Thanks for your response chewittt. I did get it to run last night after doing a factory reset of the wetek play, updating the nand os to weOS 1.1.8 and then reformat my sd card and then write the lastest img from the libreELEC utility.
The flicker is gone but playback is not as smooth as with the build I was running before "OpenElec with kodi 15.2".
Maybe the Wetek Play 1 just dosnt have the processing power for the newer kodi versions. I think I read somewhere that something about the hardware acceleration was changed at some time after kodi 15.2, is that correct ? and could that be why I see a decrease in playback performance?
To clarify what I mean by decrease in playback performance, in kodi 15.2 I ran with no auto adjustment of framerate and no sync to display. However in 17.4 if I run with the same settings the playback isnt smooth at all and I need to run with yes to auto adjustment of framerate which runs smooth for the most cases but have stutters here and there which I never noticed in kodi 15.2. The box is connected to a NAD t757v2 and a Panasonic VT20 plasma.

I did a fresh install of 8.1.0 and I formatted my card before writing the new image. I guess what I am searching for is other peoples experience with the various builds on the Wetek Play 1 device. All I seem to find is people talking about the Wetek Play 2

Hi everyone
I have been searching around but cant seem to find definitive answer to where I should be looking for the best builds for Wetek's Play 1 device.
I am currently running openElec with kodi 15.2 on an sd-card which runs pretty good, but I would like to try out the features of newer kodi versions. I tried to load LibreELEC 8.1.0 I believe it was with kodi 17.4 rc and it booted just fine but I got screen flicker and jerky playback after only a minute or two of playtime. Video and audio settings in kodi are set to the same as I had in kodi 15.2.
Any hints would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance
