Brief update, which has less to do with amlogic boards, but with hyperion: I've bought a Rasp Pi 3 B+ (the new 1.4GHz model) and, as expected, Hyperion is working flawslessly (with framegrabber of course).
Can it read HEVC? yes, very well now 
(tried movies with and over 12Mb/s, all OK)
Can it handle 4K? no, of course (but hyperion has problems with 4K anyway)
So, if you are still struggling with hyperion and dont care about 4K, this could be a cheap solution
I've pulled the power chord from the LED stripe, very sad
skupi Thank you very very much for the detailed infos. I'm using the LE hyperion addon but is not working fine, even if i'm already using the amlgrabber in the config file.
I will try to install it with hypercon via SSH
It is in both hyperion and hyperion.ng if you compile it yourself with the right flags enabled.
The binary is included in the hyperion add-on from the LibreELEC repo in kodi which is what I'm testing against for now.
The only issue with hyperion-aml is it doesn't appear to capture the kodi GUI but I haven't looked into it farther than confirming that it grabs video correctly.
Ty for this info. I'm not enough able to compile hyperion myself. Anyway, could you please point me to the correct options to use the hyperion-aml in the config files? I'm using amlgrabber atm with no success. What should i add to the config file to use the hyperion-aml code?
I've already tested the hyperion-aml frame grabber and it captures the video output fine.
Is it in hyperion.ng new version?
If successful this will allow the LePotato to use hyperion, ambilight or boblight with SPI/APA102 devices directly.
But the problem remains how to grab the frames. Efforst should go in that direction
There is also another option, hyperion.ng introduced a new capture mode for the amlogic grabber. It's done directly via GE2D / amvideo and not by amvideocap anymore.
It needs additional kernel patches : Commits · Arakmar/linux-amlogic-le · GitHub
It works just fine for the hardkernel kernel. But I haven't manage to get it working on the Librelec amlogic kernel, it captures just a black screen.
I need to investigate that a bit more when I'll have time.
This is a new hope: where can i find a compiled version of hyperion.ng for wetek hub, please? (no, i'm not able to compile one)
For the new kernel, will it be distributed with next versions of LE?
That's not a piece of harware where i can install libreelec on
I have tried few months ago and there was problem with grabber. Kodi checker was not working correctly and led were all the time on even in menu. I guess I will give hyperion another try during Christmas.
Hi Szymon_Zy, do you have any news on this issue?
Any news on this?
Which is a hardware that supports libreelec and hyperion with 4k and x265 capability? I can't live with my leds
Skupi if you succed i'm interested in the compiled version
Yes but since this thread is about Amlogic + Hyperion and
And unfortunately we don't know how to motivate kernel developers for looking into this issue
we are discussing about a solution. Isn't this thread about solution to a problem?
And yes, the suggested solution involve Hyperion, so we are in topic
Yes Marciano
Ty you fr the tutorial Momo90. That Tutorial doens't use HD or 4K grabber
A grabber linked between my Wetek Hub and the TV set, like this:
which use a UTV007 Grabber inside
So an external grabber is the only choice?
I have this issue too. Hyperion disabled. I'm glad my 905 can read x265 files, but not so happy i've lost my Lightberry use. A backstep imho.
all the reference folder are different. Use the hyperConLE to generate the json of the configuration
Yes, external grabbers are supported via JSON or Proto Server on their specific port
utv007 grabber is supported via v4l2 Grabber
