Can you post the link for that “trick” ?
Sure, here it is

Have you played with the CEC settings? I am not in front of my device right now, but there are settings you can adjust on what the device does with various states. I set mine to be dumb and do nothing, it stays on all the time and doesn’t attempt to power on or off.
Turning off CEC wake up settings worked the way I wanted, the ugoos no longer turns on when I hover over the hdmi input with the LG remote. But the downside was that even after selecting the hdmi input manually, the ugoos still wouldn’t turn on, I had to press the power button on the device itself every time. So now I’ve plugged its adapter into a power strip with a switch connected to the ups and I just use the switch to power it on and off.
For lazy guys like me, there are cheep “Wireless Remote Controlled Switches with Socket” that do such jobs perfectly ![]()
Some variants use mobile phone for controling on/off function…

am6b plus connect to denon amp x3700h no DV option but direct connect to panasonic oled tv have
i use latest coreelec 21.2 any setting or which version is work
I have an LG G5 and for me TV-led DV working. For info, the TV is connected to an Arcam AVR21 which then goes to the AM6B+. I’m though seeing a color space mismatch which another post concluded was ‘normal’ i.e. I’m expecting 2020 but getting 709.
This info you get is completely irrelevant. You are indeed getting 2020, or your colors would be all f*cked up with 709; so just forget about this wrong but irrelevant info and enjoy.
@htctyo also relevant for you
Not sure I agree here. Colour decoding will be wrong. For material moving between them, the right matrix must he used to twist the coefficients. There are test patterns that one cane use to test this. For instance, between 601 and 709 you could see a clear issue with green (when using a test pattern!) if the wrong decoding was used. Does it produce a normal looking picture, I’d say yeah as the error is more subtle with actual real live material but the colours will still be off.
Source: myself and a video processor that can force the decoding matrix. I can send (SDR - implied) material. Then the source device must twist correctly from 601 to 709 if it is sending out HD-resolution.
If the source device would display a colour bars pattern, the colours must match those of the VP pattern, which is overlayed on the top half of the screen. Otherwise there is either wrong matrix at play or the source device does something iffy.
On the VP I can force its pattern to be decoded with the wrong matrix and I believe, from memory, the green would become too dark.
This is further made obvious if you measure the colour error with a colour probe. The ΔE measure of colour error would be quite substantial.
But @wilks is talking about TV-led Dolby Vision. This signal is sent out to the TV or AVR using RGB tunneling. Most TVs that I know of, show “RGB BT.709” on their info screen in this case. But the TV will recognize that there is a DV signal inside the RGB tunnel and decode it properly.
I’m not sure if video processors such as the one you are using show different information in case of RGB tunneling, but I’m sure you will be able to answer that ![]()
The info, RGB BT 709, that any TV (including LGs) displays, is not relevant nor does it affect in any way the TV is processing tunneled RGB 8 bit signal. If DV is present in the tunnel, it will always be correctly processed by BT2020 color decoding, and will incorrectly report/display BT709, because it’s simply too stupid ![]()
I can confirm that I’m seeing DV content without issue with the ‘DV’ badge showing in the corner, plus the LG G5 TV is also showing the DV settings when I open the setting panel on the TV. My comment was just an observation after putting up the detailed video info on the screen during playback. The source is 2020 but the info shows 709, but I can now see that this is just a mistake and all is well. Thanks.
@MauriceW67 ah my bad I should have picked up on that. Nah it’s an older VP the new ones are for the richer crowd:-). TV have gotten so good they mostly are not needed.
A post was merged into an existing topic: Help, support CPM build
I saw it and hope it will be updated to CE soon
Confirm that CE-NO 0820 already includes this PR
wake on lan is notoriously unreliable here, sometimes it works, most of the time it doesn’t. doesn’t matter if it’s suspended or shut down. i am using a wired ethernet connection but it is across VLANs.
any ideas?
ugoos am6b+ running coreelec 21.2-omega
Hello everybody.
I’m new to this forum.
I would like to buy a Ugoos AM6b+ to install CE Amlogic NG 21.2 Omega, the last stable version and I think the last one for kernel 4.9. (being at EOL, development continues on kernel 5.x)
So, to summarize, up to now do you comfirm the CE I mentioned has no issues in playing 4k titles, especially mkv?
I have read the installation guide written by Astrotrain ( [Guide] S922X-J (Ugoos AM6b+) CoreELEC installation and FAQs ).
According to you, the time is right (so the software is mature) to buy the kit, because we are at the final stage…
I’m interested especially into the functionality of playing DV 7 FEL.
Are there some issues not resolved?
Further questions:
a)I can stop automatic upgrades (if there will be any compatible with Ugoos AM6+ in the future) of CE, correct?
Just to have that version I mentioned (CE Amlogic NG 21.2 Omega), nothing new.
b) this link:
https://github.com/CoreELEC/CoreELEC-Addons/tree/Amlogic-ng/21.1.0/arm/tools.jre.zulu
is broken (is specified inside the guide of user Astrotrain), to enable Blu-ray, menu support
Is there another valid link?
Cheers,
