Too bad, however, that bt2020 isn't triggered..It is when I boot android from internal memory but not in libreelec:/
Why is that?
It's not implemented in Kodi, only in Android framework provided by Amlogic to box vendors.
x265 get to mush frame skips and slush on MM Kernel.
Back to 8.0.1l Nougat Kernel
I've read the exact opposite after a switch to Frankenstein-Nougat kernel. Looks like you can't please everyone...
7.0.3.012l uploaded: subtitles security patch backport applied & back to MM kernel.
In case anyone is still using this... I uploaded 7.0.3.3d with subtitles security patch backported for Jarvis.
I'm afraid that at the moment there is nobody with knowledge+equipment who would be able to fix this.
8.0.2a build in OP. Apart from Kodi 17.3, it includes some rendering and decoding improvements from my S905 builds. Please enjoy responsibly. 
8.0.2a update in OP.
8.0.2a update in OP.
8.0.1l contains Kodi 17.2 dev that is almost the same as 17.3 and is not vulnerable.
The security patch is included. I wonder where did you get the warning from?
Is there anyway to power down the S905 or at least the USB HDD so it's not spinning 24/7?
Power down the USB port.
Anything so as to not have the HDD spinning 24/7.
Use hd-idle
DTS sound from YouTube? Your TV must perform some kind of DTS encoding down the way.
Make sure that it can pass DD/DTS from other HDMI sources e.g. laptop, not TV apps or USB media.
Full Nougat kernel will be used in my builds only after I have time to patch it and after people confirm that it doesn't have issues with 4K. First builds will be available no earlier than next month, now I have other responsibilities to handle.
Toslink can only give you stereo, DD and DTS. You can't send THD, DTS HR/MA, Atmos nor 5.1 PCM over Toslink. Also make sure that your TV can pass the bitstream from HDMI to Toslink (mine cannot).
Marshmallow kernel has issues with HDR videos and S905X. On the other hand there are less issues with display and playback than on my Frankenstein MM-Nougat kernel so for now I will keep using MM kernel for my builds. If I have some time, I may try building releases with "full" Nougat kernel (no timeframe for this, it's done when it's done).
The threat using LE is very low. The patch is included in 8.0.1l (and of course 8.0.1l-mm) build.
kszaq, is the subtitles security fix included in your latest version of LE?
What fix?
You did not rename the device tree to dtb.img
I would not install a build with Samba PR yet, it is still undergoing testing/development. When it's ready you will see it in my builds.
