balbes150 so, I've built your latest 17.3 and now have gotten it to partially work with my bcm4335 S812 M8S. I am using a patch that adds the dts file from the stock android.
Steps:
- Rename s805_autoscript to aml_autoscript
- Manually mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 and then mount SYSTEM to sysroot (how do I automate this? I'm not new to Linux but am new to LE), exit, and then boot
Playback and wired networking appear to be working perfectly, wireless networks did not appear in the setup menu but the interface appears to be working, which is strange...
I also need to get the remote.conf from my stock android as the volume buttons don't currently work as well.
Video and audio quality appear to be be better (much better) than they were in Android. The strange thing is that these boxes' dts files say they are 1G devices, but then the android kernel shows 2GB at boot - think it may be some kind of Chinese knockoff thing there? My only other guess is that perhaps half of that is saved for vram?
Help me get the boot mounts setup and I can put in a pull request.
Work in progress: this seems to add proper working support for the bcm4335 m8s, mostly,… · ilikenwf/LibreELEC.tv@c05fc84 · GitHub
Also, hypothetically, if I wanted to get the retroarch stuff working, is it just pulling that stuff into the build, or does it go deeper than that?
Thanks for all your work!
