CE-NG Dolby Vision (+FEL) for DV-licensed SOCs (s905x2, s922x/z, s905x4)

Strange, I have the same device as you, with the same firmware too and I’m using the sc2_s905x4_4g_1gbit.dtb.

Can you still logon with SSH through WiFi? What do you see if you type “ethtool eth0” ?

Also, I read somewhere on this forum that you have to run “ethtool -s eth0 speed 1000 duplex full autoneg off” to get ethernet working on the Dune (although that’s not necessary in my case).

That was the first device tree that I tried. I did not know it was an issue with the drivers. So, I started testing all of my Ethernet connections.
Tried another device tree and the same thing, no connection.
Finally re-read this thread and another person had the same issue, but the Ugoos device tree worked for him and it worked for me.

I did NOT even try to test anything with WiFi.

I received my Dune Homatics box about a year or more ago. When did you receive your box?? Perhaps they have different Ethernet “cards” internally.

Mine is from April 2023. I’m in Europe and I ordered it from Amazon Netherlands.

It appears that your is “older” than mine. I really don’t want to open it up to see what hardware is inside. Getting too old and can’t see very well anyway. :slight_smile:
I ordered mine directly from Dune, as I recall.

Yes can confirm

Unreal

Ran ethtool eth0|grep -i speed

Comes back as 1000Mb/s

Wondering if there is a new pcb rev in G1, as we could not get gbit running in April… :thinking:

This is not a speed test! The chip is capable of 1gbit but only 100mbit does actually work.

There should be a 4.9 dtb for the devices soon in nightly…

My report for Nokia 8010 (kernel 5.4.242, nokia sw version 12.8.5221) regading DV FEL and using CE NG 21.1.1 (sc2_s905x4_4g_1gbit.dtb) stable on LG oled C2 tv.
Note: I was previously using NE 21.1.1

  • DV FEL works via the sample Dolby Vision FEL Test Samples https://kodi.wiki/view/Samples :slight_smile:
  • ethernet, wifi and bluetooth work
  • HDMI CEC works
  • both starting and stoping playing a video file now takes about 5-6 seconds for any content and not just for DV FEL and 4k (ce-ne usually in a second or less)
  • skipping forward/backward during DV play, the tv picture goes black for about 2-3 seconds and then comes back and normally continues to play (no temp blackouts in ce-ne)
  • shutting down and/or restarting the device works about 50% of the time, other half of the time it just freezes/hangs. (ce-ne always works)
  • 3.5mm audio output (headphones) does not work under any audio output device setting. Tested with all the s905x4 dtbs available under NG device tree. (ce-ne works)

I used iperf3 test it get 1gbit,Isn’t it actually speed?How can I test actually speed.

try download any file test via wget command ssh
and see speed download

Run both client and server to test both ways.

When i connect direct to modem
Command returns 1000mb/s

When i connect to router with only 100mb port
Command returns 100mb/s

Good news is dedicated DTB on its way!!!

Thx Portisch :blush:

I used Curl download file.I think the speed is limited by USB2.0, because ce runing in USB2.0 port.

Dune hd box, atv12 firmware, kodi restarts alot, led to the box reboot into safe mode mode.
Ssh cant connect (it shows information at the beginning then disconnect).
Ethernet is not working (can see ip address asigned but cant connect to network)

I literally had mine shipped and I can’t even cancel my order anymore. I really wish I had AV1 and I was going to use this box forever… Now I’m sad that an option existed but I wasn’t aware of it when I bought my AM6b+ 3 weeks ago.

On the other hand the GPU in S922X is much more powerful so I can play games smoothly. Another thought is whether VS10 DV uses GPU and does it need the beefy GPU of 922x.

EDIT: seems like the DV for 905x4 is 2 days old and not weeks old… oh well technology changes.

reboot into safe mode mode , is it a hardware problem, or your keyboard is stuck

They are both great boxes. The S922X-J will feel much faster especially after you install it on the eemc and enable HO400.

You can use the S905X4 as your android/streaming box and the S922x as your CoreELEC media box. It’s a much nicer experience like that.

This discovery will enable FEL support for many more users and make it much more durable for the future.
