Update image LE ver 20190410.
Question. Someone else uses the model Odroid C2 ? If no one is using test images for this model, I will not spend resources on building and placing them on the site.

And if you just want to stream 720p how much would the kernel 4.x dev issues affect you for HDMI or AV output?
As far as I know, it should work now. But I do not use Netflix and can be wrong, it is better to check with chewitt . At the moment there are flaws, but LE already works well enough on S905(X) and s912. For S905X2 added support for BT and eMMC. Works full backup\restore and install LE to eMMC via GUI (no SSH required). In my copy of x96max install LE in EMMC, even without HW all 1080p video works without brakes.
PS Congratulations, You have included in the "club of enemies for the nameless individual with CNX". This nameless creature no one respects on CNX, so it uses other people's nicknames.

Image upgrade for X96max (S905X2). Added support for remote control. To use the remote control, you need to configure as described in this topic earlier (rename the appropriate file).

Added test image for x96 max (S905X2).
Please note, this is the alfa image, do not work yet : built-in sound via HDMI, WiFi, HW. Works, wired network, USB sound and USB WiFi. Video playback (up to 1080p included) surprisingly works in SW mode without problems.

Update version 20190404.
Please note that the s905 version has now changed the image name from S905 to AMLGX.

hello balbes150 - which image did you use for the Magicsee N6 RK3399? (there's 5 showing on LE's download page for rockchip.) or did you build one from scratch? (if so, do you have a cheatsheet/script to build that?) thanks in advanced!
This option is not official, so it is not on the LE download site. The universal image is at the link above. To build it, I use my own version of GIT with additional patches.

There seems to be a problem with AAC audio making all kinds of trouble even with 1080p.
This multi-channel sound ?

Can you please update to Leia 18 final version.. waiting since Nov. 2018.
I'm working on it, but it's not fast. Kernel 3.10 is very outdated and the main work is to add support to the main kernel.
-
The new version 20190324. Please S912 to check the operation of playback in the next version. After the start of the video playback, be sure to move the mouse, that would appear the bottom menu with a ruler of the playback time and the "stop" buttons . After that, after a few seconds, the menu is removed and at the end of the video playback, KODI should normally return to the file playlist. It also removes the "circle" from the center of the screen when playing.

I recommend to try these LE options ON Odroid C2. This will allow you to check on which 4K TV the KODI interface works. I pay attention while the video of the 4K format does not work on Odroid C2.

Update image 20190322
For those who have 4K TV. Please check this LE option. I am interested in the operation of the interface in 4K mode. 4K video decoding does not work yet S905, i.e. 4K video does not work yet to s905. The other 1080 and 720 video options should work.
Also a question to owners of the regular remote control for Odroid C2, to check its work (whether it works at all in this version image Odroid C2).
For model Tronsmart Vega s95 works all hardware (WiFi, BT, sound, wired network, remote control).
For those who have models based on s905, I recommend to try dtb files from Tronsmart Vega s95.
my box is mecool m8s pro+ I see Green screen with subtitles and sound
Write in detail what image, what dtb is used, what options of video you start.
How is that done? If you mean flash the aml_autoscript.zip I have done that but your image doesn't even try to boot. The S82 image from Demetris says the same file system corrupt message.
You will need to configure dtb on file "uEnv.ini"

I have a Tronsmart s89 that I'm desperate to get Libreelec 9 running on. I can't boot your image for the s812 just get the corrupt filesystem. I have booted Demetris' LibreELEC-MXIII_Plus.arm-9.0-devel-20190207022938-5e27f15.img, however the ethernet doesn't work.
Any chance you might have some pointers?Update the multi-boot using the image.
arm version no 64
What model TV box and write in detail that does not work.

Update version 20190309. Fixed remote control operation for Tronsmart Vega S96 (s912)
you're s905 new kernel have no picture in Netflix
Which version of the image ?

you might be right but the real world is where things really matter as most the are involved in higher education and high level engineering tend to work in isolated none real world environments where millions of dollars of equipment and controlled environments are their workspace.
the real world which is unfortunately based on cashola tend to cut corners to reduce cost but end up with products out in the field that may eventually fail sooner as compared to things from days gone by where quality ruled rather then quantity.
its not that i don't understand your opinion or even think that your wrong i just no if somethings within reason manufacturers will release the product and in the end in most cases the enduser takes it.
Ps3-4, xbox260-new one, tons of different laptops and the list goes on and on, and even tho because of bad flow profiles not really corrected to the none lead based solder has lead to tons of graphix failures occuring before they really should have. and a large part of those actually aren't even related to bad soldering but because Nvidea decided to let the graphix chips go out into the real world when they should not have.
in Nvidea's case the real issue lays not with board level bga mount but with bad flip-chip manufacturing which was a ENGINEERED calculation prior to packaging the wafer inside the outter bonded bga carrier. People think that reheating the board/bga mount is fixing the problem when all they are really doing is overheating the bga package which is making the flip-chip connections temporarily reconnect inside the chip itself.
as i said i understand your concern but i honestly think that until people that actually own and use the board start to complain about heat related issues i think you should do yourself a favor and let the issue go as i hate when i see unending debates over unproven issues and over the years i have watched you contribute since you 1st appeared over on Freaktab doing the linux thing along time ago and would never want to see people loose respect or credibility over something like this, especially when you've earned somuch cred's over the years by helping others.Bad - > Inefficient - > Costs do not match the result - > the User is forced to pay more than he gets. The current shape and location of the radiator can be easily replaced by others and will have the same results when working. The upper location of the needle radiator is about ~40x40 mm, without painting in black. This is equivalent to the fact that I need to get from point A to point B. for this rather small light car, but impose a large truck with the appropriate costs at my expense. The rest of the shortcomings described in the topic the link.
Perhaps you are right, there is no point in explaining to those who do not want to understand. They don't want to see the graphics of HK itself, where the temperature under load of more than 70 degrees is clearly shown. Do not see the information from the user who conducted the test in favorable conditions and received almost 70 degrees in real work. They naively think, that a powerful processor s922, all buy exclusively for moreover, to look "movies" under minimum overstretched. It does not occur to them that the main purpose of a powerful processor is to work with large loads, and for "cinema" a minimum system based on s905x2 is enough.
p.s.
Therefore, it makes no sense to waste time on idle chatter, it is better to use this time for useful work on the production of new images.

You can comment coolling solution. You wrote it is bad and tkaiser wrote it is good. Also numbers from real devices concur him. So why are you saying it is bad design? Do you even have this device to make some tests yourself? Or you just saying something to say something...
Do you think that in order to perform a thermal design calculation it is necessary to personally have a device ? Do you think a design engineer who designs a nuclear reactor should personally visit the inside of a working nuclear reactor to evaluate how it works, what kind of temeprature and other paramters ? Or the engineer who designs and calculates a heating system of a house, has to personally visit the house, touch all walls, to measure all parameters of materials of walls and only then will be able to execute thermotechnical calculation of a design ? To calculate the operation of the cooling system on N2 is not required to have it available, there are physical laws and methods of calculation that allow to perform with sufficient accuracy the analysis of how the design will work. There are also data from HK on the results of tests, there is information from real users who performed real work (at the request of users from the Armbian forum) and who provided the results. Based on this, it is not difficult to accurately calculate what and how it works. But again, if your information is not fake, the issue with the cooling system on N2 can significantly change for the better. It would be nice if HK would also add to the user manual the position of the device for users (radiator up). How users will implement this recommendation is another matter. The main thing is that HK would provide users with the right recommendations for working with their equipment.

Leaked info: After all skepticism about SoC temperatures and having radiator on bottom side of the ODROID N2 device company decided to make improved version: ODROID N2+ with legs. Sadly the price will be little higher because of bigger manufacturing costs. But anyway, now we can have even better device!
If it's not a fake from one of the users who added the legs himself, then such a HK solution could have two positive points.
1. Elimination of design errors at the design stage.
2. An indicator of HK's attention to constructive criticism.
If it really is the info from HK, then respect them for these moments. Adding a package with 4 silicone feet to the package does not require large costs and further improves the stability of the entire structure on a smooth surface. If desired, HK can still make small changes that can improve the functionality and consumer properties of the equipment and reduce production costs.

to be honest i was not aware of the comments that were made on cnx-software as i very rarely watch that site, and if thats whats been going on i would agree its not really the right thing to do as it effects opinions formed by others while they are looking for information, so i can understand how stuff like that can rub others the wrong way.
By the way, I recommend reading. I think you will be interested to know some nuances.
Announcement : Odroid N2 - General chit chat - Armbian forum
It is better to have the info from the source. Read from this comment and below ...
ODROID-N2 Amlogic S922X SBC Coming in April for $63 and Up
PS to other questions with reasonable arguments, I will answer as time becomes available.

Update LE 20190304 images.
Fixed DTB for Tronsmart Vega S95 (s905), work LAN, HDMI sound, remote control. To use the remote control, you need to configure the file you are using (rename the existing file in the image), as described earlier in this topic.
Please note, for all those who have s905, if you have a very outdated u-boot, do not try to install in eMMC. This can lead to the destruction of the u-boot and the TV box will turn into a brick, which will need to be restored via USB Burn Tool.
