WETEK Play 2 and build 10.85 Box

kevin501 · July 15, 2022 at 6:52 PM

I have been able to install the LibreELEC-AMLGX.arm-10.85.0-box.img on my WETEK Play 2 box. It works great but I am not able to shut it down. Using the kodi menu any power option does a reboot. Using SSH and sending an init 0 works the same as an init 6. I currently pull the power plug when I want to shut it off. What am I not doing. After install I did not use the reset as it came right up. I f I reinstall 9.0.2 everything works fine. Thanks Kevin.

I haven't noticed this myself, but a) I'm not using the WP2 for much, b) I've erased emmc to boot the box using the upstream u-boot image on SD card (the wetek-play2.img.gz file in my test share) which may do power things differently.

Code

cd /storage
wget https://chewitt.libreelec.tv/testing/LibreELEC-AMLGX.arm-10.85.0-wetek-play2.img.gz
emmctool w LibreELEC-AMLGX.arm-10.85.0-wetek-play2.img.gz

If you're feeling brave, that ^ should result in a WP2 box that boots from internal storage instead of SD card

btw, doing some testing and I confirm that when you shutdown the box, it restarts itself again after a few seconds. I'll ping kernel maintainers on the topic but I'm not sure it will be resolved (or resolved quickly).

Thanks for taking the time to look at this. Yes it is strange that it acts this way. I thought maybe during creation and testing the shutdown was changed to reboot to save time while massaging the code. And yes I think it is a kernel as a init 0 does the same as a kodi shutdown. Thanks again and I will continue to just Unplug it.
