It is also possible that the WiFi chip is not supported.

There are no "new" drivers for 3.10 kernel.

kostaman Thank you for pointing this out. Posts have been moderated. I also don't like that super-long quotes, it's particularly disturbing when you browse using Tapatalk...

Choppy, blocky playback of this sample, please check: h.264 1080i
In Android with minix xbmc all is fine, so it's not a hardware decoder bug.

I can confirm the issues but you're not entirely correct about this not being hardware decoder bug: HW decoding is not only VPU but also closed-source microcode and kernel driver code. My builds have more recent kernel and microcode from Amlogic (the last one that is available to public) and while it is better in some aspects than code in Minix Android, it is worse in others. I can try reverting some parts of this code but we should hope Amlogic will fix this in next public release, whenever that happens...

Channels switching on simple client is faster then in 8.0.0g but still slower then jarvis

I will quote myself from WeTek forum:

The only benefit from my patch is that you have to wait up to 1 second shorter for hardware decoder to initialize. The rest of delay comes from tuner and Kodi itself. I am still not sure whether the patch does not break some playback cases.

and from Github:

Long channel switching times seems to be a general issue in Kodi v17, not Amlogic-specific: Very Slow Channel Switching iptv simple client

Update to 8.0.0g in OP.

It is publicly available. Nothing interesting in there: Some thoughts on Amlogic – Stane1983's place

I do not have access to any non-public sources.

I can reproduce crashes with my box, so logs are not needed.

Only native fbdev (or X11) library would help I'm afraid.

I'm afraid that as long as we have to use libhybris I cannot help much with the resets. I have spent a lot of time trying to fix this with no success.

8.0.0.f has broken Live TV for me. [...]
I've gone back to 8.0.0.e which works fine.

8.0.0g uploading now, changelog and links in OP. renzz please check if it is better than 8.0.0f. Channel switching times improves only in some cases.

Very good find. I've always told you it's a firmware issue.

Latest version indicator.

The patch is already included in the latest afl1's build.

afl1 I think he means the patch that I added to not change blackout_policy. I am working to make it look better.

doggyofone Foolproof try executing reboot update in Terminal Emulator app.

I tested my build on Minix U1 with RTL2832 USB tuner and it worked. That's all I know.

I confirm that TVHeadend works fine with a USB. You need to use Raybuntu's 32-bit userspace build for WP2.

Temp sensor enabled build is working 100% fine on my U1. Android firmware is FW012.

I'm still working on making analog audio work properly.

8.0-alpha-preview4 in OP.
