Naa .. I actually have the tuner working on a rpi4 with LE/NPVR (Thanks !!).
I decided to pick up an HK since it was an AM905 board and I figured it would be (at some point) supported then by LE.

Additionally the price point competes well with the Chinese boards (esp. for an AML chip), but still the HK quality and ecosystem. Still not so much support for rockchip unfortunately, and Allwinner just not getting any love in the LE/CE space.

Oh well .. will wait and see if CE does anything here. Think I'm at the end of my abilities getting a driver for the tuner in there. Most likely needs to be compiled for the AML X5M. THose brain cells went into retirement more than 10 yrs ago

More interested in the tuner supper tbh .. the rest I can do myself.

But no hacking Kodi not my thing. Guess I cross my fingers for CE then.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Great little board from HK cutting costs in interesting places in order to get a 6nm 2.5GHz chip onboard and keep the price at $40.

Wondering if there'll be any support for this going forward.

Tried getting my HP WinTV Nova S2 going without any luck so far.

Any tips on getting that up and going with Ubuntu Server appreciated.
