I have LibreELEC 8 running on this box, but I have a PVR issue. I am using tvheadend using a satellite dish pointed at Astra 28.2.
On most HD channels, the stream is fine for an instant and then I see horizontal streaking on the image. I am seeing this on BBC HD channels but not on Channel 4.
This is not happening on other S905x boxes or on RPi (all running LibreELEC 8).
I am only seeing this on this S905W box ..
Any ideas?
My box is the S905 MXQ NEXBOX Pro 4 k
I've installed LibreElec successful on a USB boot and it works 100% without any issues. I've install it on the internal memory successfully (twice) as instructed in the HOW TO. My problem is if i boot if via the internal memory the screen is just black, not even a boot logo can be seen but as soon as i put the USB boot back it works 100%. Why do i have a black screen on the internal memory but it works flawlessly on the USB. Anyone else having this issue ? I cant even ping it or SSH to it but on USB i can ping it and SSH to it.
Thanks

I have exactly this problem also on this build. Box says MXQ Pro ... works perfectly from sd card, but not internal.. just a blank screen, no errors or messages .. nothing. It doesn't seem to boot from internal at all ... when i put the card in and plug in the power it boots fine.
The card cost me more than the box (crazy), so I would like to get it back as it is my only spare.
Any ideas ????
HiLIRC is not used with the Amlogic ('amremote' is used instead).
You can however register a second remote, see this HowTo : thread-5154.html
Thank you for the pointer. Hmmm ... if I find some spare hours I might try and get this working. I guess I was asking a lot to simply drop in my ever growing lircd.conf.
Hello,
I recently bought an android box with this chipset in it. The android build was awful (slow, buggy, Kodi PVR was just not useable, etc). As I mainly wanted to run Kodi, this forum has saved the item from going in the bin. This build has really shown what this hardware is capable of. The android build would give the impression that this box is not useable as a daily STB.
I am already running multiple RPi boxes with LibreELEC on other TVs around the house, so I am somewhat familiar with how that works.
One thing that I like about it is that I can use irrecord to map any IR remote control and add all these maps to lircd.conf. This is great as all my remotes will work on all of my TVs.
On this build I do not see where the lircd.conf file goes .. or how the lircd is configured. The remote that came with the box works (for the main part), but I would really like to map some of my other remotes also. Ideally I would just drop in the lircd.conf file that I have already on 4 other RPis. Finally I would like to keep the remote that came with the box working also.
Can someone point me in the right direction please?
(I am running the 7.0.3 j build)
