kodi and send to the tv ?
I ran into a Grub error while testing - majority of the time it was due to internet connection loss. On my Kangaroo its wifi only but the default driver would disconnect, I since run a usb hardwire ethernet port with no issues.Another thing to be aware of disable Fast Boot in Win10 (its in the control panel settings).*Update Link to disable *http://www.howtogeek.com/243901/the-pros-and-cons-of-windows-10s-fast-startup-mode/
