I found actual .img file on this site and used the qemu convert command on a linux mint. On a vmware workstation that boots with a short glimpse on the LibreELEC Logo and then black screen....

May be the generic-grafics are not able to work on a virtual machine ?
Any more explanation from the experts how LibreELEC can be tested on which virtual ?

In esxi some people can passthrough a graphics card to a VM, and the you could install LE

Here a list of sucessfull graphics cards working in esxi  

Got a 7.0.2 image working by running the installer with QEMU onto a VMDK.

Problem is with Audio. No sound at all. The audio output device is greyed out, The VMWARE default sound driver isn't recognized.

The solution is to manually edit the .vmx configuration and make sure the sound settings are as follows:

sound.present = "TRUE"
sound.filename = "-1"
sound.autodetect = "TRUE"
sound.virtualdev = "hdaudio"

sb16 and es1371 virtual devices don't seem to work.

Last Virtual build provided is LibreELEC-Virtual.x86_64-8.0.2.ova. Will there be further builds?

Virtual was rolled into Generic starting with 8.2.0 so you can use libreelec-generic.x86_64-8.2.5.ova

Hmm.. Can't find the link from downloads – LibreELEC section.

Ok, how in the next time I could find out the link to the latest build without asking you?

Is there a possibility to enable hardware acceleration for video plack? In VMWare workstation settings it is enabled, but it says "You must update Tools to enable 3D acceleration in this virtual machine"

Thanks
