Odd, it probes the BT modeul but doesn't load. I'll have a poke around in the dts bits. I suspect the GXL box devices in the upstream kernel are a little unloved as the focus has mostly been on SBC board devices.

hieppo It's the dtb. I can see there is no Broadcom WiFi device in the dtsi under the &sd_emmc_a; node:

If you use the p212 dtb it should have working BT? - share the URL generated by "dmesg | paste" when using the p212 dtb and I can see.

If it works, that's fine

Alternative (earlier) fix for the same issue RE: Cannot Install/Update Addons

I'm told device wake over CEC would need some changes in the driver. I'll add it to the long list of undone things, but It's not something I can do myself - to set expectations.

It's possible to replace /etc/connman/main.conf at boot time using /storage/.config/connman_main.conf but the same is not implemented for the Bluez main.conf file. You should attempt the bind mount mglae suggested. If that doesn't work you need to self-compile an image with the changes made at build time (or implementing a similar override method to ConnMan.

Thanks for info. Is it chance that the Patch will be implementet (somehow) in Libreelec (Your) Distribution ?
If/when there is a patch, I will test it in my branch and then push it to LE. This has been ongoing for several years though so I wouldn't hold breath for a speedy resolution - although more progress/understanding on it has been reached in the last year than the previous 3-4.

HDR to SDR tonemapping is not currently implemented, so nothing to enable. It's something in the to-do list for the future.

If it's not merged upstream, it's not in the Kodi we're using.

LE11 nightlies are the only images that will run on RPi02W hardware (without a lot of jumping through unsupported hoops) .. but you'll likely run into a bug that will stop Kodi from running in the latest nightlies. The issue is known, but needs some dev attention to fix, and the devs in question (from RPi Foundation) are on PTO at the moment. So be patient and wait a week and it should be resolved. NB: RPi02W only has 512MB RAM so while it can/will boot LE11 nightlies we have no plans to formally support it (or any other 512MB devices) as Kodi Matrix/Nexus really need 1GB.

ConnMan has no method for chosing which WLAN card the tether should run on, so you may need to blacklist driver modules to disable the internal card. Once that's done, it should work, as long as the driver for the USB card supports AP modes; most do, but not all <insert usual statement about garbage realtek drivers>.

If you spend $$ on faster SD cards you may be able to empirically measure a minor speed bump and it might boot marginally quicker, but in practical terms you will not notice any real-world difference in performance. Save goes for USB3 SSD drives; they are quicker in certain tests but you're unlikely to notice much difference (and you need to hang the drive out the back of the board, which is ugly).

SSH in and "journalctl | paste" after a clean boot, and share the URL so we can see what's not right. No logs = No problem

Your AVR may support S/PDIF input at 96KHz, but I'm not sure the box will support S/PDIF output over 44.1KHz.

twilightened thread hijacking? .. and it's known, and will be solved once devs resume work in Jan, prob.

I'm user of ODROID C2 - but it don't start my USBs Disk . The ports are quite 'dead' . The hdds dont event power ON.
It's a long-time known issue with the upstream kernel, see this thread: https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-usb/msg214709.html - there is more follow-up since, but I can't seem to find the latest/follow-on thread at the moment.

If the current (hopefully temporary) issue with hardware decode is resolved I would like to resume releases for LE11 - there are still some bits missing but particularly with older GXBB/GXL/GXM hardware (which has less features to miss) it's more than usable.
I haven't seen much progress with internal DVB driver support. Availink are still tinkering with their demod driver, but most tuner drivers are out-of-tree and horrific code which will be a drag on attempts to upstream anything, and I'm not aware of anyone thinking about the missing V4L2 demux driver.
CE + TVH can work, and the IR situation is easily solved with some tape over the problem IR sensor once setup has been done. If not that, I'd go with the USB Hauppage route; their cards have well maintained upstream drivers so are low-drama.
