Would you recommend a S905 instead of the S905x? If so which one would you buy? There are almost 1000 different manufacture with the S905 Chipset :(.... Belink ... Wingogo.... I have no clue which one to choose

I have a S905 Box and Im'very happy with it. I tried in the past a S905x box but the PQ was inferior, now I don't know.

Hi I've been looking around for a reasonably priced tv box and spotted the Zedo Mini M8S Pro T95N Google Android 6.0 TV BOX 2GB 8GB 4K Amlogic S905 Quad Core. Anyone know if it's compatible with Libreelec and which version please? Thanks

But you haven't answered mate. Is now a better option a S912 instead of a S905X for LE?

What about the video quality? It's the same 905(x) vs S912?

Thanks

Hardware video decoding is handled in AMLogic chipsets by a co-processor called the VPU (Video Engine (AVE-10)) - Video processing unit

There are no problems with Hardware video decoding on the S912.

The GPU co-processor is independent of the VPU. The GPU and its drivers draws the Graphic User Interface (GUI). This GUI can overlay on top of whatever video the VPU is decoding in the background.

kszaq's S912 LibreELEC releases prior to LE 8.1.7 had Kodi user interface screen tearing due the less than optimal Android GPU video drivers being used. They were to slow to draw the whole GUI without noticeable tearing. Those GPU drivers have now been optimised to fix screen tearing.

Then you have the octa(8) core CPU itself in the S912.

Add the CPU + GPU + VPU together and a few other bit and bobs and you and up with what is called a System on a Chip aka SoC.

All those core's added together in the SoC produce significant heat. Chipset cooling and heat dissipation is more important than ever on S912 devices.

Thank you very much for the explanation. Now I understand the S912 works in LE 8.1.7.

Thanks ;);)

Now, it's a good option buy a S912 HW for Libreelec or still better the S905 HW?

Thanks

4 Bit's And if you don't have 12 bit video's, than probably nothing

For 10 bits imodify autostart: echo '444,10bit' > /sys/class/amhdmitx/amhdmitx0/attr ?

Thanks

Update your box, and add the command in your autostart.sh

If you don't know how to edit/create the autostart.sh, then search this forum for "autostart.sh"

What are the diference the 444 12 bit with the standard autostart.sh?

Thanks

Hi, sorry for the delay, I found little information about the Zidoo A5s and compatibility with libreelec. The main devices, however, remain: wetek play2, minix neo u1, mini M8S II, MECOOL KI PRO TV, MECOOL M8S Pro +, Beelink MXIII II. From what I've read now on the forum the android box that runs best with libreelec is wetek play2.

If you don't need a DVB-T or DVB-S integrated in the device the bests options are Minix U1 or Wetek Hub.

Hi! I have a S905 box with Libreelec 8.16 and I'm very satisfied, In the past the S905 boxes had better PQ (much more smooth) than the S905X (I had one but I returned). In the Libreelec 8.16 is the same or the PQ still remain better in the S905 boxes?

Thanks for all.
