    Only OrangePi 3 LTS is based on Allwinner SoC. I'll check why it's not listed. I'm not sure if OrangePi 4 LTS is officially supported. Anyway, it has Rockchip SoC.

    True, the 4LTS has RK soc but it shouldn't be a problem since there are several images for the 3399. Even one for an Orange Pi 4 (I don't know which one it will be exactly) but I didn't specify which motherboard it is. It's a shame because it's a board with good features and a good processor. Let's see if those of us who have this plaque are lucky in the future and get something for it. Anyway thanks for the work you do to make this work. regards

    Good afternoon.

    In the end I got this board since it is the one that has the most development of all the Orange pi. Well, I have two questions:

    1- Is there the possibility of using Wi-Fi with a USB adapter?

    2- Since it has an IR port, what is the way to link a controller in libreelec?

    Code
    Buenas tardes.
    
    Why do you insist so much on making the latest version of Libreelec usable???
    
    These versions are for testing purposes only. Plex was going well for you in version 10 ??? If the answer is positive, why did you switch to a beta version????

    So I tried the above mentioned latest image and while it boots, it does not detect the resolution correctly and there is no network found.

    I am at loss on how to proceed here. I tried armbian and indeed, Wifi as well as screen resolution is working, kodi is not working when installed per ppa, though.

    What else can I do?

    Code
    the only thing is to wait...
    I've been with this board for months and I'm still waiting.
    Let's see if at least with the kodi 20 version they implement something on this board for use with multimedia.
    
    I have the 4 LTS and also the 4 LTS, I bought them to use it only with libreelec and there is no way.
    
    The only thing left for us if we want to use this board for multimedia is to do it through Android, which I have tried and it works very well, although a bit slow because I am used to libreelec

    Yes, initially, there is a LAN connection, but after restarting, the LAN connection is not detected. I assume that the Orange Pi 3 LTS and Orange Pi 3 boards are different. And when you try to install Ip Tv Simple Client Orange Pi 3 LTS spontaneously overloads (

    Code
    What insgen are you talking about because in mine nothing at all works on the network.
    the opi 3 LTS together with the 4 LTS are also rubbish or hardly used. I only see LE development for PCs and its variants.

    List of device-trees in the upstream kernel is here: https://github.com/torvalds/linux…oot/dts/amlogic

    And the probably cheap Realtek USB WiFi? (not sure what a skewer is) device works in CE because their kerrnel never changes so bundling a large number of poor quality realtek drivers that break and need new patches with every kernel bump isn't a big issue for them. In LE the kernel changes frequently and we got bored of the make-work involved years ago and stopped adding Realtek vendor drivers.

    Code
    I hope I haven't offended anyone about the USB Wi-Fi. it was just a question to understand why
    
    The problem is that I have these two boards here bought only for Libreelec and I don't know what to do with them... (Orangepi 3 and 4, both LTS)
    They don't work for what I want them for

    Here is the patch to support Orange Pi 3 LTS ethernet NIC YT8531 http://ix.io/3PDm

    Made from linux-sunxi 5.10 patches

    git checkout 10.0

    Put to projects/Allwinner/patches/linux/0053-motorcomm-driver-YT8531.patch

    Then build and flash orangepi-3 image

    You told me that in the end you got a pi3 LTS to be able to work on it, right?

    Let's see if with luck you can make an image that works both wifi and ethernet.

    Right now I'm using Kodi on the Android that comes with the board and it's going very well. But I'm not interested in Android, I would like to have Libreelec directly on my board.

    Hopefully you can get it working soon.

    From this moment I want to thank you for everything you do and help us.

    By the way, I also have a pi4 LTS that carries the rk3399. I imagine that for this plate there will still be a long way to go until an image for it comes out. The manufacturer should send several plates to you every time they release something new and thus be up to date on everything. They would be the main beneficiaries because they would sell many more plates.

    I tried your image on my Pi 3 LTS and Ethernet works but not fast enough to use. At most it reaches 16Kb/s and thus it is impossible to work with it. Anyway there must be something weird because my board must not have the same chip as yours. I don't know which one is mine, but the wifi one is the AW859A.


    Cheers
