wait, there is One Plus image. I thought you talk about Lite2.

Is there a general status how 4k is working
?Last time I checked it worked perfectly for me on OrangePi Plus 2E. Anyway, your issue seems like issue in DRM driver and not in VPU driver. VPU in both cases (downscaled or not) outputs same image, but DRM driver is responsible for downscaling and outputting it on HDMI. Can you make a photo of issue?
I need to edit the dtb file ... but the distribution does not have the "dts" utility and apt-get is disabled))
how to edit?
Only on your PC with programs like dtc. You can easily find tutorials with google.

if we want the last release of LibreElec (9.2.1) that use kodi 18.6 where we find?
I downloaded an old one 9.20 for H3 and it's really lightning, but no longer has the addons. Can you find a complete 9.20? Thanks
There are no 9.2 images and addons for Allwinner. First release of (semi) stable images will come with LE 10. However, 9.2 image and addons can be build from libreelec-9.2 branch, but be warned, a lot of fixes are missing, especially wrt video decoding.

LuRu First of all, please don't use formatting which would suggest screaming or needlessly seek attention. It's very distracting.
Those issues you found out are exactly the difference between the boards you mentioned. There is OPi Lite 2 PR open, but it seems author lost interest (maybe requested fixes were a bit too hard...). Anyway, I don't have this board. If the PR author or someone else improve it, then I'll merge it. If not, well, bad luck.

Well, it can have hdmi output, but currently clock driver is not smart enough to properly set clocks for two display outputs.
-
such issues are usually caused by wrongly set clocks. I wrongly assumed that this is tv box and enabled hdmi. Maybe hdmi driver messed clocks...

As I said million times, addons in nightly images may not work for many reasons. Best bet is to compile addons you need by yourself (if they are binary).
-
syao Sorry, but I can't help you with CEC. There are no changes in Allwinner project regarding CEC since 3rd March. Maybe you can do a bisection? I don't have much time for LE ATM, except responding on the forum.
Hi, how i can install the image in a Beelink GS1?
Burn image on SD card?
Jernej, I always wondered if the current build Kodi is able to download and install any updates itself, or would I have to compile it on my own each time and update manually from file?
Nightly and dev images don't do autoupdates IIRC. However, you can always update using update file. Try updating with nightly update.
-
service or program addons don't show drivers to choose (tbs, crazycat, etc)..
Allwinner images don't support those driver addons as they could interfere with Cedrus driver (replaced it with other version).
-
I guess we should bring the board itself upstream first? Or do you mean upstream libreelec?
No, I mean upstream kernel. well, I don't think it matters. But mainlining board would be great too.
With the other branches, i don't get networking up. But therefore I have to look into the dts for the differences.
You mean other board images? Only Tanix TX6 image have enabled 100mbit ethernet.
Anyway, this board is peculiar from many different perspectives. It would be nice to know why. If you have time to investigate, that would be great.
So best would be to find a way, how this could be fixed within the driver?
Yes.

And this is the keymap for Eachlink H6 Mini remote control:
Maybe you can send it upstream?
Kodi works fine - but sadly it doesn't come up again as soon as i did a shutdown or disconnect. I get signal on HDMI. It's kind of a console ... i can see my inputs with keyboard and remote, but thats it. No network, just black screen.
Would i get kernel messages, if i drop the “quiet“ option?
What do you do after shutdown? After shutdown you can only power cycle the board to turn it on again. You can of course try with removing "quiet". I suggest you add "ignore_loglevel" to get even more output.
Btw, is it possible to set http://LibreELEC.tv/options at eachlink-h6mini · rellla/LibreELEC.tv · GitHub depending on the device?
By device you mean board? Devices in Allwinner project are actually SoCs. There is no way to set board specific kernel options. However, you can make SoC specific options. Just move that line in options file in appropriate device subfolder.
-
The bad news are, that LE doesn't work after reboot. May it happen that there is done some update and my kernel parameters are overwritten again?
By "reboot" you mean soft reboot, right? Usually that means that kernel crashed at shutdown. Uart output would help
It seems, that the hdmi option is enough for me to get it started the first time.
ok, good to know, thanks!
-
But i simply took the Tanix Image and added "mem=2048M video=HDMI-A-1:e" to the kernel options. It works fine now.
Are both needed? If you didn't check that yet, can you do that please?
Though I couldn't connect the UART because i have v1.2 which is missing the resistor. While soldering i damaged the pads
It happens. Jump wires FTW!
-
So I took "unsupported" to mean that developers don't fix bugs for it. I take it that you mean that I'm mostly on my own with this one? Would you take any patches if I succeed?
Yes, yes and no, sorry.
Really? 'Cause what I would like to use is the tree with the best support for Mali-400 + cedrus. If you could give me a pointer to the best supported github branch for that, that would be very very helpful!
That's LibreELEC master. When I find any fix, I make PR. For example, changes in branch you used are already merged in LE master. I already deleted branches from my repo which were merged into LE.
I know you suggested to create a H2 device, but as far as I know H2 and H3 are actually fully compatible and the same, so I was wondering what difference that would make.
Scripts, which build final image, assume that device name is part of dtb file name. That's the reason your final build is missing dtb file.

I own a BananaPi M2 Zero (Allwinner H2+). I would like to run Kodi on it.
Boards with less than 1 GiB of RAM are not supported as stated in OP and it seems that there is an issue with current U-Boot on such boards and they don't boot. Not 100% sure, but that seems to be the pattern.
I checked out the cedrus_update branch.
Always use LibreELEC master branch.
Then I patched the source as follows:
You have to add new H2 device. Just copy H3 device folder and name it H2. Then create H2 section in U-Boot helper scritpt. But even if you do that, I'm not sure if it will be bootable due to possible issue in U-Boot itself.
-
.img.gz is same format as images linked in OP. It's complete image. Just extract it and burn it to SD card. For now you can ignore the rest.
-
Building image needs about 20 GiB of free disk space, less if you have already build addon (don't know how much exactly). But there is experimental feature, which cleans package as soon as it is build and installed - just add AUTOREMOVE=yes to the command line. With this, you should need much less free disk space.
