23.976Hz is not selectable in Amlogic devices. Kernel sees when you play 23.976 fps video and switches to a fractional frame rate automatically.

Hi there, couple of questions.
Under LE settings, what is the UPDATE CHANNEL for?

I clicked LE 7.0 and now I have a blank settings box in LE, any idea how to fix?

Thanks

Update Channel is a custom URL you can set to get updates from. It's not ready yet for my builds, there's nothing you have to fix.

Re AP6212/AP6212A detection, I have noticed that hciattach can somehow get Broadcom chip version. I will check if this also works for AMPAK when I have some time.

Edit: disabling AM_VECM solves the issue on boot, but most hdr material will still be unwatchable. kszaq says on github that it's needed for OSD, but I haven't run into any issues with it disabled in libreelec-7.0

Disabling it indeed disables HDR but it also causes GUI and subtitles corruption at 1080p24hz.

These non-branded boxes are a lottery and you'd be really lucky if you find a firmware that fits. I don't have any advice on this, some time ago I tried to find a firmware for one box and not even the firmware that was sent by seller fit...

Docker has not been fixed yet in my 7.0 builds. In 7.90 Linuxserver.io repo is available. You have to install addons for arm and not aarch64.

i installed 7.0.3.2 and it works fine on my MXQ AllBlack.
Only on Prob i have, it does not Power on with Remote.
I have two of these, one Power up, one does not. :s

Any ideas or Solutions about this?

Power down is no Problem.

copy the remote.conf from the one to the other does not fix it.

This is u-boot issue - this means that bootloader from Android firmware that you have (or used to have) does not support powering on with remote.

I keep getting ignored, so away with my old posts, and bluntness/brevity in.

Any way to disable HDR completely (e.g SSH commands)?

You are not being ignored, simply nobody knows how to do this.

Having same bluetooth issue because I also have an AP6212, I have found some sources regarding bcmdhdn and support of ap6212 on lichee.

Could this be helpfull ?

(I'm really not into drivers, so I'm probably totally out of the subject)

AP6212 is supported here, I need to figure out a workaround to make AP6212a's BT firmware load.

If you disabled HW decoding and use software decoding - the decoding is bad, the picture is there but with big delay and some artifacts....can this be fix somehow ?

It seems that this HW is not poerful enough to play MPEG2 4:2:2 content, sorry.

You have to find Android firmware from manufacturer that works. Or try to boot SD image of LE. If the reset button doesn't work, try other ways listed in S905 thread - I know that this is S805 buy the ways to install are pretty much the same.

Additional 2 question :
a) Beelink MINI MXIII II is connected to 8 years old Full HD Sony LCD. Adjust display refresh rate is enable by default and I have problems with 1080i/1080p/4K material. My Tv doesn't show the whole picture if Adjust display refresh rate is enable, see attachment. Is this normal ?

Please set resolution in Android to 1080p 60Hz or 50Hz and try again. Is it OK now?

Quote from humaxboy

b) i want to know if my beelink is capable of playing 4:2:2 files. From Samples - Official Kodi Wiki (see MPEG2 4:2:2@High 1080i/29.970 35Mbps ) there is an example file and picture is green pixellated mess. Is there a way to play it properly ? Sound is ok.

Amlogic can't HW decode MPEG2 4:2:2. Only software decoding is available.

There you go: gxbb_p200_1G_mxq_pro_4k.dtb

If this works, it's OK to use with 7.0.3.010 - 012c and all 7.90 beta versions.

Lirc is not used for internal IR receiver. I use amremote in my builds in order to be able to use remote.conf files from Android. Lirc can't do this.

Yes, I'm backporting commits to my Jarivs builds. If everything with the changes applied to beta3 is OK, I will upload 7.0.3.012d.

Beta3 uploaded with some minor improvements.

Beta3 build uploaded with minor improvements.

"fixed non-working factory remote buttons by reverting an upstream patch"

This seems to have broken my remote (?)
In "beta1", the number buttons worked - as in, I could use them to type letters (the good old "Nokia" way), or cycle through the letters to type a number (example: a->b->c->2->A->B->C). Now it'll only type numbers. Been using the right .dtb all along. Any help and/or fix would be much appreciated.

You can create an udev rule with the entry I reverted: Revert "eventlircd: Fix missing buttons with WP2 remote" · kszaq/LibreELEC.tv@5ea53ba · GitHub

The fix is now available in 7.90.beta3 for S905(X).

pesh I'm using the latest publicly available NAND driver in my builds. You have to hope that Amlogic releases NAND driver update that will fix your issue.

SEIKT You have AP6212a chip. Unfortunately there is no BT firmware for that chip in Amlogic sources yet. The other issue is that I don't know how to differentiate AP6212 from AP6212a in systemd.
