Amlogic-no Discussion

Feedback:

Generic unbranded W2 Android TV box with S905W2 SoC using s4_s905w2_2g.dtb

System did automatic upgrade to 20250210. Didn’t have a lot of time for testing and didn’t get log files. Didn’t get any lockups requiring the power cord being pulled but it generally seemed quite sluggish with button press and menu navigation delays.

Because it’s an S905W2 I would bet. Isn’t it 20+% less powerful than even an S905X4?

Next small sad bug: bad timezone for central Europe on CE22NO with set country Slovakia (in winter time it now showed in coreelec wrong extra 1 hour back). For comparation on CE21NG is it ok.

All member states switch to summer time on the last Sunday in March and back to their standard time (‘winter time’) on the last Sunday in October.

Latest release 20250212 on 905x3 box cant boot normal, reboot to safe mode. Reverted back to 20250204, i did not test 20250210

Works fine using CoreELEC-Amlogic-ne.aarch64-21.1.1-Omega-Generic so I doubt that it is just because it is S905W2. Also worked better with 20250204 and 20250205 so definitely something to do with 20250210.

https://archive.coreelec.org is back online, please try what is last correct working version.

With the TOX-3 S905X4 it does not return from sleep mode (suspend), instead it just restarts the BOX.

I still cant get my WMC remote(s) HP remote etc.to work consistently with NO. Perfect with NG and NE.
I asked earlier if there is a way to “copy” embedded remote files from the other builds into NO or can show me how?.
I use the HP remote on all my boxes as it works without mods with all previous releases with a lot of extra key functions. ( I set my box up in Harmony to be a Windows pc and the Harmony remote also works on the 2 other builds but is problematic on NO.
I looked here for WMC remotes but couldnt see any. Actually I dont understand what to look for there :frowning:

I did a fresh install of CE22-NO on my AM8 Pro and have an issue with the NFS browser when adding a source for the library, it won’t even try to open anything and probably just pops these lines into the Kodi log. I have not changed anything related to my network or the NFS server itself, the IP of the connecting box is the same as before, and the NFS connection did work fine with CE21-NE.

2025-02-15 10:45:00.012 T:1453 debug : NFS: Context for not open - get a new context.
2025-02-15 10:45:00.012 T:1453 debug : NFS: version: 3
2025-02-15 10:45:00.012 T:1453 error : NFS: Failed to mount nfs share: (Failed to start connection. Invalid address:. Can not resolv into IPv4/v6 structure.)

2025-02-15 10:45:00.014 T:1453 error : CGUIDialogFileBrowser::GetDirectory(nfs://) failed

Any ideas?

EDIT: Looks like I can access the shared directory just fine if I add it manually as a source without using the browser.

After updating to the latest nightly (20250215) appears “Missing partition ‘super’ on eMMC! No media playback possible!” and the playback is really not possible.
I have CoreELEC installed on Micro SD card (not internal eMMC).

Going back to 20250211 fixed the issue.

same problem on TOX3
Going back to 20250214 fixed the issue.

Super partition missin on GT-king II, going back to 20250214 fixed it.

Same issue here. Going back to 20250214 also worked.
TOX3 S905x4, CoreELEC installed on Micro SD Card.
I tried installing the Slimbox ATV Android ROM but it made no difference.
Once you install 20250215 version of CE, you get the “super partition not installed”, and playback is not possible.

Hmmmmmm

No issues here on

Tanix tx5 plus deluxe S905X3
Kinhank G1 S905X4-J
X96 X10 PRO S928X-J
