[8.0.2c] LibreELEC 8.0 builds for KI Plus / KII Pro / KI Pro

**afl1** · November 29, 2016 at 9:04 PM

I stopped development LE 8.0, for the latest version use kszaq's thread.

For fixing IR issue install remote.conf in /storage/.config via ssh session (user/password: root/libreelec)

For Tvheaden42 set following options:
- for every standard Maximum PIDs: 26
- Configuration ->Channel/EPG->EPG Grabber Modules->Over-the-Air: EIT: DVB Grabber->Enabled

Older builds

For installation instructions refer to 7.0 builds, e.g. LibreELEC

Warning!

KI Pro has Android 7.1 (Nougat) and command 'installtointernal' doesn't copy correctly device tree blob for Nougat.

After this command you have to use my workaround #1254 to fix dtb.

For Tvheaden42 set following options:

- for every standard Maximum PIDs: 26

- Configuration ->Channel/EPG->EPG Grabber Modules->Over-the-Air: EIT: DVB Grabber->Enabled

For updating to new version, copy .tar file to /storage/.update/ and reboot box.

Image boots fine on k1 plus but remote doesn't work, going to send over remote.conf from Alexs 003 build. Will test on 28.2. Are the memory leak issues gone?

Thanks very much for the image as well

quitroot · November 30, 2016 at 5:27 AM

afl1 great news.
so the new drivers did the job? Everything working fine?.
Can you update the stable version 7.0.2.009?.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the new development.

Krypton build is awesome.

Testing now (with KII Pro). So far so good.
One advantage, for me personally, is that SD channels play smooth, no stuttering anymore, both with local playing and streaming to other clients.

tnt-rio · November 30, 2016 at 9:00 AM

This sounds great!
I will try it directly when I´m home from work

**afl1** · November 30, 2016 at 9:22 AM

I added in #1 HD audio passthrough version, no analog audio .

This version is build on older kernel from 7.0.2.005 version. Driver adaptation to the latest kernel still in progress.

For SD resolution I switched off hw acceleration by default. There is enough power for SW decoding. SW decoding fixed aspect ratio switching.

The remote.conf for KI_Plus and KII_Pro is included in /etc/remote.conf and it is working. You can check it via ssh. Pls, delete all other remote.conf's.

tonitiger · November 30, 2016 at 8:05 PM

Thank you for your awesome work!

This is the first time 7.90 alpha is starting without "can't access tty" error at my k1 plus.

Krypton looks very nice, and is running very smooth.

The only issue I got is, that I can't access it using ssh or webif (tvheadend).
ssh is working for a few seconds after kodi starts but stops after.

I have this issue using wifi (can't test wired).

aligulhan · November 30, 2016 at 8:08 PM

Noob question, sorry for disturbing...

I have written the image to sd card via "Win32DiskImager", replaced the dtb.image file form my Kii Pro, put the card in the SD slot and starts from nand...

How to have the device start from SD directly?..

Attached contents of SD card.

Sorry for taking time again...

I looks like weak wifi. In box is only small patch antenna (2dBi). Good idea is open box and install external antenna e.g. from old wifi AP.

On bottom side is in the middle on right side small hole. Under this hole is reset switch. Push it with pin during power up for 15 sec.

pawnthep · November 30, 2016 at 11:23 PM

aligulhan

Did you press a hole under the box (and hold until LibreELEC logo shows) to get to recovery mode before booting?

As I recalled with my KII pro, You just have to do this one time.
