7.0.3 to 8.0.0 not working on chromebox

been trying to go from 7.0.3 to 8.0.0 for a few days now and it's not working for me. I have tried downloading the .tar and putting it in the update folder and tried updating using the Libreelec settings and still no good. I made a 1 minute video to show what I'm doing and see if I'm doing anything wrong.

chromebox.kodi17.mp4 - Google Drive

anyone????

is 5 days enough time to wait for help?

i finally got 8.0.0 to work but at first videos would play but the sound is very distorted and now no videos are playing at all. when i try to play a video kodi would restart and when i try to downgrade to 7.0.3 no menus would show up and im unable to select anything

Hello, I am still reading the many threads that deal with upgrading/updating LE from 7.0.3 to any of the LE 8 version, when I came upon this thread, The way I found to fix this was to downgrade using OE 7.X.X then switching back to LE 7.0.2, Now this is an old thread, but hope it help at least one person from having a mini stroke like I did LOL.

after I finally got back to 7.0.3 I stayed there until 8.0.1 came out and I still had the same problem. so I went back to 7.0.3 and I'm not going to upgrade again
