[Solved] Uefi 32 bit Z3735f mini pc with LibreELEC? Bay Trail, Cherry Trail

envagyok · August 12, 2016 at 10:37 AM

Is any news about it?
I heard in Linux already supported the Z3735f, with audio,lan driver, and the uefi 32 bit bios too..
It will supported via libreelec?

We haven't had much luck some 6-10 months ago in adapting to the 32bit BIOS boot, so that ship kind of sailed by. Sorry.

Sure, but LibreELEC != Ubuntu.

We do welcome PR's for succesful boots on such hardware, as well as some proper hardware to test this on.

Try my build for tronsmart IZ37 (works with UEFI32)
Sendspace.com Mobile File

(works only with internal memory NAND/eMMC - during installation process keep connect over USB only USB installation drive)

- for audio sync please check advancedgui i think there was some delay, try with 0
- yes i know i will try add
- livetv hd channels (1440*1080 50i) deinterlacing jerky (choose only VAAPI method )
you can also try switch driver to modesettins on some devices work much better than intel
--> to do that create file xorg.conf in /storage/.config (or config folder exposed over SMB) ant please put this

Code

Section "Device"
Identifier  "Device0"
Driver      "modesetting"
EndSection

about audio yes - there is patch only for HDMI sound with downmix to stereo or multichannel PCM
a saw some patches for baytrail - maybe in some free time i will check.

Maybe can you setup audio output to 7.1 multichannel output, and dd,dts,dolby TrueHD,and DTS hd software decode to 7.1?
Like raspberry pi does.

**piotrasd** · September 21, 2016 at 1:17 PM

There is 7.1 but only to PCM, i never tested becuase i dont have AVR - multichannel PCM only works throuh HDMI.
