Thanks for that understand where you are coming from now - just updated the box and it works perfectly.

Thanks for the prompt and very helpful responses.

. The tuner worked only on 1 of the 2 ports - the left front one. And I then tried mounting a USB thumb drive into the left back port - without any success.

Bottom line is that 1 of the 2 USB ports does not seem to function, not to mount a USB drive, nor as a port for USB TV tuner. When I insert a USB drive, the drive light flashes but the drive is not mounted

I can not help you but have similar results on my Mecool M8S Pro Plus with stock Android 7.1.1 LibreElec was installed along with the files wrxtasy provided. I have no problems using the front USB port but get nothing using the rear usb port.

I just flashed 8.1.8 and there is 8.1.9 available

Where is 8.1.9?

Is there any way to disable V-Sync?

kszaq, I wouldn't call a 20% speed gain 'small'.

Just out of curiosity, was there anything worthwhile in my debug logs regarding my startup issue?

Is there ever any benefit of flashing newer manufacturer supplied firmwares for TV boxes, then coming back to LE? Do they fix any issues that LE can't? I notice the KI Pro gets the occasional update supplied over @ Mecool KI PRO Hybrid Android TV Box with Amlogic S905D SoC, DVB-T2 & DVB-S2 Tuners Sells for $80. The most recent is date September 5th and I think my box came with one dated some time in Aprril or May.

If you install libreelec to sd or usb, you can compare the two

I was meaning more do the manufacturer updates fix anything in the partitions that the LE install doesn't touch, the under the hood type stuff. Like in the bootloader, etc.

I was wondering the same thing.

Hi.

Anybody know how to disable NTP for setting the time? A car killed our internet distribution point... 10 days no internet. And without internet, NTP don't work.. and without NTP the box starts at 0:00 and with wrong date.. no big problem you think? It is a Problem.. cause due to this wrong date/time, my epg from TVHeadend Plugin don't work..

Thx guys..

If you have a windows machine in your network, I think you can use it as a NTP server

Edit:

First install NTP service on windows machine

You can set NTP server IP(windows machine) in network settings(Kodi)
