OdroidC2 with aptX

1st Official Post

    Hi,

    It has been a while I have been playing with Kodi.

    However I am about to flash LibreELEC 8.2.5 image for my OdroidC2.

    Yet I like to find out which aptX BT modules will be supported, so I can pair my OnePlus 5 phone to LibreELEC.

    Also is there a way to add route(s), eg add to /etc/network/if-up.d " route add -net 192.168.20.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.10.1 "

    Preferably through SSH, but if I am not mistaken in LibreELEC it is no longer "allowed" to access through SSH, thus suppose there is a way to add routes through the GUI.

    cheers

    SSH works fine, but 99% of the filesystem is readonly so you cannot edit things in /etc and if-up.d doesn't exist because we use connmand as the connection manager. You can use "route add" via /storage/.config/autostart.sh which is run at boot time (before networking starts so you need to background and sleep the additions).

    No idea about BT modules, but you should consider that C2 is currently stuck on a shitty 3.14 bsp kernel so BT support is well out of date.

    thanks for your reply it is appreciated!

    But - ouch that is indeed ancient " Linux LibreELEC 3.14.29 #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Apr 13 11:07:56 BST 2018 aarch64 GNU/Linux ".

    this kernel has been set to End of Life long time already, would be great if this can be upgraded to >= 4.14 kernel perhaps with help of armbian builds this can be done somehow?

    Anyway will try my luck to see how things go with csr8510 chipset later this week

    cheers

    I'm already running an LE image with K18 and a Linux 4.17.3 kernel on S905+ devices but the codebase needs to hit some milestones before we invite public testing and feedback. The core OS is solid but audio/video are still in a proof-of-concept state. LE is orchestrating the current activity on Amlogic mainline audio/video things and one of our extended team also contributes to Armbian; so once things are useable Armbian will see some updates too.

    superb, OK so it will be matter of time kernel upgrade will be realised - let's say once kodi18 hit final as that is TBA stil ;-),

    Will report back once BT dongle is connected to my odroid, will be able to give it a go tomorrow earliest.

    cheers!

    lsusb (verbose in this case) below, so seems to be detected ...

    Now need to find out if it can broadcast, so I do not have to pair my phone thru Kodi.

    That seems to be doable RTFMing: Pulseaudio [LibreELEC.wiki] - so it will work other way around as written in my initial post,

    Though not sure yet if it is ( will be ) doing aptX though
