Any working widvine build for old S905 (MXQ PRO 4K)

[Hansie]

Hello,

My box is currently running Coreelec 9.2.7 legacy (generic build)
with gxbb_p200_1G_100M_RealtekWiFi.dtb as dtb.img
this works fine, however as most know widevine stopped working on this.

I see there are nightly builds that might have fixed the widevine problem, however in there device tree folders my used “gxbb_p200_1G_100M_RealtekWiFi.dtb” is not available anymore

Does anyone know what dtb file I can use on these ? (I have tried using the one I had from the other builds but that just gives a boot loop)

Or is there any way of running coreelec 19.2 on this box ?? (it has a S905 chip)

any help is much appreciated,

thank you in advance,

Hans

Linux Kernel FAQ and Discussion

The subject of what kernel CoreELEC uses (and doesn’t currently use for example the mainline 5.x kernel) keeps popping up in other threads and ends up going in directions that get more and more off-topic for those threads. I also find myself answering very similar questions often. So I decided to start a thread to continue the discussion, so that there is one place to have that discussion. Please keep it polite.

If you want to have “newest” Kodi you will require to update your hardware.

Well, I dont realy want/need the newest Kodi ,

Like I put in my post, there are nightly updates for the “old” Kodi that fix the problem I have (widvine) however those nightly builds dont include my hardware’s dtb file anymore

So I was wondering if I could find updates dtb files for my hardware for those nightly builds anywhere ??

Any help is appreciated,

thank you,

Hans

Support (fixes\new versions) for S905 and S912 has been dropped, because these devices can only use the old 3.14 kernel, and it’s not in active development anymore.
