I can not even get the newer 8.01 builds to work. Only the 061216 8.00 buiild will startup.
When I put any 8.01 build in the folder \update on my Minix X8-Plus and reset the player, LibreElect seems to install fine.
But each time it hangs on the first start-up, during the initializing.

What am I doing wrong?

You need to remove all settings and Addons from the old version, they may interfere with the launch.

Thank you all for testing.
I have a request - when describing the model, be sure to specify chipset. To specify the firmware version (4.4 , 5.1 etc). For those who have not working WiFi - please provide the output of

udevadm info /sys/bus/sdio/devices/sdio*

fw_printenv

**balbes150** · [S812] MIII Plus 2Gb\16Gb eMMC **balbes150** February 26, 2017 at 8:04 PM

Add the correct file "remote.conf" in the directory "/storage/.config".

Please to those who have not working WiFi and BT, check for the latest version of the image 20170226.

I think that to build an image with support for 4335 I need the dtd from Your TV box.

And show the output of fw_printenv (to connect via SSH and run the command "fw_printenv").

You sure you updated the system ? File img.gz is to record on SD and USB.

**balbes150** · [S812] MIII Plus 2Gb\16Gb eMMC **balbes150** February 26, 2017 at 10:16 AM

Option LE , I tried to add 4335.

Do I understand correctly that version 20170225_1 on Minix not working WiFi ? What about WiFi version 20170223 ?

I don't have a .img with working wifi to upgrade for.

IMHO better to spend the time and understand why You have a LE does not work with external media. Then You will be able to use in the future any system from external media. What is your model of TV box ? Describe in detail what steps You perform. What media do you use ?

**balbes150** · [S812] MIII Plus 2Gb\16Gb eMMC **balbes150** February 25, 2017 at 12:55 PM

Version 20170215_1. Fixed repository Libreelec and temperature display in the system information. Added a zip archive for update.
Pay attention, I have a zip archive doesn't work. It is better to use upgrade using the tar file.

**balbes150** · [S812] MIII Plus 2Gb\16Gb eMMC **balbes150** February 25, 2017 at 8:57 AM

Update 20170225.
Checked on MIIIPlus - wired network is working, WiFi - working both range, BT works. In the settings there is items for the sound in 5.1 and SPDIF, but I have no such equipment, so can't check.

As part of your image there is a file "boot.scr" to activate the multi-boot on the Minix models.
[hr]
Attention. In the latter case the image LE in the shutdown menu has several additional items. Mode reboot into Recovery - restart the TV box to factory system Recovery. Reboot with the install LE in the internal memory, restarts the system and executes the copy (install) the LE in the internal memory (without needing to use SSH). In this setup, the internal memory will be copied all the settings that are made when you run the system from that external media. Pay attention to the installation procedure in the internal memory test and possible unforeseen outcomes. Therefore, we strongly suggest to use this function only if You will have confirmation of the correct operation of this function on Your TV box, You just know that I will be able to restore the TV box when not full-time results.

By the way, a question to those who are well versed in KODI how to bind menu items to a specific file on the media ? I studied the documentation on creating my menu in KODI, and couldn't find the check a specific file for the parameter <visible>

Built-in BT not working yet.
For the operation of the remote control you need to add the correct file "remote.conf" or in the directory /storage/.config or in the first partition (FAT) on the media.

To activate the multi-boot on Minix. You need to manually create on the SD card directory "/boot" and transfer the file "boot.src" that would be so "/boot/boot.src". After that activate multi-boot method of a toothpick.

But I just do that and ended on filesystem corruption error like I said .

Have you tried to run from a USB flash drive ?

Hey balbes! I can't get my wifi and bluetooth working on AKASO M8S. It's using a rtl8723bs combo chip.
Could you update kodi to it's latest version? There're RC versions. You're using beta version.

Thank you so so much for your efforts!

Try the latest version of the image 20170224, there KODI (RC 17.1).

Minix don't have multiboot. I tried to install LibreELEC-S812.LAN1000.arm-8.0.1.img with boot.scr in boot folder on sdcard.

Is there some reason no one will respond?

What prevents You to test it ? Perhaps others do not have such module.

Installed latest version on Minix x8h plus and no wifi. I was updated from LibreELEC-S812.LAN1000.arm-8.0.0 installed on internal flash. Also tried to dual boot from extern sdcard but stock on file system corruption error.

If You have enabled multiboot, You can use to write and run LE USB stick (for testing). They are easier to use and less mistakes.

Collected image (Test 20170223) using the latest available version of KODI. Corrected the error and included in the Assembly package media_build. I tried this option on MIII Plus - maybe I don't understand correctly, but it seemed to me that different video files, automatically frequency switching of the screen.

You can give a link to the source ? May need adjustment example. I gave the sample code, as I use at home. In other sources it can be implemented differently.

-> Studying the source code, you can learn a lot.
