@balbes150, your LE builds are armv8 and not armv7 as Libreelec original?

balbes150 · October 13, 2018, 9:45am

All versions of LE use the aarch64 kernel. There are two LE variants with this kernel , arm and aarch64, I release both variants (the version type is encoded in the image name).

Thanks! My question was provoked by some peace of software I was compiled for aarch64 (armv8) which is works on your builds but not on Coreelec and libreelec official.

Hello, Is it here?

balbes150 · October 19, 2018, 6:45pm

Together with @chewitt managed to collect and create a repository Addons for aarch64.

https://balbes150.libreelec.tv/addons/

The new version (20181019) of the image with the kernel 4.18 aacrh64 added repository Addons.

For all certainty:
This is VIM -only, right? Or can 20181019 4.18 aacrh64 also be used on VIM2 ?

chewitt · October 29, 2018, 8:04pm

VIM1 only. VIM2 is no-go until panfrost matures or hell freezes over and either Amlogic license the missing Linux mali blob or ARM gives it away for free.

I have no sound on SPDIF in 10.19 version. What’s wrong?

chewitt · November 1, 2018, 6:28am

S/PDIF audio support is still on the mainline kernel to-do list and a small mountain of things currently have higher priority (mostly video stuff).

Hi, i would like to buy a VIM(905x) mainly for LibreElec, i would like to get the Vim 1 Pro, but i dont know if the LibreElec support is only for the 8GB version.

Can someone confirm me if the WiFi AC module the VIM 1 Pro(16GB) has is supported on LibreElec?

Gouwa · November 6, 2018, 3:35pm

Hi Rubytux:
yes, both VIM1 versions support LibreELEC.

Have fun!

Update LE with kernel 4.19 201811123

add play 4K

numbqq · November 27, 2018, 2:29am

Hello Oleg,

LibreELEC with mainline kernel can play 4K video now?

balbes150 · November 27, 2018, 7:45am

Yes , I tried my test video, it works in 4K.

chewitt · November 28, 2018, 4:44am

NB: 4K works, but HDR media will be “washed out” as there is currently no HDR support in the mainline kernel. This is “work in progress” with a dependency on the patches Intel recently submitted being accepted into the kernel (or at least clearing the first rounds of review) allowing work to start.
