I am keen to see a public URL to the sources of this so-called LibreELEC image? .. or are Tanix just another cheap GPL violating manufacturer?

People in our forum have exorcised Android from their devices so won't be much use for detailed comparisons with a specific custom ROM image they are not using. Go experiment and make your own decision.

Or use the manual update function in the settings GUI (no need to use the console). The update mechanism works fine so there is some kind of local issue for your device or network (including ISP).

I'm confident there is a bug in the LE settings agent error handling code for a long time now, but as none of the staff appear to have hardware or USB dongles that exhibit the issue it remains unresolved. The LE settings add-on has its own dbus agent so the connmanctl console agent being off or on is irrelevant to the problem.

Current C2 releases are aarch64, future C2 releases and kszaq current release are 'arm' so the update process aborts. Instructions on how to override that are shown on-screen under the error/abort message.

Most people with large numbers of devices PXE boot them. It doesn't result in config files being replicated, but it does result in all the config being stored in a single server, which makes updates and the process of changing config easier.
-
Auto update works fine. If it is not working for you, you are either using some kind of community release that has no update available, or the issue is localised to your environment.

Kodi auto-detects the available hardware at boot so it sounds like a race condition where the soundcard drivers are not always loaded before Kodi starts and thus it cannot enumerate the previously configured card and defaults back to HDMI which is available. Put a startup delay in LE settings (aka wait for network) of 5-10 seconds and see if the problem goes away.

All Windows versions since Vista should use SMB2 natively.

No idea as I don't use it. You'll also need to check with one of the S912 image creators to see if they build it in their repo.

It's probably worthwhile pointing out there is no single config.ini file for our distro, so even if TFTP did work it's still not going to be the magic thing that configures lots of boxes for you.
-
NAS boxes sit in the network, the Android/LE box accesses over Ethernet (ideally) or a good wireless connection (less good).

Any idea if this will work?

Not right now. However, the lead developer for our current RK work is also the lead developer for OpenPHT so I'd expect it to get some love at some point in the future. No schedule though

Master branch builds with pre-Alpha Kodi Leia and newer ffmpeg are in circulation for most hardwares. Go test.

The only other thing I can suggest is trying LE on some other kind of hardware which might prove that the crappy old 3.14 kernel that's used on Amlogic boxes is at fault. It's a long shot though. I wouldn't personally buy more/newer drives. I'd get a NAS and put everything in the network where life is easier and fewer cables are required.
