    Quote from DjTeaser


    But i can't seem to get the box in recovery mode. i've tried what the first page tells me to do.
    CAUTION (S905): To boot into recovery after installing LE to internal memory use this procedure:

    • prepare a clean, FAT32-formatted SD card or USB drive
    • copy recovery.img and dtb.img from your Android firmware to SD card (don't use dtb.img for LE!)
    • use "toothpick" method to boot from SD card/USB drive

    I am not sure what you are trying to achieve with new Android Firmware ?
    But anyway here are the files to boot to recovery from LE nand install.
    Link below.
    If you look at my signature i have had this firmware before LE was installed.

    MEGA

    I create the SD card (tested using both Rufus and win32diskimager), and everything seems fine.

    What did you do about using a Device tree ?
    Your Box is what ? MiniMx 1gb / 8gb ?
    You must have missed a step along the way as the MiniMx should run on LE.

    Im in the same boat with a sunvell t95m s905x box

    You have an s905x chip so check you haven't replaced device tree as this is for the s905 chip boxes.

    It may not be Beelink-branded but comes from the same company: Netxeon.

    Correct. I posted this way back somewhere and i was even confused. HA
    I copped 3 boxes 2 of them 2gb and 1 1gb .
    All suspect eMMC but also the wired ethernet issue not hooking up after un plugging box. ALL 3 Boxes same issue.
    Wifi is crap on all of them. Just my experience. :s

    I don't received the box yet but this is the photo:

    As long as you know this is not a Branded Beelink Box.
    There is no Beelink branded firmware or anything Beelink about it.
    No Beelink Support or Beelink Firmware from Beelink Website.
    Do your Homework when buying a Box.
    There's a few people with this box.
    MiniMxG is the correct name for it and if you buy it you will see it in the firmware ID.
    Cheers. PS: I am not a fan of this box.

    Hello,

    How device tree must I use to install libreelec on my Beelink MINI MX ver 1.0 2GB/16GB ? gxbb_p200_2G_beelink_minimxIII.dtb or gxbb_p200_2G_1Gbit.dtb ?

    Thank You

    Very confusing boxes these.
    I have the black box with no Beelink Written on it.
    I believe this is what you have and it is not your fault that the name Beelink is used by some sellers.
    The MiniMx is the 1GB / 8GB version.

    Some people call this box MiniMx G being the 2GB / 16GB version.
    I used the gxbb_p200_2G_1Gbit.dtb for the same box as you.
    Please make sure you use the SD Card Install of LE and confirm everything works before installing to Nand.
    If that is what you might do.

    My mxiii is about 18 seconds.

    MiniMX using custom AppTV skin 20 seconds plus 7 more seconds for network to liven up.
    I have whinged a little about this box before. It is the slowest out of all the boxes i own.
    When restoring a previous backup from an external USB it really shows its slowness.
    I run it on Nand which should be fast.
    I can only conclude Crap eMMC .
    Just to confirm the MiniMx i have is the black with no Beelink written on it.

    It's instantly up and running, as opposed to waiting for 3 (?) splash screens and then pvr stuff to load.
    Booting from cold takes about a minute on my minimxiii until it's ready to go.

    Okay !
    Just un plugged my box and plugged it back in and timed it.
    Boots up in 16 seconds . Just to be precise how quick LE boots up.
    I don't have any PVR stuff so i can see there is a purpose for it.
    About a minute is pretty long.
    If my box took over 30 seconds to boot i would be reaching for toothpicks. :D

    I have a 1TB My Passport for Mac - all I've ever done is formatted it to NTFS in windows and slung a pile of stuff on it. Just checked and it seems fine on my Minimxiii.

    I use Paragon NTFS for Mac
    It has a really easy to use interface and works without worrying about file corruption associated with free programs.
    Libraries with individual video files over 4.2 GB eliminates Fat32 formatted hard drives.
    ExFAT is hit and miss with mounting issues outside of MacOS.

  • After restart, changed the network settings.

    Quote from envagyok


    always automatically turn back wifi setting, and turn off ethernet at libreelec settings.
    When i change again, then work, but just to another restart. Then again the wifi enabled, and ethernet disabled.
    How can i fix it?

    I have had this problem since my Pre Release LE Testing versions.
    This is a bug that i have never brought up again.
    This generally happens when you cold boot or disconnect power and then re power.
    I have no wired ethernet menu option in LE Settings when this happens.
    I have to take out ethernet cable re insert it and re boot.
    If the box has power to it all the time it never happens.
    I will try and find my post and give you link.
    Found link below. Read and see the response kszaq on that page.
    I must admit i dont like this box for more than that reason.
