Hi everybody; first of all thanks for the great work of developers…!
I would like to indicate that on my AM8 box the Nightly Build works great when installed from an SD card; Reboot to LibreELEC started with app, DV also works correctly (LG G2)
However, the Ugoos BT remote control does not work after connecting - it disconnects almost immediately; It works fine with a 3rd party remote control!
There is a new firmware for Ugoos AM8 - 1.3.7
If I install it, it won’t cause problems under CE…?

This DoVi.ko allows for 8.1 profile conversion and other DV profiles, not for FEL obtained on the AM6B+, correct?

415

That’s right - no DV FEL

Dumb question. Im looking for the Reset-button on the am8. Google didnt give me anything from my tries. All i can find is Recovery and Maskrom on the back. Is it perhaps Recovery?

420

Yes, recovery - but why don’t you use the Return to LibreElec or Return to CoreELEC apps; much easier than juggling the box…! :slight_smile:

I am extremely new to this. This is my first elec-box :stuck_out_tongue: i just came from shield pro.

So you would have to hold recovery-button Every time you start it? Then the app seems to be a good choice! Thanks

422

No, only at the first start - then CoreELEC will boot every time you turn it on; although I never turn off my boxes…!

423

Can you switch from coreelec to “ugoos” with that app? (Or how do you do it if u need to use some normal apps sometimes)

424

The Reboot to eMMC/NAND option can be found in the CoreELEC menu - and your box will start with Android…!

Can anyone try to connect the exFAT formatted usb stick to the box? Does it appear for you in the Video/Sources?

@Portisch also on all 4K media that I’m trying to play Hyperion.ng platform capture is broken. Here’s a screenshot on how it looks:
