I think you will need to multiply your numbers by a lot

yup i apologies if i hurt someone or make people thing this was a joke, but i completely didn't mean to degrade someone capacity, i'm fully aware kszaq skill is wonderfull, he's one the good person who dedicate his skill to develop LE for amlogic devices and freely sharing to others, and i dont know wether amlogic gave him special "credit" or not at all, or even many user here feel oblige to donate him coffee although he deserves it, i refer "him" as the representation of the whole fantastic Kodi, LibreElec team, former Openelec team, Alex, Kerber, Codesnake, etc.

well if one box maker contribute something to him and to Libreelec/Kodi as well, then they could put their brand into their site announcing that this box has supported the development, so all of us would consider purchasing what brand and recommendation the developer here suggested, that's it, instead of nothing what other Chinese boxes does. Well the salary skill is something to consider "really carefully", because we're gonna fight with those cheap Chinese boxes here.

here's another thought
* in satellite hobbies there is a lot potential customer, if you could make a little survey how many sat stb sales in a year, you are gonna be surprise. while this amlogic processor has the capability to be a satellite receiver, so why don't you grab their customer, you could even make a proposal to cable provider to become their cable stb designer, imagine cable stb with LE capability, fyi enigma2 sat boxes twice the wetek play prices.

* another segment, not really audiophile freak, but if you could just make this box as a music and karaoke player, where we could just plug a flash and push play on remote button and the music start playing without the hassle to see menu on the screen, then this could an incredible portable player, i dont want to buy karaoker player, but kodi boxes with karaoker player that's a plus.

* let the retro games and HTPC thingy become kszaq and LE headache.
* if you have completed the production, don't forget to list all the potential developer and send them the box for free, let them play with your box as they will share to the world with their finding

less but not least I've got to say excuse me for my English and USD is not my main language and currency

does this site has any public proposal for hiring its developer, such as how much money one need to spend for supporting a single product for one year, lets say something like this
kszaq only > $1000 /year
escalade only > $2000 / year

team work > $5000 /year
not so much but its better thank coffee donation, isn't it
if it does this way, maybe all company or start up would consider ask them for help

lets say people seperate into 2 diferrent kind, one kind looking only for good quality no matter the price, the other only cares for cheap product with all in one capabilities, i'm on the second categories, if only i can find a car with the feature of home to stay and include washing machine in the baggage and stove and frig in the front, i will get it for sure, and you can find most of people like me, particularly who always stare into this subforum.

i agree for the build the box planning and probably will consider purchase it, if
- equipped with dvbst2 tuner, and easy to get the driver, so some talented people can cook enigma2 on it
- remote > good and complete button for pvr/media playback
- don't care for the licenced audio, hd content as long the price can stay low

box without tuner already have so many variant on the market, while with tuner afaik only have 2, wetek for 1st type, k1/2 for for the 2nd type, i'm open up your mind as i'm dreaming to build box the my self

here the battle field
-box without tuner > wetekhub, mxq, minimx, m9, m8, tronsmart, bla bla... > most of them has bad remote, no remote has audio jack (bluetooth)
-box with tuner > wetel play1/2, k1/k2 pro > none of the them equip with ci slot

edit : one thing to consider, the box without good software are useless, instead of wasting you money on developing android, i suggest you hire one good libreelec team for full software development support.

cheers, good luck with your planning

Boom! We have tv again!
Perfect - Many thanks.

yup, thanks a lot kszaq, this version the most stable of all LE for amlogic releases, the memory stays above 500mb after running around all channel, before this, everytime i switch to fashion 4k always freezes the system, now i've been running almost an hour the system keeps running superb!

could you build truecrypt addons, i don't see it on the list the link you gave me
unofficial-addons/addons/system/truecrypt/source at master · OpenELEC/unofficial-addons · GitHub
thanks again

where can i manually download pvr.vuplus.enigma for arm 32?

@ JoKeRzBoX I'm totally lost configuring audio, everytime i select audio device in setting no matter what option in there the audio still muted, and after restart the audio device always return to hw:0,1

here's my aplay -L
LibreELEC:~ # aplay -L
null
Discard all samples (playback) or generate zero samples (capture)
default:CARD=AMLM8AUDIO
AML-M8AUDIO,
Default Audio Device
sysdefault:CARD=AMLM8AUDIO
AML-M8AUDIO,
Default Audio Device
hdmi:CARD=AMLM8AUDIO,DEV=0
AML-M8AUDIO,
HDMI Audio Output

hope you could point me to the right direction, thanks

Looks like you have your LE set for 720p resolution (can you confirm?). Retroarch is pre-configured for 1080p screens but it may be possible to change those in settings (although I am not sure how). Can you search for a potential solution or post your question on the Retroarch specific thread? You will probably get more answers and suggestions there.

yup exactly, my res 720p50hz i set that because my channels in PVR almost all broadcast in 25fps, anyway thank you for you quick reply and amazing addons

edit: OK your prediction was correcto, after change res to 1080 it shows the whole screen

hi JoKeRzBoX , i've been able to install your addons to both K's LE 7 and alpha 8, but on first try the screen garbled after next try the screen resolution too big to fit the screen, i only see 1/4 top left part on my tv, i've try to change settings in retroarch.cfg but no effect at all, where else should i change?
thanks, this is the first time i see retroarch on s905 box

my box MXQ Pro Quick Play s905 1/8

hi kszaq i use vuplus/enigma2 addons, streaming stuttering no matter sd or hd channel, but playing file locally or through samba seems ok, going back to 007 normal again, been trying all kind dtb.img especially for p200 (my box s905), i'll provide log when i'm at home if necessary, thanks

Quote from saunderez

Any chance you could do the same for kzaq's WIP LibreELEC 7.9.0 Alpha build located here

I'm finding this build better than the 7.0 build for a number of reasons (mainly playback improvements and improved Bluetooth stability) and would love to get RetroArch working on it. I'm fine with injecting the files into the filesystem myself but I'm a bit unsure about how to implement the other changes you've made myself.

i agree, krypton is the only version that support PS3 Bluetooth controller, no point to run game without controller

Quote from kszaq

I got a hint from Kwiboo on translating NEC codes to LIRC: Converting Yamaha-NEC infrared codes to LIRC format | nobbin

why do you want translate the remote code, instead we could manually record amlinux remote signal value into a single lirc.conf file ? i believe it is not that hard to do, someone can do that for a particular device and share it's device lirc.conf for all of us, and you could combine it all into a single lirc.conf, afaik lirc could use more than one protocol, so we could use another unused remote beside nec protocol, cmiiw

i would be very happy to try your LE with integrated lirc version, of course if you change your mind

Quote from kszaq

Not again, I changed them for the first time. Last time I made them mandatory. Now boot partition label is LIBREELEC and data is LIBREELEC_DATA. This is to be compatible with LE master branch: scripts/mkimage: add label to "disk" partition as well · kszaq/LibreELEC.tv@0973b49 · GitHub

LibreELEC master introduced partition label after I added them to my Jarvis build, that's why it's been changed for Krypton.

ok, got it working, ps3 controller working although the led keep blinking,
but nevermind, anyway we're ready to play some game now, bravoo kszaq

hy kazaq i've got tty error updating from jarvis 008, wether from update folder or replace file manually, anyway did you change any label scheme again?

i'm downloading now, hope joystick will functioning, ps3 controller way much better than original remote, i dont even remember where i thrown that remote

afl1 i've tried lwiddif version of LE Krypton, the joystick controller working perfectly, did you turn off joystick function in your version?
here lwiddif version LibreELEC

thanks kszaq, maybe im the only person who prefer to update manually as i always did since early days of OE, so i share my experience to anyone like me, for the remote mapping i recommend to use priority 1.remote.conf on root of boot partition 2. remote.conf internal nand, 3. remote.conf amlogic universal
