Connecting to LibreELEC using PuTTY

Quote from sparkymark79

i wonder if my WP2 box is just bust. To be clear, on the EMMC is libreelec 9.0.2 which cannot install any addons, everything fails.

When i burn your image to sdcard and try and boot with it i just get a green screen after the wetek logo. Tried many times. Does the SDcard have to be a particular type. i'm trying with an 8GB which is all i have to hand

thankyou for your help though

you may find a solution here
addons fails to install

Thank you @HiassofT, your solution worked perfectly.

I have the same issues previously i could install and update any addons from official repository but right now without changing any settings suddenly I can't any more, this is my debug log hopefully somebody can help me.

wetek play 2 debug logs

LE is currently built around the assumption of being installed on an IPv4 device behind a NAT gateway in a domestic/home network. As a result you should assume there is only partial support for IPv6 in the OS. In fact i'm surprised there is any, as last time I actually looked it was mostly disabled everywhere. You are welcome to make suggestions on improvements, but AFAIK none of the core team have access to IPv6 networks to validate any suggestions that are made. Things that appear (or not) in the settings GUI could simply be things that didn't exist in connman when the settings add-on was originally written in 2012/2013 so it's worthwhile cross-referencing with connman documentation and the "connmanctl" utility. If you make changes via connmanctl they will be persistent.

Aroosha… Thanks a ton for your help, this is exactly what I was looking for. I had been looking all over for stuff, but it seems everyone that has a good 4k build always has the Caveat "will support 8bit, not 10bit" etc... going to look into this odroid-n2 and CoreElec today.

your welcome, just keep in mind that ODROID-N2 is new and very powerful platform but not mature enough, and lots of things in progress like its open source GPU driver. hear list of things works and does not work with new ODROID-N2. Odroid N2 test builds(click)

What works:

Booting from eMMC/SD
DVB (USB only)
Hardware decoding
HDR (HDR10 and HLG formats)
Network
Sound - (including passthrough, see below. If using passthrough, select the HDMI output)

What doesn’t work:

Automatic color space/color depth switching (aka cs/cd)
LPCM multichannel passthrough
What still has issues:

DD+ passthrough with certain AVR’s
Playback stutters with 59.94/60fps content

It seems there is working version of CoreELEC availeble for ODROID-N2, " that has all the main compenents working to be able to use this device on a daily basis, including booting from both SD and eMMC, DVB support, hardware decoding, HDR, network and sound!" check it out!

As far as i know there is no 4K 10bit HDR support in any Intel, Amd, Nvidia, x86_64 platform yet when using Linux, LibreELEC. You need to understand that Linux is still evolving support for HDR but development and migrating to modern Linux kernel are in progress and soon you will have many option to choose like new ODROID-N2 with amlogic S922X chip. my advise is for know look for temporary solution like cheap S905D with Gigabit Ethernet or more pricey Apple TV 4K running the MrMC App. you can find more information hear-4K HDR10 - State of Play thread - important media player limitations (click).

As far as i know the HDMI port of this NUC only support the older 1.4a standard so you can't get refresh rate beyond 30 HZ in 4k resolution. An HDMI 2.0 output can be added via converter from DisplayPort to get 60 HZ refresh rate output, but i don't know whether this will work in Libreelec or not.

You can change Tvheadend default recording path by login in its web interface, usually by interning your box ip:9981 in your web-browser i attached a picture below so you can change it easily.

I have a tv box meecol KI pro (amlogic s905d), and I have a problem with tv heandend with the drivers,

any configuration guide? currently it comes out as if it had no driver installed, and used this guide [8.2.3.1] LibreELEC 8.2 for S905/S905X = 1

and configured all tv headend, but when I go to controller-dvb they do not appear.

any solution ?

I also have a problem with the internet, I can not connect via ethernet, via wifi connects perfect

Thank you

Perhaps you are using the wrong device tree,. download the device tree that suitable for your device and rename it to dtb.img then Copy and replace the renamed file to main folder of SD card. if you need proper help from forum members please provide full Kodi log as described.

Well you should ask this question from yourself before buying this device. Does this device support by libreelec? I think chewitt can clarify your situation.

This Sundtek MediaTV Pro and this DVB-C USB Devices may help you. check it out.

Weird... It does have Gigabit Ethernet so therefor I was thinking it could not be the normal s905. ..

Ohwell... Back to the drawing board

This may help you vcrrr . Mecool KI PRO

As far as i know Minix U1 has outdated S905 soc not the x variant. which can not decode HDR colors correctly and the result are washed out colors. you should buy tv box with S905X/D soc also S905X doesn't have Gigabit Ethernet. the S905X/D has newer VPU which can decode VP9 videos too.

Well as far as HDR is your concern none of libreelec supported Amlogic socs can produce true HDR video nor kodi krypton is ready for that. HDR formats composed of many different parts, per pixel brightness metadata, wider color gamuts and more colors(aka 10,12 bits colors ) In other words, they're brighter and more colorful. none of libreelec supported Amlogic socs can do all aspect of HDR at the same time for example S905x soc you mentioned above output 8bits colors instead of 10 and produce fake HDR.

You can find your answer hear [8.2.4.1] LibreELEC Kodi Krypton - S905 & S912 devices

Well ODROID C2 can decode 4k HEVC content with ease but keep in mind 4k without HDR is useless because most of 4k content available today are paired with HDR and has wider color gamuts which s905 soc can't decode correctly and the result is washed out colors. s905x/D soc can't output true 10bit colors depth and s912 doesn't support officially by libreelec. if you need true 4k HDR whether you should wait for new Amlogic soc or buy Apple tv 4k.
