I have a Mini M8S II (S905X) and 9 time out of 10, I get this:
"Error in mount flash...bin/sh can't access tty: job control turned off"
I have to unplug, plug the PS and pray for the box to boot.
Installed 3 times: on uSD from 003 & 006 2 via upgrade then installed with image burning tool, same results.
HD Audio passthrough no longer work and is not in the option menu anymore.
I have a 7.1 setup and tested some audio files:
Multichannel PCM support:
5,1 FLAC : PCM works fine but 7.1 PCM is displayed on the receiver.
(as expected since this is 5.1 file, nothing comes fron the rear surround speakers)
(I tested the same files on the Pi3 and everything was OK(5.1 displayed on the Receiver)).
7.1 Files:
1- "7.1auditionOutLeader v2.wav": PCM works but the Rear Surround speakers are inverted with the Surround.
Narrator says Rear Surround Left but is heard in the Surround Left.
Same thing for the Right side.
2- "7.1Ch Dolby TrueHD - Speaker Mapping Test File" (out is PCM) same thing as the Rear Surround are inverted with the Surround.
(I tested the same files on the Pi3 and everything was OK).
3- "dolby_digital_plus_channel_check_lossless-DWEU.mkv" (out is PCM) Rear Surround and Surround is played in the Surround speakers.
5.1 DD and DD+ are in PCM.
As expected since HD audio passthrough is not an option.
DTS HD plays in DTS.
Great work, thanks for all your efforts,
even with these little bugs this is much much better than Kodi on Android.
