X8 Plus

Tested live TV, Youtube, Movie etc.

Manual ip settings works. Great!

No crashes "with"|"without" white-list and adjust refresh rate on|off tested every possible way.

Just the Power off system reboots, seems to be my plaque with Kodi 18.1

Ok fresh install(X8 Plus) with Kodi 18.1 "X8-X8H.arm-9.1-devel-20190305214802-782f78e.img.gz" and the Power off System again Reboots instead of shutting down. So with either Upgrade or fresh install, the Power off system reboots(no shutdown).

X8-X8H.arm-9.0-devel-20190202105130-8798984.img.gz works flawless, true shutdown(checked with a wattage meter = 0 watts)

So I guess I will go back to X8-X8H.arm-9.0-devel-20190202105130-8798984 again and wait for a fix.

Yes, new SD card and install without trouble.
But can't setup remote control.
I try all Instruction and

Code

ir-keytable -c -p all -t
/sys/class/rc/: No such file or directory
No devices found

I used this: LE9.0 remote configs ir-keytable Amlogic devices

Btw can you start the minix using the remote only?

With the x8-h if i shutdown the minix, i need to remove the power plug and put it back again.

And i cannot start it from the remote.

No Start with the remote, I start it up with the power button of the box. (dont need to remove the power plug)

My X8h-Plus I need to remove the power-cord before it will start up.

Hey btw. can I just stick the "KERNEL, KERNEL.md5, SYSTEM and SYSTEM.md5" from 18.1 into the Update folder or is that a stupid idea ?

Thanks datrh, X8 Plus 100% good now with 18.1, Great job!

Network toggle switches stay on after reboot and shutdown test.

2nd report: now this is weird

Watched a couple a movies and used "Power Off System" in the Power menu and the Box reboots instead of shutting down ... ??? (like wtf)

Tried the Custom shutdown timer also and the same happened, no shutdown but it reboots again .. Remote power button same thing... it reboots. So only way is to pull the power plug out of the wall to shutdown the box.

Am I the only one...?.. , if so I will do a fresh install of "X8H.arm-9.1-devel-20190305214802-782f78e"

Went back to 18 and power off works again. I must be getting old LOL

well... i don't have this issue.

my setup :

• wifi network disabled
• wired network enabled
• dhcp enabled
• kodi has to wait that network is available before starting (30sec max)

i can reboot , shutdown/start. the wired network switch is still "on"

did you upgrade from 18 to 18.1 or .. . burn 18.1 on the SD and install ?

Did you "installtointernal" ? if you boot with SD-card, your SD-card prob. didnt get burned proper. I've done a X8 Plus, a X8h Plus and a U1 and all are working great. On the X8 boxes I use just the internal memory(speeds them up), so the boxes still boot into android.

Thank you very much! Had me spooked for day's, it works.

Thank you for your support.

In the LE Menu - Wired Networks, I wouldnt know where in Kodi one could control Lan or Wan. Every boot or shutdown > LE program settings the Wired Networks switch is switched off when box is turned back on. So I can turn it ON, I get LAN and the next reboot it toggles it to OFF again. Once turned back on(box) I have to use the slider to turn Wired Networks back on.

btw. was my method of updating the proper way ? seems everything else started up without error's and after turning the Wired Networks switch back on all worked well.

Got a question as I am a total Noob with LE so far, my Minix X8 Plus I had installed "X8-X8H.arm-9.0-devel-20190202105130-8798984" Final version and using internal memory for data. Thanks to kszaq's "howTo"

That all works great. Today I decided to update it to "X8-X8H.arm-9.1-devel-20190221083437-627c12a" so I copied the .tar file to .Updates with FTP and rebooted.

It updated fine, but I noticed that Network switch = off, so turned it back on but after shutdown or reboot it toggles it back off!

So I just stuck 18.0 in the Update Folder and rolled back to that.

Dont get me wrong the 18.1 version worked great just the Network Switch got me spooked ....

Did I Update the wrong way where I am using internal memory or is there a glitch in the 18.1 version?

Great work you do datrh, I remeber you from the old Minix Forum but never messed with LibreELEC.

Minix X8 Plus working great 100%. True shutdown, removal of powerplug not needed as box button starts it right back up!

Not the X8h-Plus, need the yank the power plug on that one to power it back up. But all works well.

Minix U1 was a peace a cake, USB stick or SD-card both work very fast. And you know USB stick's can be slow and this one is a cheap one.

Just wanna thank you for all your work and time you put into this very nice project.

Oh and btw. all 3 boxes have Finless Lollipop ROM's on them so that worked fine!
