Amlogic S905: Hyperion won't run (not found)

1st Official Post

    I recently bought a MXQ Pro 4K Amlogic S905 mediaplayer to replace my current RPi with Openelec. However, I used to have a nice amblight setup (Hyperion) which refuses to run om my Amlogic box. I am not sure if the problem is caused by a general problem, Libreelec or Hyperion.

    I installed Hyperion as described on their website. Everything went fine and no faults were shown during the installation. All necessary files are present and a run command is added to autostart.sh:

    /storage/hyperion/bin/hyperiond.sh /storage/config/hyperion.config.json > /storage/logfiles/hyperion.log 2>&1 &

    This however immediately gives the following fault in the Hyperion log file:

    /storage/hyperion/bin/hyperiond.sh: line 2: /storage/hyperion/bin/hyperiond: not found

    The file is available and has the correct rights as shown in the picture below:

    I am running Libreelec from USB.

    Can you guys help me troubleshoot this problem?

    Remove your manual hyperion installation and install directly from libreelec repository add-ons (is availble in services).
    I've installed like that and is running normally

    There's a Hyperion add-on in our add-on repo that's pre-compiled and tested to work on LibreELEC, but that would require you to be on an 8.0/Krypton build and most of the S905 things in circulation appear to be 7.0 based - some builders provide add-ons, others don't.
