I'm trying to do a Libreelec 10 build with the legacy kernel and @knaersche patches.
Now I understand why the developers chose to switch to mainline code and remove proprietary software support :).
It took me a while to get kodi up and running (mali blobs works only with some glibc and kernel builds only with gcc 8).
But at this moment, it's the only way to get my box working 100%, so I decided to give it a try and eventually share my results :).
I'm only a guy with some knowledge who can update his box and that try to return something to the community 
A great job was done by knaerzche with this project.
admtpu check now... never used docker so I don't know I've built the right things.
hongdat1106 sorry but I don't know. I've googled to try to find some source code but nothing relevant apart from the work done by the guys of armbian port.
I've updated my fork
GitHub - ilmich/LibreELEC.tv: Just enough OS for KODI
with latest widevine fixes.
Tested with my alfawise a8 build (that works on my box) and works very well.
Keep in mind that libreelec addons maybe don't work anymore because the official repository for rockchip rk3328 (but compatible with rk322x) seems unreachable. So, I'm building addons from source.
Edit: build and some addons (for now only inputstream.adaptive) on
if you build legacy images with the legacy kernel (4.4) the driver for SSV6051 is built by default for the supported box mentioned in the first post (including a8).
Assuming you have already checked the kernel logs, try to decompile the device tree blob of your image.
The one for a8 has this
wireless-wlan {
compatible = "wlan-platdata";
rockchip,grf = <0x36>;
wifi_chip_type = "ssv6051";
sdio_vref = <0xce4>;
WIFI,host_wake_irq = <0x75 0x1c 0x00>;
status = "okay";
};which enables the wifi chip.
Hi admtpu
I tried the files, only the mxq4k and A8 files work, but no wifi?
it's strange because I have a box with the same wifi chip and the image for the a8 works without problems.
However, I advise you to use an external wifi card.
In my case the integrated wifi works badly, because the box heats up a lot and the internal components after a while lower the performance.
I'm new to libreelec, but I'm pretty versed in linux, can you guide me how to make it?
make sure your system is ready for build and then launch this command (for example)
`PROJECT=Rockchip DEVICE=RK322x ARCH=arm UBOOT_SYSTEM=rk3228b-a8 make imageand if the build is ok, under /target you will find the image produced.
Hi knaerzche,
are there any chances that your repositories will be updated !? It seems that some problems with widevine have been fixed.
Thanks in advance.

Hi juliomm64,
I've uploaded the image of (quoted from 1st post)
- MXQ 4K Pro, RK3228A, DDR3, oviously deliverd with different wifi types - some will work, others not
I've also removed oldest image (kodi 18.8) in order to reduce space on my gdrive.
Cheers
Michele
Display MoreHi all,
I've builted latest stable branch (with kodi 18.8) for my rockchip board (Alfawise A8).
libreelec-rk322x – Google Drive
If anyone needs other builds let me know (for space reasons I can't build all boards).
Cheers

Hi all,
I've updated my images with latest knaerzche commits on his libreelect-9.2 branch (kodi 18.9)
Cheers

looking into the log I've founded
Error Contents: 400 Client Error: Bad Request for url: https://login2.vtm.be/login/emailfirst/password?client_id=vtm-go-webthat is an http client error indicating that the addon maybe use an old api (maybe fixed with this Fix authentication due to cookie changes by michaelarnauts · Pull Request #212 · add-ons/plugin.video.vtm.go · GitHub )
Sorry, but I can't help you because is not a libreelec issue 
I'm using netflix / amazon prime / dazn without any issue
I've updated my builds, now for libreelec addons it points to the official one for rk3328 (thanks to d-rex ).
For my needs works fine (I've tried some emulators)
this is an unofficial port of libreelec (for now).
This would mean that there is no official libreelec addons repository for rk3228/rk3229.
I think that knaerzche builds works with some hack(maybe pointing another libreelec addons repository) that is not present in the source code.
I'll try to fix my builds.

Sorry, can not identify such "answers". There is a discussion around RK3229 but nothing precisely about the last firmware, where is it, if works or no.
Please, let me know again about my worries.
Give again such answers.... I have ever the same problems reported here ... I can not boot under RK3229 ... with such RAM and ROM described.
Do you have some success on it?
cc
Have you tried images for rk3228 instead of rk3229!?!? Keep in mind that often rk3228 boxes are sold as rk3229.
Try to flash an image for rk3228 (for example the alfawise a8).
Unfortunately with these boxes, you have to try until you find the right image
Hi,
So, any chances for image to work with HK1 Mini?
check my gdrive folder
Display MoreHmm ?
dit knaerzche's build get updated ? because I was using his LE9.2 and that has KODI 18.5
and his LE9.80 I could never get to boot on my box (the one Spike build for me I could, but that had KODI Alpha 19)
or do you mean you updated the KODI to 18.8 in Knaezche's build ?
(sorry for beeing a noob , im learning, but eager to learn

the source code of the stable branch (libreelec 9.2)
GitHub - knaerzche/LibreELEC.tv at libreelec-9.2
is updated, but @knaerzche's images not yet.
So I've cloned his repo and build the image for my box by myself.
Am I the only one having trouble with the libreelec repo?
I noticed that some packages have urls which are wrong or out of date
For example rockchip has removed the source code of the mpp package. But on github I found a fork
GitHub - HermanChen/mpp: Rockchip MPP(Media Process Platfrom)
that still works.
Display MoreI just tested this on my MXR 4K box, (with RK3229 chip)
Only played with it 5 minutes, but looks like everything works out of the box
LAN, Wifi, Sound,
and what chocking is , even my remote works !!!!!! I spend a few day's with alot of help from user SpikeSP87 to get my remote to work on the standard build, and I gues you have the same remote
Build does have the same problem that even unmapped if I dare press the blue VOL+ button the box kills itself
(so thats defenatly a hardware issue between my box and kodi/libreelec)
Thank you for this build, I can now move this box from KODI 18.5 to 18.8
Hans
Glad to know it was useful :D.
However I'll forgot to mention that I've only builted(and shared) knaerzche repo with latest commits. Nothing more, nothing less

occasionally it also happens to me that it restarts itself but I don't know if the cause and the high temperature
Have you tried with another power supply ?!
Regarding temperature, I renewed the thermal paste of the heat sink and the CPU is fresher
Thank you. I followed these steps and everything looked to be ok, but when I tried to start the system I got an error message "failed to start login service". The system starts but a lot of services are no running (ssh, etc). I think I will have to back to the original image.
It's strange because
- I'm using an image with this patch
- the two files are used only with software decoded streams(during my experiments, eventually broken shaders cause only black screen during playback)
I forgot to say that the whole procedure must be performed as super user, because otherwise there is the risk that the resulting filesystem may have wrong permissions.
In any case, the correct procedure would be to recompile the image with the patch. I'll try to send it to the project maintainer.
