It was removed a long, long time ago. It doesn’t work with Amlogic and doesn´t work on embedded systems.
but it works well on kodi20 within slimbox system
Search the forum and you’ll confirm it was removed a long, long time ago.
Could you also test x4 NG vs NE for example? Just thinking theoretically should be more closer to the 905x2 on NG.
I want the playback to speed up in 1.5x and within sound, but you said the function was removed long long ago.
now how can I do?
Apologies as I had moved the S905X4 box to production and a newer 4K TV swapping out the old S912 box.
Odd thing happened.
After days of running fine on office LCD TV moved it to production LCD TV. Worked fine yesterday.
The box was in sleep mode / shutdown when I switched to it. IE: no clock display / no video display.
I could not wake it up so powered it off and restarted it. It did not reconnect to the Gb network via DHCP. Initially It was connecting at Gb speeds to a managed Gb switch. Changed the address to a static IP and would not connect. Didn’t bother with the Wireless connections.
Replaced it last night with the old S912 (running Kodi 18.X) and will plug in the new box back to my test LCD TV (office 42" 1080) today and watch it. I have not done anything with other purchased devices and might return them due to this issue.
Adjusted the video on the new box from 4K to 1080 and the network interface came back up. Yesterday did not change the video from 4K to 1080 and could not enable the network interface. This morning changed it back to 1080 and the network interface came back up automagically. Moved it back to office LCD which is 1080 only. Video is fine. Will leave it alone for time bean.
Now thinking that it was a thermal shutdown and not sleeping as I have no power settings set.
Update looks that the nic port is toast. Starts up then disconnects. Saw temp on display go to 50 +. Odd that this is happening after running for a few days.
CoreELEC default resolution is 1080p
On initial installation edid
Maybe is best to leave as.
I have Samsung UHD 4K
Leave resolution as 1080p
When i playback 4K content
TV automatically switches to best resolution 4K
Not sure if your LG does this
Others have reported issues with sleep/suspend mode.
Maybe is best to Power down box with generic remote
Or use Powe off System
In Power options Menu
I never use sleep mode
Of course to Each his Own
Method of Madness
Happy Testing
Thank you @freddy.
Noticed lost my message typing on tablet from inside of hospital through their firewall. What a PITA that is.
Home again for a few minutes then running out.
So having a look…it is not going on the network via built in NIC.
Will enable wifi and see for time bean what is going on with it.
Did see temps over 50 C on the LED display.
Okay
Are you ON /boot from external SD/USB?
Ethernet transceiver?
Jlxxx1
Which version CoreELEC
Etc.
50c seems a little high.
I use old laptop fan on underside
For cooling
Just got in via wireless (Ruckus WAPs).

Changed the Ethernet port address to static IP and the DHCP WLAN address changed to static IP.
Rebooted.
Gotta run out for now…did not come back to the network …IE: WLAN and LAN on reboot.
Omg i have 65-75C depends what iam doing. I dont think 50C its high On old device max 64C.
Thanks guys. Configured a static IP and shut off WLAN. Not rebooting and will let it run for a while (24 hours).
Its been on a few hours now and not playing any media; just running Kodi and screensaver.

So for now it is looking good to me. Not concerned too much with temps.
Testing ethernet next watching a movie…Gb switch 100Mb speeds…

Have you enabled the indication of the temperature at the front screen?
The photo is from HK1 Box (S905X3) but you can do the same at your TVbox.
Yes.
Checked my network connections and all is well now relating to Gb Managed switch to managed switch connection was not at Gb speeds. Reset switch and that part is good now.

iperf Done.
Watched a few movies last night and all was well. This morning the device was off and I had to restart it. I have no power settings configured. Did configure the included IR remote and it is working fine now.
Not too concerned about heat. Just the auto shutdown or sleep when I switch to another video source.
Power button is working fine on new style IR remote that came with device.
Nice!!!
Glad you are up n running
Was wondering about your first Test Results?
See you have edited Post.
Was thinking ethernet Ports on Ruckus were 100Mb
Recently discovered on My Linksys High speed Router
Ports are 100Mb only
Happy Testing
Thank you @freddy . I am using the Ethernet port on the device. The wireless Ruckus APs do have two Gb ports on them. I prefer to use Ethernet as it is all over the house.
Reason for the slow test results earlier was that the main managed switch to the TV managed switch was talking 100Mbs. I reset it and it was fine. Noticed that my Denon AVR only talks 100Mbs.
I switched the configuration of the remote to the included stock remote which is OK. I was though still using the larger MCE IR remote.
It does go to sleep / shuts down when I have the TV set off. The old box would not do this but would turn on the TV via CEC when I would press a button on the remote.
Tested HDHomerun tuner streaming just fine.
I put copper heatsink, max. temp is 62C on idle 42C. I will make some additional holes, should get another 5-10C.
But still cpu load is too high on NE version.
