I'd like to add that from Coreelec 8.90.1 onwards "longpress" is supported but you have to switch from remote.xml to keyboard.xml for it to work.
Do you mean you have to create a different file for keyboard buttons? I thought it was specified in the format of the file for example <keymap><global><keyboard> and for remote it is for example <keymap><global><remote>. As I understood, with the ir-keytable method all button presses where interpreted as keyboard inputs. Or am I wrong?
The good news is Martin is gradually adding support for the s812 to the kernel mainline. Now you can use s812 as a server (there is no HDMI output yet).
Nice to hear the mainline kernel for the S812 is also getting shape. Your armbian build made me dust of my M8S. Now I have to find the proper DTB. Hopefully HDMI will be functional soon.
do you use the same approach as the libre-computer-project: Mali Opengl on the libretech cc s905x using GBM with LibreELEC Kodi · libre-computer-project/libretech-linux Wiki · GitHub
Would be nice to test on the Khadas VIM.
KONAMI code
I did the KONAMI code and I have the game menu. Probably my mistake is that I did a upgrade from libreelec 8. I better do a complete new install.
Doesn't work, it seems kodi doesn't see it's a game. It want's to play the file (like a movie) not launch it. I will enable the log and see what is goiing wrong.
I will try the snes9x versions this evening. Is there a way to choose which emulator to choose or do you have to enable/disable the addons first?
I tried it on coreelec, but when I want to launch a game, the systems freezes and after a while it goes back to the kodi home screen. Did only try with snes games and beetle-snes.( -> from de corelec games addons not the ones from raybuntu)
What I think is strange is that You can't choose which emulator to use, for example f you installed 2 snes emulators.
Guys just wait for my new 8.2.3 image i think i fixed the sdcard issue once and for all
Demetris,
can You implemnt it on you Lakka builds also. For some reason I can't boot the latest 2.1 version on my M8S. It hangs on the bootscreen (flower).
Balbes,
your 21/12 build works OK, does even boot from sd. No corrupted file system error.
Regarding the systemd errors on startup, according me these are modules that systemd wants to load, but probably, you integrated them in the kernel and didn't compile them as modules.
You can see which error it is when ssh'ing into the box an run following command: systemctl status systemd-modules-load.service
On my box this is the result:
-> systemd-module-load.service:

My issue is that I can power the box off from the remote but not back on. The only way I can power back on is by pulling the power cord from the back of the the box and reinserting to reset the box. I can then press the power button on the box to power it back on.
Same problem here, I have to pull out the power and back in before it starts. Didn't had this problem before.
Nice work. I only have a small problem since I updated to krypton. I have a dvd/hdd combo like this one -> USB Portable DVD/CD Writer and HDD All-In-One Combo
But when there is a cd in the tray, the hdd doesn't mount anymore. Strange as it wasn't a problem on Jarvis. I got to investigate it further, maybe it's a hardware problem that occured on the same time I upgraded to Krypton.
As I had to much issues with the 30/08 build, I tried the latest build of Demetris (just burn it to sd and added Balbes S805_autoscript). Boots fine and everything works, even my dvd/hdd combo. So something should probably be wrong in Balbes150 image.
Regarding the cpu, in Demetris image I have also constantely 1 cpu at 100%.
Jeffers,
you can download Boot.src on his github page: LibreELEC.tv/projects/S812/install at Amlogic-Krypton · 150balbes/LibreELEC.tv · GitHub
Then you did everything OK. Use your usb-stick with libreelec now to boot from. Just put it in the usb port and start your box normally (no reset button or toothpick necessary).
Works on the k-vim.
I installed your latest 20170830 build on my M8S. Everything works as expected, but I noticed the UI was so much more responsive. I thought it had something to do with changes in the kernel, but yesterday I noticed cpu2 is constantly on 100%. So probably a bug?
Now I'm in fear when upgrading cause lost all my customizations and configuration.
Any solution for backup and restore entire sd card after a broken upgrade?
I installed TWRP on my M8S. Probably it's available for MXIII also. Search on freaktab. With TWRP you can take a backup. If the libreelec update fails, you can put the backup back with TWRP.
