just an update, this seemed to work for my Dune version of Homatics box, but trying to update the standard Homatics box it won’t update it, is there an image out there for it you know of? Thanks
So, did the eMMC move. Looks like it worked?
It worked, I can see so below… and box performance under CE is noticeably faster.

do you still need to use usb after that ? can the box boot to coreelec without usb
hope we can make the box boot like am6b+. they can boot to ce without the need to use usb.
no you always need usb to boot into CE.
You say it’s faster with userdata on eMMC; would it really matter if i don’t use the Kodi DB (but mostly browse NFS) ? Once fuly loaded (which can take more time), why would storage make the system snappier in my usecase ?
Regarding FEL, my understanding is that later versions convert FEL to profile 8 on the fly; is this conversion really degrading picture quality (any pointers ?) ?
Can anyone clarify if it is possible to wake the Homatics Box R 4K Plus from power off state (e.g. WoL or HDMI CEC) or are just the models equipped with IR (e.g. Nokia) capable of that ?
EDIT: CEC requires the device to be suspended at least
In my setup (Homatics > LG SP8YA > LG B1) i ended up using a smart plug, controlled by Home Assistant which detects whenever i switch to the TV source to be the soundbar and turn the smart switch on to power the Homatics box, switch the soundbar to it’s HDMI input (from eARC). In the CEC settings, i have configured CE to switch off when the TV gets shut down, and have let most options enabled. That way I only turn it on when needed, and power cycling the smart plug turns it back on
This seems to be a bit timing-sensitive (when researching this in some cases the CEC control did not work) and i’d love a simpler solution… But at least it works.
as the Dune Homatics variant does have IR, can it be controlled in both Android and CE? I’m trying to find the correct remote.conf for the Dune but can’t find, anyone have it? thanks
I switched to the Ugoos UR02 and it has support for both IR AND Bluetooth. Not sure I still have the IR code for the stock remote, but it is available on this site.
I have this one, I think is it the IR code for the Dune Homatics.

ok, how do I get it like a remote.conf file? thanks
I guess you can just copy it and paste it into notepad on your PC and name it to remote.conf. It is just a text file with a different extension.
Edit: don’t use a wordpad or similar that adds different characters. Just use notepad or edit pad.
ok, I did that, put the remote.conf inside config folder and rebooted but still not working, do I need to do something else? thanks
That should have worked.
ok, it does not respond I have both the black big Dune remote and the smaller white Homatics.
I don’t have the large black Dune remote or the White Homatics remote, but they should work. I will try to find the link on here that has the IR and Bluetooth files for your device. I have so many of these boxes, and different remotes, I use different remotes with different boxes so, really not sure which remote file I have for the stock remote.
Here is the remote conf. right click and save as.
do I need to connect through Bluetooth? I was wondering if it works with just IR, still does not work.
Of course its works perfectly.
Copy the remote conf to your root of CoreElec installation pendrive, and reboot.
it works when I connected to Bluetooth, but not IR only, also after rebooted to Android and back to CE it stops working with Bluetooth too.
EDIT: I got it working by adding this line to autostart.sh, remotecfg /storage/ .config/remote.conf
