Ok, I found a clip, I got audio drop outs over HDMI, my GMKTec G2 also has Displayport and that with an active DP 1.4 to HDMI 2.1 adapter worked fine with no drop outs. I have a separate issue though where I get no display (over hdmi or dp) if going via the Denon amp unless I unplug and replug a few times or boot to the bios, but I've not really found a pattern, sometimes I get the boot logo and then lose picture, sometimes I get no picture at all so that's a show stopper for me so not sure where to go from there. I only get it with the Denon and not via the tv direct but that makes it unusable for me even with the Displayport work around, I can't find talk of others having the same though.

Are there any test files knocking about? My N100 has HDMI and DP (and I have an active HDMI converter) so would be good to test with our Denon 1800, thanks.

michael123 Can you let me know if they work after the LSPCon update. I have a Coffeelake setup which just will not work with HBR Audio in Linux but is fine in Windows (Seems quite a few people have this issue). I changed from the internal LSPCon to a new Club3D CAC-1088 on the Displayport but although this is consistent/reliable it still does not work with HBR Bitstream in Linux. Some people have suggested that LE10 has less issues with LSPCons but that is not an option for me.
Seems to work fine, old Sony amp correctly identified Dolby True HD with pass through over HDMI. Running Libreelec 11.0.6 (latest). Gone back to direct to HDMI direct to TV and optical for audio now. Obviously lost out on passthrough/hbr audio (normally 5.1 will do for us) but gained 4k/hdr so swings and roundabouts.

I have a NUC6CAYS which has a J3455, it was like $35 from ebay, it has built in 32GB EMMC that I run libreelec on and it happily streams 4k hevc/h265 hdr rips, the biggest I've tried is 135GB and it was fine (you will most likely need to update the hdmi firmware in windows). The inbuilt IR works with my RC6 media remote too and I got a barrel to USB C adapter to power it (I have two but one didn't have a PSU).

I'll see if I can in the next few days, our amp isn't HDMI 2.0 capable so we run the nuc direct into the TV and use optical out for the audio, but I'll see if I can give it a go through the amp, it'll just be 1080P, but that won't matter for the audio.

Actually, NUC 7-13 technical and warranty support has moved to ASUS now (they bought it). There is a link as I recall when searching the NUC section on Intel's download center.
To find my Intel NUC in Asus support site I had to search on my model number.
It doesn't look like everything is over as yet (I didn't see my HDMI firmware listed but know Intel had it earlier in January). But for example I found the HDMI firmware for a NUCI7DNH.
Offered in case it helps.
That's great thanks, I've spent ages looking and couldn't find a trace of 1.79.1.1 anywhere other than the odd reference to some CVE security issues, no changelogs to see what it resolves but I've got a second NUC6CAYS on the way so will update both when the 2nd arrives.
-
I tested 1.78 a while back, seemed to help at the time:
Thanks, I'll grab it from softpedia, it's weird but Intel have pulled all hdmi firmwares other than for the nuc6 (maybe migrated them to windows update, I'm not sure.

Now it is solved: TrueHD and DTS-HD passthrough to my Denon under Win 10 and Librelec!
An update to HDMI Firmware for LSPCon 1.79.1.1 was the solution.
NUC7ixDN-HDMI_FW_Update_Tool-1.79.1.1

➢ Enable Dolby Digital (AC3) transcoding ➢ OFF
➢ Dolby Digital Plus - EAC3 ➢ ON
➢ DTS capable receiver ➢ ON
➢ TrueHD capable receiver ➢ ON
➢ DTS-HD capable receiver ➢ ON
Old thread but you used the nuc7 firmware on a nuc6? Where did you get 1.79 have you still got a copy? The latest Intel have is just 1.77 for the nuc6, they don't have any hdmi firmware listed for the nuc7 or nuc8 and the latest softpedia have is 1.78.

If anyone else is looking, I took a chance on this for about half the price I could find locally, works great. Stock HDMI/cheap adaptors do 4k/24hz no hdr. This does 4k/60hz and hdr, $16 + possible tax.
-
I'd also be in support of this, just tried to boot the iso to install Libreelec on a new PC and got the same error, I've not got a spare memory stick to hand and the other 15+ iso's I have all work great off my Ventoy stick, adding the kernel module would be a great help.

You will have to use an active DP to HDMI 2.0 converter.
Thanks, do you reckon this one will work? It doesn't say active but says displayport 1.4 and hdmi 2.0 as well as 4k 60hz and kenable are generally decent in my experience.

I've been offered an itx PC with a ASRock B560M ITX/AC Mobo and an Intel 10100 (Comet Lake/UHD 630), I know I need LE11 for HDR support, I've noticed that the HDMI is only 30hz at 4k, but the displayport is 60hz at 4k. Are there any downsides if I use the displayport out to HDMI on my TV to get 60hz? I presume I'd still get 4k/HDR/Audio etc. Ideally I'd like to avoid having to buy an 11th gen CPU with 60hz HDMI instead. I know 10th gen doesn't have AV1 support but that's not an issue for me.
Cheers.

That is my bad. I updated the add-on to allow an index of 7.
Please replace the settings.xml (or just overwrite the whole folder) and try again.
A new driver will be ready soon, which doesn't require per-device DTBs, only a simple configuration file with all that's needed.
But with the current driver, I think that DTBs have not changed since 8.90.4.
Thanks, no joy though sadly, setting Index 0 - 7 blanks the first digit of the time. Would a vid using the test script help? Still no icons either.

1. Common Anode should be on. As you can see digits that way, albeit they're upside down.
2. To turn digits right way up, change the display type to something else. (0, 2, 3 have the same orientation, 1 is 'up-side down').
3. What remains is to play with the indexes to find the correct index for each digit (and icons). The numbers in the linked post are a mere suggestion.
Index 0 represents the icons.
Index 1 Hours x10.
Index 2 Hours.
Index 3 Minutes x10.
Index 4 Minutes.
Perhaps values above 4 are valid, try them out.
Edit: I suspect that an index setting of 7, 3, 4, 5, 6 might work.
Thanks, made some good progress. I now have the time mostly working using a Display Type of 0. Values of X, 3, 4, 5, 6 have got the time working(20 39), but it has no colon in the middle and no icons still, I only have an index setting of up to 6, so I couldn't set the first value to 7, and 0-6 didn't work for it. Let me know if you need anything else, also as I used a DTD you attached somewhere else, what do I do if I need to update my build, keep using the old DTB?
Thanks again for the help so far.

Make sure that Common Anode = checked.
Please post a picture with it both checked and unchecked.
I've attached some pictures with it on and off. I also tried playing with the numbers mentioned by Iceman but didn't have much luck, it just changed the position of numbers and with no reference of what was what it was hard to work out where they should be. The screen went through the below (I missed some, changing every minute).
First value:
E
H
5
0
Example of some of a set:
55
59
5L
58
56
00
Thanks

Please look at this post:
LED (VFD) Displays in LibreELEC
Try playing with the different settings, one of them should get it working.
Thanks, any ideas where I start, I've installed it fine now have a wifi icon but the clock is still scrambled, changing the display type didn't seem to do anything and the other values have so many combinations it could take me days to try them all. I tried the ones in that post and all it did was added an Ethernet icon even though Ethernet isn't connected.

You were helping me in the main S912 thread but it's more relevant in here.
I tried the dtb, the screens now lit up but it's garbled, the 'FD628 Display service' didn't make a difference, the screen is the same with/without. The top of the J (far left), is blinking on and off, the rest changes a little each time I reboot but is always static, the pause seems to have gone off now. Pic attached
If we can get it working great, if not it isn't a huge issue for me. Would be cool if we could get it to show elapsed time of what we're watching.

You can check in Google you device model and network speed for it.
You can boot to android and check speed to your router (if it has 1GB ports)
And choose q200 for 1Gb or q201 for 100MB
It works with Q200 (although not the LCD screen, not a major loss). This link on Freaktab says Q200 & Q201 are both Gigabit so I'm not sure the difference.

Ok so I have the DTB and have opened it in Notepad++, it says gxm_s912m82_2g is this a new device? DTB attached, be good if we could get the LCD working, it's a Kingbox K3 made by leelbox, wifi and Bluetooth work with Q200, I've not tested the lan yet.
