[8.90.1] CoreELEC for S905/S912 devices

Quote from adamg

The version of widevine in that script is old and will not work. This version however does MEGA

GDPR-2 :

how did you get the updated version of libwidevine?

where can I download it, in case there is an updated version?

GDPR-2 any chance of a updated 912 build? I’ve tried building it muyself but get loads of errors.

Thanks

Matt

The Coolest Thanks for your answer

Unfortunately, your tip does not work, 576cvbs was already registered.
Maybe somebody can test with a S905x box if AV (Composite) works with CE.

Reminds me the Commodore logo from the 80s.

Blakey's idea is more fresh.

I'm very excited to see the rebellion continue!

I wonder if there will be any chance that my two request can be implemented into this build?

1) Create Favorite from main screen

I found this link that seems to be the key to when they removed this feature:

move favourites context menus to favourites module · xbmc/[email protected] · GitHub

2) Improve guide number layout

I'm surprised that this hasn't been an issue for more users (I use 5 digit channels i.e.206.1).

I will definitely be happy without either of these though if that means that we keep getting quality builds like we have.

Keep up the great work!!!

I know I can download it from the link adamg provided. I already have downloaded the file and Netfliux works ok.

But I want to know where I can download future versions of libwidevine, maybe something will change in the future,

so a new version will be required.

Edit:

I see, that the Amazon VOD addon comes with inputstreamhelper (as you mentioned before), so I started again from scratch to test this.

I removed /storage/.kodi/cdm, installed Amazon VOD and Netflix-addon it. Then I configured and invoked Netflix.

-> Netflix movie does not play, no directory /storage/.kodi/cdm was created.

Then I found the solution:

To create the cdm-dir with libwidevine files I have to login with an Amazon VOD-account first.

inputstreamhelper-addon only works with Amazon VOS-addon, not with Netflix only.

That was my misinterpretation.

I have only a Netflix-account, no Amazon VOD-account. So I borrowed a Amazon-VOD account from my daughter

and voila - the 1.9GB Chrom image was downloaded and libwidevine was extracted.

The usage of wget getwidevine.sh, which is referenced in many forums delivered only an

outdated libwidevine for ARM-boxes.

Hope that helps other users...

Do you mean from master? If it compiles for me, I'd be happy to send you a link for it.

My living room TV has a broken HDMI board and we have to use it with an HDMI-to-CVBS converter. Would love to see the new version work, but it still is showing a black screen. Strange thing is the TV shows the resolution change when adjusting the mode using the syntax The Coolest provided.

It seems so close!

What repo did you use for Amazon?

I haven't even tried to get Netflix or Amazon on my S905x box yet, but will soon. I looked into the script referenced in many forums and saw that it downloads an Arm7h package of chromium-widevine. Googling found an updated version on the ArchLinux website and instructions for Netflix.

Hope this helps; I'll be testing this sometime soon when I have free time.
