    Quote from kszaq


    The driver for your DVB stick is included in my build although I can't promise it'll work. I suspect if it's working with Alex's build it should also work with mine. For the next release I will include DVB drivers from Linux Backports which should broaden DVB support a lot.

    If you want to build yourself, grab source code (link is there for every build) and follow build instructions from LE Wiki. You should build for PROJECT=S905 ARCH=aarch64.


    Thanks for reply. I am building on 7.0.2.002 tag as I type...

    2 questions

    1) if I build LibreELEC.tv, I do not separately need to build a kernel from your linux repository
    (I mean correct kernel is included), right?
    2) resulting image from

    Code
    PROJECT=S905 ARCH=aarch64 make -j13 image


    will it, when flashed (dd-ed) to external sdcard, also boot from sdcard?
    (or do I need to modify kernel .config CONFIG_CMDLINE to specify such)
    I ask because when last time I built OE I had changed it to be

    Code
    CONFIG_CMDLINE="BOOT_IMAGE=kernel.img boot=/dev/mmcblk0p1 disk=/dev/mmcblk0p2 hdmitx=cecf ssh"

    Congrats with a generic s905 LE !!!

    If eventually you can post build instructions that would be awesome.

    For now I run (sometimes own built) 'alex' OE on Mini-MX-G.
    That firmware supports pvr.hts and thvheadend for my USB DVB-T stick.
    It's the dvb_usb_v2/dvb_usb_af9035 module FYI. I hope to migrate to LE, but not without same DVB-T comfort.
    If build instructions are available I might be able build such support myself.

    have a nice day
