Hi Guys,
Can you let me know if 8.2.5 for S912 includes the subtitles fix as well?

spinecho , take a look in the folder at MEGA or Google Disk and you'll see that the latest version is from 2018-09-01 and is labeled LibreELEC-S905.arm-8.2.5-Chroma.422.10bit
Thanks
Hi all,
Sorry to be a pain...but what's the latest s905 version?
Thanks
Hi wrxtasy ...using your fantastic builds on a wetek play 2 (s905) and a H96 Pro+ (s912) and both work great.
Thinking about getting a S905x box...does your s905 build support this (with correct dtb.img!)?
Sorry, ignore post above...found it! Post #201....!!!

The LE settings add-on is not integrated into Kodi (only a shortcut in the skin) so it has no ability to natively access SMB share "sources" that you configured in Kodi, e.g. that are visible to the native FileManager. It only supports backup and restore from "local" storage, so removable USB/SD devices or a remote SMB share that has been mounted to a location in the local filesystem. If this is important to you, have a look at the example mount files for smb in /storage/.config/system.d/
thanks chewitt ..one day I might well understand this stuff!!!
Hi,
Running LE wrxtasy latest 905 build from SD card on my Wetek Play 2.
I've setup my shares and I can view and play my media on my windows 7 server over SMB. On the Windows 7 PC all my shares are set to "Full Control".
However, I cannot write to SMB share using the backup/restore settings in the LibreELEC config addon. I cannot restore an already saved backup file either. I have to save backup to local LE (on SD card). I can then use File Manager to copy the local backup to SMB share, but this is time consuming!
I don't understand why I cannot write / read the backup directly from my SMB share?
There is a LE Leia alpha built Here if you want to investigate it.
As CoreElec is a fork of LE, I'm pretty sure a LE backup would work - but I haven't tried.
You could also just take /storage/.kodi/userdata/sources.xml which will contain your SMB shares.
That's great thanks.
Hi guys.
Using kszaq 912 build on my H96 Pro+. All setup to perfection with SMB shares.
I'd like to trial CoreELEC for Leia features - I'm pretty sure my LE backup won't be compatible with CE....is there anyway to backup my SMB shares so I don;t have to go through process of typing them all in again?
Thanks.
A gigabit switch should work.
Got a cheap gigabit switch and everything works perfectly...thanks.
I would use Home plugs, wifi over ethernet. I think you need the devices connected to the internet to be able to scrape the artwork to the library.
Thanks... I have my artwork etc. already scraped. I use Ember.
A gigabit switch should work.
Thanks!
Can no one help with my setup?
Basically want to have a media server with 2 Amlogic boxes conected via ethernet. No internet access required.
What hardware will i need?
Hi, apologies in advance for the really noob questions, but I've never tried what I now want to achieve.
Up to now, I've only owned one S905 box ans all my media is contained on 2 5Tb USB HDDs connected directly to the S905 box. This setup works well.
I've now bought a new 4K TV and an additional S912 box with gigabit ethernet; my plan is to setup the 4K TV and S912 box in another room and have a central NAS/media server (which I have already built from an old PC) to which the 2 5Tb USB HDDs are connected. I can then hopefully stream all my media to the S905 box in one room and the S912 in the other room.
Here's what I've done so far... I've connected the S912 box via a crossover cable to my NAS/media streamer running Windows 7. I've shared the media folders and I've successfully setup SMB shares. I can watch my movies no problem. I've even managed to get Wake on LAN working so when I turn on the S912 box, the PC turns on too!
And this is where my knowledge ends... I've never setup a multi-PC or multi-Amlogic box network! I want to connect both Amlogic boxes to the NAS/media server.
I can't use my BT Wifi router as (long story)it's in a completely separate room to the S905/S912 boxes (and server) and I have no telephone point where the boxes are...even with 5GHz WiFi, the network just is not fast enough to stream and I get stuttering. No worries, I'll use a wired network; so I presume I need another router?
Is it as easy as buying a router and connecting everything up? The router will not be connected to internet.
Do I need a router as everything will be wired (I don't need WiFI connectivity) or will a switch suffice? I've looked on Amazon/eBay and I'm confused what to buy!!
Basically, does anyone have an easy guide to set up a wired network between NAS/media server (which at the moment is running Windows 7) and 2 amlogic boxes?
Many thanks.
Display MoreAfter reading many posts in this forum, in the kodi forum, in the minix forum ... finally I paid attention to @ wrxtasy recomendation and I bought a refurbished Minix U9-H from Amazon.
As I received it I installed its version of libreelec in the internal memory, completely deleting android
The first tests were very positive being able to play 4K HDR remux files from wifi through an FTP sharing.
As I did the tests on a 1080p TV, I detected that the 4K videos played in 1080p there is no autoswitch of the refresh rate of the television. Do you think it is possible to adjust it? (video library is shared with my 4K and 1080 TV)
On the other hand, the bluray ISO files, in spite of choosing directly the main title, are not reproduced. Is there some workaround for its correct reproduction?
And finally a doubt. I use HDMI-CEC for navigation in Kodi. I have seen that if I turn off the TV, the minix is turned off but if I turn it on later, minix will not turn on and if turn on manually, there is a black screen. Is there any way to do it without using the minix command? or what is the correct way?
Thank you.
Um..I presume you have a correct HDMI (2.0 compliant) cable between Minix U9-H & TV and that your TV supports auto-switching?
My cheapo s912 box works like a dream, auto-switches etc...unless there's a physical fault with your Minix U9-H ... you did say it's refurbished...🤔🤔
No. The USB network adapter is not a keyboard.
Thanks chewitt
Apologies if off-topic(ish)
I want to use my old unused htpc as nas/media server for my s905 & s912 boxes overn LAN.
Unfortunately my mobo is old and doesnt seem to support WOL. It does however resume from USB (mouse, keyboard or ir receiver).
With this in mind, if I purchased a USB lan adapter for htpc, will I be able to use resume then (ie wake up PC as WOL)?
Thanks
