Homatics Box R 4K Plus

Unfortunately, the Back to the Future series cannot be played in full quality without using the FEL: [link]

I don’t understand what you mean? They play fine for me and with Dolby vision.

The brightness get expanded via FEL, an example: https://slow.pics/c/JMpkEPfU

Please try again with tomorrow nightly

Does the Dune version have same LED like Homatics?
Only diff is the µS slot?

The same LED yes, controlled also on the same way under Android TV settings.

Someone have this Nokia 8010 as well?

If yes, please use this attached DTB , rename it to dtb.img and place on COREELEC partition.
If the device is booting CE please run dmesg | paste.

Guess you have me at a loss, I have no clue what you are talking about. I don’t know anything about FEL, MEL or anything else pertaining to Dolby Vision (or any other video codec either).

Also, would it pertain to the TV?

To all Homatics/Dune/G2/Nokia users:

Tomorrow there will be a new DTB in the update.
Update normally with tomorrow nightly. Then manually copy sc2_s905x4_sei_smb_280.dtb as dtb.img on COREELEC partition. If not it will not be updated in future as the name changed.

It’s now one DTB for all of these devices with the same PCB.

Working now Thanks

Who has Nokia 8010 to do one simple test for me?

Upgrade with tar, then replace dtb.img, does not boot, only homatics logo. The same goes for a fresh install of 0425. How to solve it?

Download the tar here:
https://relkai.coreelec.org/?dir=Amlogic-ne/ce-21/archive

Extract the Homatics DTB from there and use it as dtb.img. Then it should boot again.

When booted please run this CMD on SSH:
fw_printenv | paste

Also please follow this guide and share your Android DTB:

Upgraded both the dune and Homatics with multi dtb . All good

from a running system via ssh, where is the new dtb and the coreelec parition found?

the entire lore of these boxes is Licensed Dolby Vision, if you have no idea what it is then why did you buy this box?

seems like there is some googling in your future
