I repeat myself too, show me the error. It could be a voltage not compatible with your card (I have 3 boards and it seems strange to me)

. But you understand that it's hard for me when someone says .. it doesn't work, but then it disappears or doesn't give helpful information.

If, on the other hand, it's a voltage problem, use the dts of the version that works. In other words copy the dts from july version (you can find them in the .tar version of my builds)

But again, without the system logs, you can write anything, but I can't help you / improve my builds.

You always do it, you say nothing works but then you don't help me understand.

thank you

the rk322x-dtb-switch is for ssh sessions. this is because with internal storage installations, changing dtb was hard.

if you are using a bootable sd card edit the file extlinux.conf (located on the first fat partition) and change dtb

for your boot problem, without some logs/screen...

hi MIKMXIII, please share logs, screenshot, something that help me to analyze your issues.

for sure my builds are used by 2 peoples (you and me) but you are the only one with problems

I am also starting to work on the port for libreelec 11.

It works fine (at least like libreelec 10), but development might be slower because I would like to try to reduce the legacy code I have used so far and in the meantime send some patches to the mainline kernel to improve soc support.

Hi all,

new build available with:

- linux 5.10.148

- fix HDMI alsa card name (you need to reselect HDMI output audio from settings)

- fix for a model of remote controller (thanks istvanhenkel)

- updated libreelec to the latest upstream changes

Cheers

Michele

Hi all,

new build available with:

- linux 5.10.146

- fix regression in hardware deinterlace filter (missing driver in kernel config)

- updated kodi & libreelec to latest upstream changes

Cheers

Michele

Hi all,

new build available with:

- linux 5.10.142

- removed esp8089 wireless linux driver (not working)

- added rtl8192f usb driver

- better emcp support (thanks @Harleythetech for testing)

- mesa3d 22.2.0

- revised cpu/gpu clocks and voltage

- new kernel config

- small fixes

This build contains some substantial changes that have been tested for over a month on my boards that I use on a daily basis, with no obvious problems. However the suggestion to try it on the SD card before updating is, for me, mandatory.

I also rented a small server to publish my builds and save valuable space on my personal google drive.

It has few resources but if I realize it is necessary, I could think of an upgrade.

hi shkelqimselimi,

often the android installed in these boxes reports false memory quantities. I can't tell you why, probably to sell as many items as possible.

My build shows the real data, which most likely in your case is 1GB.

Anyway try my build, it's a good android alternative for these boxes.

hi MIKMXIII,

sorry, but I'm on a short vacation and can't try.

Anyway keep in mind that mine is just a build of libreelec for tvbox rk322x.

So in the meantime, for this type of configurations you can try to look for them also in the kodi documentation

Userdata - Official Kodi Wiki

thanks

thanks MIKMXIII , these days I'm improving the temperature management, also adding the throttling of the gpu.

it has never happened to me, and no one has ever managed to give me a log, but with my builds the kernel restarts the board when the temperature exceeds the 100 degrees celsius.

but let's say that, thanks also to latest evolutions of the opensource mesa 3d driver, the board is much better than when I started this project (I'm experimenting with a build of lakka 4.2 and I'm quite surprised)

as for your problems, unfortunately if you use streaming, but the source is not stable there is little you can do.

on the analog audio switch, honestly I don't use it daily, but I'll do some tests and let you know

Thanks again

hi remlei,

my builds by default use a generic device tree.

The supported devices are only customizations for various leds layouts and ddr3.

So you can try first the generic one to check if all works well, and then try another dtb to find the best for your device.

If you don't find the right one I'll try to produce a dtb for v88 mars 2 (link for official android firmware are appreciated).

cheers

Michele

the driver seems to work well.

for tvheadend dvb-t and dvb-t2 are the same thing.

in the wizard select dvb-t and try to scan channels.

for freeze.. try another dtb and let me know.

Hi,

for audio there is a problem with new installations (thanks for report). Having added the analog output, it uses that by default.

If you manually select the hdmi audio output from the settings you should be ok.

For the freeze, I have a board identical to yours and I don't have these problems.

Are you using the normal dts or the overclocked one !?

hi antoniotnt,

if the tuner is this

Xbox One Digital TV Tuner - LinuxTVWiki

drivers + firmware are present in libreelec.

if you can, send me some system logs (I recommend using pastekodi)

cheers

Michele

Ciao Antonio,

this kind of boxes are hard to soft brick.

Have you tried with another USB cable?!

Cheers

Michele

Hi all,

new build available with:

- linux 5.10.128

- added esp8089 wireless linux driver (experimental because I don't own a board with that chip)

- added analog audio codec (this partially enable the a/v port). thanks jock2 for the patch

- minor fixes and improvements

Cheers

Michele

Hi all,

new build available with:

- linux 5.10.120

- mesa 21.0.5

- fix cpu thermal throttling

- fix 8723cs bluetooth

- minor fixes and improvements

RuBeN16v, Wyk72 the patch that forces the resolutions in case of wrong edid was not included because it's risky.

To solve, the best way is to use the edid compiled at this url (for example)

GitHub - akatrevorjay/edid-generator: Hackerswork to generate an EDID blob from given Xorg Modelines, complete with valid checksum.

based on the capabilities of the monitor.

hi Wyk72,

hardware decoding, as you have noticed, is a work in progress.

I've never tried with mpv, but you need to make sure you have the kernel patches (hantro / rkvdec) and also those for ffmpeg to enhance the v4lrequest layer to work with the kernel.

If you want to use libreelec's patches for ffmpeg 4.3 you can find them here

Regarding the gpu, the latest versions of the userspace mesa driver greatly optimize the performance of our mali400.

So check that your system has at least version 22.0.x.

As a bonus you can use these patches (taken from some official merge requests in the approval phase) which, if you still use my libreelec port, make a difference in terms of system fluidity.

As for the kernel, I don't tell you, because they should already be present in the armbian port and in any case you are using a different kernel than the one my port uses.
