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

  • General question, how reliable is Libreelec KI Pro? Not sure whether to opt for that or a Kaby Lake ITX system. Would rather the Mecool/Videologic box if it's stable. Will be using the TV tuners a lot.

  • Hi afl1

    You will no longer collect firmware for s905?

    On firmware from kzaq since version 8.1.0 on power-up, tvheadend shows satellite channels (dvb-s2) for 10-15 seconds and the picture freezes. Then there is no signal. If you reboot K1 plus, then all the channels work fine.

    On your firmware this was not.

    Thank you!

    There is no issue with tvheadend and LE 8.2 versions . I've been verified version 8.1.5 on my KI Plus and there are no channel freezes for DVB-S2.

    Try clean installation on new SD card.

    I stopped building LE 8.x as internal dvb driver is included in kszaq builds and there is no reason to build parallel versions.

    P.S.:

    For serious reporting provide debug logs from kodi and tvheadend.

  • afl1

    I did a clean install on the sdcard, did not help.

    I made a log. Please see, as it becomes time.

    Thank you

    It looks like issue in tvheadend.

    Try to use this version:

    service.tvheadend42-8.2.112e.zip

    Also you can try to use my testing version corresponding to LE 8.1.5

    LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.2-devel-201708221034-g8c1f5c4-I.img.gz

    This version is built for KI Pro, you have to replace dtb.img with nougat dtb: Index of /s905/8.2/device_trees/

    In this version are some fixes for amlogic rendering and controlling amlogic codec by kodi.

  • ZA.

    Mam problemy z OSCam w przeglądarce (extjs.html #) w zakładce "CA" Mam czerwone okrąg z wykrzyknikiem. W tej kompilacji: "LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.0-8.0.2c-I", "service.tvheadend42-8.1.114" było w porządku

    Has installed on sdcard your firmware LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.2-devel-201708221034-g8c1f5c4-I.img.rz and service.tvheadend42-8.2.112e.zip. Tuned tvneadend, all transoders. Sat channels all show off excellent. Turned out K1 plus. After 20 minutes, turned on and tvneadend no signal. I reboot K1 plus. And all the channels show perfectly. I scribbled two log files. One after switching on. The second after the reboot.

    Thanks for your work!

    Pls try clean installation from scratch with fresh DVB-S scan.

    I tried more times power off/on on my box without any issue.

  • afl1

    I did a clean install on the sd card. And I did a new scan of dvb-s

    But it did not help.


    Then I began to experiment with firmware versions. I managed to find out that this is not a bug tvheadend.

    This is bug firmware.

    I think that the error started with the firmware LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.0-8.0.2c-I

    Tomorrow I can say more precisely

  • Hi AFL1,

    Could you please update your git, I get the following error when I compile 8.0.2b or 8.0.2c from git.

    Thanks !

    Also, when I deactivate this patch I get the following error (in 8.0.2b) :

    Code

    Hi

    I installed that build on my KI Pro (out of curiosity mainly) and have found a couple of times after coming back to the box the screen is as the screenshot below, rebooting fixes it. I'm on a regular non-HDR 1080p TV. Logs attached.

  • Hi afl1

    I conducted an experiment.

    I made a clean installation of the firmware LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.2-devel-201708221034-g8c1f5c4-I.img.gz on sdcard.

    Installed service.tvheadend42-8.2.112e and scanned from scratch dvb-s.

    The problem after switching on K1 plus did not dare, it shows 10-15 seconds and the picture freezes. If you reboot K1, then all the channels show excellent.

    Then I started looking for a working firmware. Previously, there was no such problem.

    Through the libreelec \ update folder, I installed the firmware LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.2-8.1.4.tar (8.1.3, 8.1.2, 8.1.1, 8.1.0 and LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.0-8.0 .2c- I.tar) on all firmware after power on K1 plus the picture freezes. And only after installing the firmware LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.0-8.0.2b-I.tar all the freezes have passed.

    On firmware LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.0-8.0.2b-I.tar K1 plus works perfectly.

    I think the bug started with the version of the firmware LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.0-8.0.2c-I and still is from the firmware to the firmware. But he was noticed only by me.

    How to fix it I do not know ;(

  • In version 8.0.2c kszaq has included internal dvb driver in his builds. There was little change, he replaced my tuner driver (r848) with cracycat69 media_build version. For testing I prepared version with old tuner driver.

    LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.2-devel-201708241138-g8c1f5c4-I.img.gz

    In this version submitting command lsmod you can can see r848a module.

  • Hi AFL1,

    Could you please update your git, I get the following error when I compile 8.0.2b or 8.0.2c from git.

    Thanks !

    Also, when I deactivate this patch I get the following error (in 8.0.2b) :

    Code
    /home/nabil/LIBREELEC/AFL/8.0.2b/LibreELEC.tv/build.LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.0-devel/qca9377-aml-boundary-LNX.LEH.4.2.2.2-4.5.20.034/CORE/HDD/src/wlan_hdd_cfg80211.c:15723:6: error: unknown field 'testmode_cmd' specified in initializer
          .testmode_cmd = wlan_hdd_cfg80211_testmode,
          ^

    I found also that media_build doesn't compile (at least in 8.0.2b) because of patches that can't be applied. Could you please check that ? I think this is the same for 8.0.2c.
