CoreELEC 21.0-Omega_alpha1 Amlogic-ne Discussion

Check this thread, just discussed the very topic.
U need to use the 21 ne nightly build for the updated s905w2 dtb.

A post was merged into an existing topic: CoreELEC 20.1-Nexus Amlogic-ng Discussion

H96 Max X4 Android 11 Amlogic S905X4 device with 4GB RAM and 100Mbps Ethernet port

CE21NE works great from microSD with DTB sc2_s905x4_4g.dtb file
VFD and Remote also work fine with the files in the repository

Thanks for the awesome NE branch

Vim4 not booting neither of nighties. Stuck on khadas boot logo.
I suppose its somehow refers to hdmi output, cuz it did boot when connected to pc display

Vim4 have a UART header, make a log. I just worked today with vim4, booting fineā€¦

Sorry, im not that advanced to make logs with uartā€¦
Thing is - 20.1 works fine.
21alpha boots fine when using a pc display and installs correctly.
At the same time installed 21alpha doesnā€™t boot on a regular 1080p tv, as well as setup of 21alpha, which stucks on khadas logo

I will ask tomorrow my today foggy magic ballā€¦
:innocent:

All right, Iā€™ll disassemble the chips on the board, analyze the response of semiconductors to signals, and send a printout of the punched card. Just asking the developer - is too easy and funny)

Sounds like youā€™ve been around long enough to know some stuff, why dont you join the team and help?

Issue fixed in 0606 nightly

Hello, I have a same 4GB RAM device however supplied remote (same as your one on the picture) is not working in Coreelec from the start, it works fine in Android. Have you done additional configuration other than SD card flashing & dtb.img copying ? Thanks

EDIT: It works after configuring rc_maps.cfg i.e. adding H96 MAX X3 files

X96Max+ Ultra with w1-aml chip. WIFi stopped working again on the NE21 nightly 20230620. The last time this happened was due the Intel WPA supplicant that was added and later reverted to make it work.

Rolling back to 20230616 nightly get the wifi working again

Can you please check. Thanks

is there any downsideside of the ā€œon the fly conversionā€ of DV Profile 7 FEL to profile 8.1? Will the bug in the new kernel, which prevents dv natively be player, be fixed anytime soon?

I wondered the same, not sure I fully understand the whole mel/fel thing when it comes to UHD bluray remuxes for instance

With Fel conversion you lose a lil quality and brightness since the Fel layer expands it. No bug not implemented in driver by AMlogic.

any information about why the new kernel driver doesnā€™t have support for fel 7? It seems to have worked with the old kernel. Did they share any plans to implement it again in the future?

AMlogic doesnā€™t want to support it.

to badā€¦ so that means it will never be supported natively again? or is there any chance the CE tteam could do this on their own?

Search the forumā€¦

We spent already 1-2 weeks of debugging about this issue but found nothing.
When you can give us more free time we can debug again.

What I know it should just work.
