ADDITIONAL_DRIVERS="$ADDITIONAL_DRIVERS gpu-sunxi"
is obsolete.
Fixed and rebased on latest master, which brings Kodi 18.3.

That was already asked and has answer here: LibreELEC (Leia) 9.2 ALPHA1 with Raspberry Pi 4B Support

The only problems I have found, is that the eth isn't working; or It's very very slow when It tries to connect on internet. I can ping any IP and domain name; on my LAN it works properly, but for example It can't download any addon updates because It's very slow and than goes into some error.I fixed this problem by using an usb eth adapter.
Are you sure that you're using image for Pine64+? In the past, people mixed up Pine64 and Pine64+ images, which mostly differ just in ethernet settings. However, I vaguely remember that some Pine64 boards had ethernet issues, which was connected with Realthek PHY chip used on board. There is workaround, but it never made to mainline kernel and I didn't include it here. Maybe it would help you, but any change like that might break other boards...
The second problem It occurred to me is that every time I shutdown my tv, or I switch the tv source, libreelec crashes completely. In order to avoid this problem I'm forced to stop the kodi.service unit, from ssh, before shutting down my tv. Of course, when I want to use it again, i have to start the kodi.service. I'm using termux on my phone, so It's a very easy task.
What you really need to do is to change your HDMI CEC settings in Kodi Input options. Just disable hibernation on source switch or TV shutdown and you'll be fine. This would be a feature if we would have an ability to wake up from CEC, which BTW is possible, but it's in distant future (using AR100 coprocessor).
Anyone know is the H6 faster than the BCM processor the RPI 4 has?
If you mean raw CPU speed, then RPI4 is faster. However, H6, for example, supports HW decoding 4K H264 videos and it's able to HW decode more codecs.
You also have to know that a lot more people work on RPI4 than H6, so yes, you will get features faster. Although I already made HDR demo for H6

how far away do you think panfrost is for H6?
It will still take some time. T720 is still not really supported by panfrost. Anyway, this issue doesn't seem to be driver related but more like power related, e.g. find correct mix of frequency and voltage. I'm using that from Android, but for some reason, it doesn't work well... But I might be completely wrong about that and may be indeed driver related...

gamma-271 Can you test: libreelec-h6.arm-9.80-devel-20190701201203-8a8e6a1-orangepi_one_plus.img.gz ?
It seems that Mali causes system lockups if it doesn't run on lowest setting... I'll need to investigate this further.

djnice you actually don't need anything special to combine U-Boot with rest of the image, just SD card reader/writer.
But for sake of simplicity, here is latest Tanix TX6 image, which should work with most cheap H6 STBs (ethernet and few other things still don't work):
libreelec-h6.arm-9.80-devel-20190701192544-71813d9-tanix_tx6.img.gz
-
A64 and other images will be rebuild in in several hours, so wait until then. H6 images are slightly broken and I'm working to fix this, but it will probably take few days.
-
OK, its working now.
Maybe it was the VM or the laptop, but after reboot it is how supposed to be.
Kodi started, so all good.
Ok, great! Thanks for your patience.

It is possible that I'm doing something wrong, but can't find where.
My linux skills are basic, can you tell me how to do that search
strings u-boot-sunxi-with-spl2.bin | grep "U-Boot SPL"
Can you tell me which command you are using for burning U-Boot to it?
-
I guess this post answers your question: LibreELEC (Leia) 9.2 ALPHA1 with Raspberry Pi 4B Support
-
Weird, I'm pretty sure I uploaded it. Let's try this another way: u-boot-sunxi-with-spl2.zip Before flashing you can search for "U-Boot SPL" and check that time stamp is 15:18:14
-
I think this was the same as previous, it doesn't boot and version is the same -
U-Boot SPL 2019.04 (Jun 29 2019 - 14:46:19 +0200)
Hm... are you sure you downloaded the right one? The one on the server has U-Boot SPL 2019.04 (Jun 29 2019 - 15:18:14 +0200) in it and the name is u-boot-sunxi-with-spl2.bin (note the "2" in it).
-
chocho This should be it: u-boot-sunxi-with-spl2.bin
Sorry for bothering you, but I really want to put it in appropriate form for later inclusion in mainline U-Boot.
-
chocho Can you please test this U-Boot for the last time? u-boot-sunxi-with-spl2.bin
I removed some debug code and I want to be sure I didn't break anything. You don't need to provide output this time if it works.
Regarding ethernet, it needs some work on kernel side. Driver needs to be written for ethernet PHY, which is probably next thing I will do.
-
Awesome, now detected RAM is 2GB.
Great! Thanks for testing! I'll add this to AW updates PR, which might be a bit late due to OrangePi One Plus issues.
Just FYI, half DQ also means lower memory bandwidth, so this also means it might have issues with high bitrate movies.
-
chocho Another attempt: u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin
-
chocho no need to apologize. Test whenever you have time.
I prepared two new versions:
Please test first one first.
