Please Kszaq can you see what is appening?
Once again I ask to read the first post and sticky post carefully to understand what I need to look into any playback related issue. I am unable to help if you post a random part of kernel log only.
Hint: post a sample.
kszaq - what did you change to enable 192kHz playback on S905X?
I added a fake 192kHz to supported rates list for S905X audio codec:
linux-amlogic-le/aml_codec_t9015.c at amlogic-3.14.y · kszaq/linux-amlogic-le · GitHub
The codec is used for analog output and it does not support 192kHz but the change allows to use 192kHz for HDMI output.
I'm sorry but I don't know how kernel audio driver works and I tinker only with the easiest part. I cannot help with resolving your issues.
What I can tell is Amlogic audio driver is very, very messy and works only in some configurations. It needs fixing or a complete rewrite.
There's still some hope that Kwiboo will find some time to work on driver or someone else with knowledge picks this up...
I tried to raise the issue with the devs on GitHub, but I got my wrist slapped for raising user issues!
Actually they were right, Pull Requests are to discuss development, not to raise issues. As far as I know there is no dev with deep audio driver knowledge except for Kwiboo and we have to wait for him.
There will be no official builds for "Generic" S905 boxes. There are plans to add support to LE master branch but only for reference, not to be provided officially.
What I can provide is an update channel but I don't have time to amend the script that is generating json. I would have to learn Python first. 
Can you tell when your git is up-to-date and which tag I will need for building (64bit) '8.0.1c + fix'?
Or provide a pointer to the changeset of the multichannel PCM audio fix relative to '8.0.1c' tag?
Thanks a lot.
PS: when I built from '8.0.1c' tag (I assume without fix) yesterday, I encountered kernel build issue:
'hdmitx_device' not declared
(in linux-2921a14/drivers/amlogic/hdmi/hdmi_tx_20/hdmi_tx_video.c line 623)
I replaced 'hdmitx_device' with 'hdev' 2 times as follows:
if (hdmi_output_rgb) {
param->color = COLORSPACE_RGB444;
hdev->para->cs =
hdev->cur_video_param->color;
}
I have re-tagged 8.0.1c yesterday. Nonetheless you should not have this build issue, this is patched properly: Reapply: drivers/amlogic/hdmi: set video color parameter as well with… · kszaq/linux-amlogic-le@f7cc366 · GitHub
I think you should ask your box manufacturer for an upgrade, my builds are not compatible with dual-boot from Venz.
I have a MXQ all black box with a S805 and a V3-1 board. Trying update the firmware so to run Kodi 17 but have been told by a few people that installing LibreELEC 8.0 will not work with the V3 board and may brick the box. Any input will be greatly appreciated before attempting this. Thank you in advance.
If you upgrade to the same variant - i.e. MXQ, HD18Q or m201d - you shouldn't brick your device. As advised above by Kostaman, you can always try running from an SD card first or if you already do, try a different card for LE 8. I have to admit that nowadays I test S805 builds very briefly as I consider them very mature.
Since upgrading to 8.0.1a from 8.0g I've been having menu framerate problems @ 1080p, very stuttery navigation, however video playback is perfect. Worked fine since 7.0 when I started using this build, 8.0 was fine.
Actually the only change that could affect this was between 8.0.0b and 8.0.0g. You can try to bump your GPU speed by echo 4 > /sys/class/mpgpu/cur_freq.
Interestingly, my AVR shows that the input signal is 192kHz. I thought the S905X was limited to 96kHz.
Some versions ago I introduces changes that might have enabled 192kHz PCM on S905X. 
Is the "new" version C posted in the usual download area? I don't see any mention on the release notes, or download page about two different C versions, so figured I'd ask whether its already up, or if I should wait a day or two for it to be uploaded?
I pulled the old version "C" with non-working multichannel audio, new one is at usual place.
I'm rebuilding 8.0.1c now to fix multichannel PCM audio.
I'm having some DVB-T issues with versions 8.0.1b and 8.0.1c (8.0.1a is fine). Video is very choppy and showing as skipping a lot of frames. I've uploaded a sample that I've just quickly recorded as an example @ Dropbox - Escape to the Country-BBC ONE HD2017-04-0415-00-1.tsShows recorded in version 8.0.1b (I assume c is the same but I haven't tried) playback fine on 8.0.1a.
Thank you for the sample. It looks like Amlogic fixes one thing and breaks another in their kernel updates. 
I will try to fix this if I can.
2. Its a lot slower than running android OS and kodi on top of it. Lag in menus and delays navigating etc. Is this because its running from my SD card rather than being the internal OS?
Yes, a fast SD card is recommended. The slower the card, the bigger the lags.
Guys, please try 8.0.1c build to see if things improved regarding analog audio.
OP updated with 8.0.1c build. Please note that I now have much less time to test my builds, I welcome some feedback. 
The VC-1 patch will you add your next build?
Yes, but please note that it fixes only some issues with VC-1 playback, not all of them.
BTW, it is possible to flash u-boot besides the TWRP to allow SD/USB boot or these two occupy the same partition?
U-boot is in separate partition but I don't provide any. This is the task for the manufacturer. I used to provide u-boot (bootloader) for S805 boxes and it was a mistake.
BTW2, I have flashed the lastest LE7 from here: http://freaktab.com/forum/tv-player-supp...for-s905-x
You should ask the maintainter for an update.

It's not possible due to lots of Android/TWRP/recovery versions available. If you already have LE installed, you should be able to run reboot update or reboot recovery over SSH to boot from SD card or USB drive. You should also be able to upgrade in-place if using one of my LE 7 builds.
What does Armbian have to do with my builds? I would understand that kind of post if it was something usable for LE, otherwise you only confuse users suggesting that 4.9 kernel is available. It is not. Amlogic provided sources is a work-in-progress, mainline kernel is a work-in-progress. It's not anything usable for us yet.
Hi,Im using 8.0.0d and when looking under libreleec settings i cant find an update. Is the update function in libreelec settings not working?
These are community builds, you have to update manually.
You need to wait for April 1st to be over.
