Of course WiFi works, just not Realtek SDIO based modules, at least not some of them. OrangePi PC doesn't come with such module, so that doesn't concern you. Many USB based dongles should work, I just don't know what to recommend. I never did any test.

ramzess Please don't use code tags. I don't have Tanix TX6 IR configuration file. But you can make it yourself with following this guide.

sorry, but without video sample which would demonstrate the issue it's basically impossible to do anything.

In assemblies Generic.x86_64, you can change the keyboard layout for typing to change the combination of Alt+Shift. This is really not enough, only the on-screen keyboard works.
Can this be improved?
This is not appropriate subforum for such questions.
Wanted to ask if you have any intentions to support the TV out (CVBS) for this Allwinner chips.
Not currently, no. Some patches exist for older kernels which would have to be ported. Maybe it wouldn't be that hard and it would be interesting to see how it behaves when monitors are connected to CVBS and HDMI port at the same time.
My computer (Acer E15 Start, Manjaro 18.1.0) plays all channels, my Orange Pi PC (with usb stick Astrometa and same Sony chip) plays test videos hevc 8-bit from jell.yfish.us, but broadcast dvb-t2 not (Czech Republic, HEVC 8-bit, level 4.2). Orange Pi PC freezes as described by the user mastero. Where is the problem?
Maybe with HW decoding? Disable HW decoding in settings and try again. If that helps, try to capture video directly from DVB dongle so I could analyze it.

This box has A80, right? If so, you're out of luck. It would require considerable effort on kernel side - HDMI, VPU and I2S drivers are missing and DMA driver status is unknown (nobody tested it). IIRC also display driver might not be good enough. Biggest showstopper is that it uses PowerVR GPU, for which there are no driver which would work with GBM interface (requirement for LibreELEC). Some months ago there was one person from PowerVR on #linux-sunxi IRC, who claimed that wants provide such blob, but I don't think anything happened.
EDIT: By missing I mean that very similar drivers already exist, but they need A80 specific adjustments.

They are here, where are nightlies are: test.libreelec.tv

Here I wanted to take a screenshot, but it turned out that my OPi always creates a picture without an image: a 6kb .png file and a black screen inside is blank. I ask you to consider this as another mistake.
This is known. There is Kodi PR which will fix this, but as far as I know, it has not been merged yet.
Regarding Samba - can you try using newer version of protocol? I think version 1.0 is not supported due to security risk. But I have never used it, so it may be something else.
BTW, are you using nightly version also on Intel box? If not, please try it. All images should have same Samba settings - if you're using same version of images, in this case nightlies.

LibreELEC-H3.arm-8.0-devel-20170516114055-r25546-g745f679-opipcplus.img - see internal WIFI
That image is not made by me. But lumpi is correct, Realtek SDIO wifi modules are not supported. Decision was made not to add additional out-of-tree Realtek drivers, because nobody really likes fixing them every kernel update and AFAIK they are not compatible with iwd, which will be used in future instead of wpa_supplicant.

jdpc Please test this: libreelec-h3.arm-9.80-devel-20190920211508-9d2b397.tar
It has a hack to make I2S settings exactly the same as on old OpenELEC. If that still not it, we'll move focus on HDMI.

No Ethernet in pine64-lts images. I've tried a couple of nightly images, and none can detect the ethernet port. I saw some discussion about ethernetnot working previously in this thread, but from what I figured that was supposed to have been resolved.
That discussion was about Pine64+. Maybe LTS version needs similar fix. I will prepare test update.
-
jdpc Interesting, settings are exactly the same except for the base clock which expected. What is unexpected is that 48kHz I2S status shows FIFO underrun (audio is not provided fast enough). I have no idea how that could happen. Certainly something to investigate.
EDIT: That is for receive side, which is even stranger, because audio receiving is not supported by HDMI.

Will extensions be ready or should we wait a bit?
You mean add-ons? Most add-ons depends on Kodi version and some also on kernel, but that shouldn't affect anything, because kernel userspace API is stable. Anyway, Kodi was updated few days back, so yeah, you can wait a bit. But to be honest, I'm not sure how frequently add-ons are rebuilt. It can take more than a week.
-
FYI, next nightly will be with Linux 5.3.0 and with fix for H6 HDMI audio.
-
jdpc patrickkfkan can you provide output of following commands during playback of video with 48kHz audio?
Codecat /sys/kernel/debug/clk/clk_summary cat /sys/kernel/debug/regmap/1c22800.i2s/registersI would still like to resolve this issue, if possible.
-
i would like to know if we can burn on emmc and how to do it if it is possible ?
That's already explained in more details somewhere here or in previous topic or both. Just burn same image to emmc over ssh.
-
jdpc patrickkfkan Another update to test: libreelec-h3.arm-9.80-devel-20190917173122-d52e8dc.tar If this still doesn't work, I'll have to write that script.
-
No, it doesn't work for everyone, that's why I'm asking. Anyway, I tried to reproduce this issue on my TV, but it worked every time. If nothing would help, I'll write a script which will dump HW settings and you'll run it on LibreELEC and OpenELEC. Comparison of those two dumps should give clue what's different and why it doesn't work. But before that, there are still some settings to be updated.
