Cant update openelec box from libreelec 7.0.2

  • Hello,
    I have an OPENELEC box running libreelec 7.0.2.
    when i tried to do a manual update from the program nothing happened.
    when i downloaded the update file (LibreELEC-WeTek_Play.arm-7.0.3.img) and put it in the update folder after a reboot the device hanged on a screen saying decompressing file for a while and then started the program without preforming the update.
    any ideas??
    i also have a RPi 3 which i updated with no problems...
    Thank you!


  • To update an existing installation you need to use the .tar file not the .img file.

    Thank you for your reply are you sure about what you are saying?
    I used the img file to update my RPi, i thing that Libreelec Unlike Openelec uses img files to update.
    also, if you are sure can you point me to the correct file the only reference i found (in the picture) is a img file (the tar file is for updates from openelec and the zip file for a fresh install)
