  • I have a TRMK1 which is an M8c variant which uses the rtl8188 WiFi chip,
    I've not tried the latest image you have released but the one before everything worked for me
    WiFi
    Bluetooth
    Etherley
    Remote.
    If it's not to much issue could you possibly add a,b,c to the end of your releases please. I've suffered full hdd failure today so I now have no backups or dates of releases from you

  • Which version did you try for TRMK1? I have the m8c and was wondering which image to try.

  • Is this for minix xh8 ? Running from sd card? Which build are you using ? I'm still using the rc4 build tried to update some time ago but it gave me errors

    Yes a minix x8h running from sd card. Using the latest s8x2 build. Working fine. Not tested wifi tho as I always use lan

    The m8 one. I originally updated from openelec using the .tar from an early release of Demetris's.
    Then when he switched to the S8X2 images I had to put a file called .nocompat along side the .tar.
    I have not installed Demetris's latest release yet but as of the release before everything was working nicely.
    It must also be noted as I said before my box is a M8c variant called the TRMK1 which were manufactured for a forum I used about 3 years ago

    All the best

    Thanks for the info, the box I have is actually my friends, its still on android, so I am wary of installing libreelec on it, I tried loading the IMG file so I could dual boot and not risk bricking it but box just gets stuck at boot logo. Its the s812_m8c 1g by Tronfy.

    I have not added much S812 devices for now as i am busy fixing those wifi issues, i will soon.
    In other news new S8X2 images are being uploaded after this i will have to split code and build per device and i really don't want to go that route as will add me another couple of hours compiling and that is the reason i dont want to release with another name as i would have to start from scratch and i will avoid that as long as it takes me.
