Could you check if youtube app working smoothly? Youtube app on R68 is not smooth, frames is skipping.

I'm playing 1440p(downscaled to 1080p) & 1080p Youtube smoothly.
Don't know if it will work differently on another device.
Is there a way to check frame skipping in Youtube, so I can test if it's not seen?

Did they solve the problem of the MAC address changing on every reboot? Did they get the Dolby passthrough working via HDMI from Kodi??
thanks

You can flash your own mac address or put it into the dts file in resource.img, then it will stay the same after a reboot.
I can also modify the mac then the wifi & ethernet mac use the same address.

HDMI passthrough - I don't know, Rockchip made a lot of audio changes recently.
So hopefully if it doesn't work, it will very soon.
Kodi also has passthrough issues, as people with different devices, AMLogic, Rockchip, Nvidia shield complain on Kodi forum that they have trouble with audio.

You need to look the video carefully. Ex https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wFZfCBXw6K4

On r68, when object moves, you will see that frame is skipping

Update: Just tried to flash your img on r68, still got same issue

How do I flash my own MAC address?
thanks.

thanks.

Easiest might be to add it to your dts file
&gmac {
// pmu_regulator = "act_ldo5";
// pmu_enable_level = <1>; //1->HIGH, 0->LOW
// power-gpio = <&gpio0 GPIO_A6 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
reset-gpio = <&gpio4 GPIO_B0 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
phy-mode = "rgmii";
clock_in_out = "input";
tx_delay = <0x30>;
rx_delay = <0x20>;
+ mac-address = [3e0c7948d74e]; #Mac address is 3e:0c:79:48:d7:4e
};

The bold part is the format it should be in.
Use this tool to get your dts file - http://freaktab.com/forum/developmen...img-un-packing read the whole forum.


Or you could use this tool to flash your mac address

Thank you Mo123, your instructions worked great. I downloaded that tool that you linked to, and followed your excellent instructions and it corrected my problem of this box getting a different MAC address each reboot. The tool was in Chinese, so I went into config and changed the value from 1 to 2, saved the config file, when I opened the tool it was in English.
Now, I can boot my R68 as many times as I wish and the IP address on my network stays the same.

thanks again.

Glad I could solve your problem.

The ethernet mac is
- first read from your dts file
- then from the flashed mac from the flash tool
- otherwise a random mac is generated at each boot time.

The flash tool might be the easiest to use but can mess up your firmware if done incorrectly, then you have to reflash complete firmware again.
but with the dts file, mac can be changed and if something goes wrong, just reflash resource.img

I see so many people on Tronsmart forum complain about the random mac and they don't have a solution to fix their problem.
The problem arises because the ethernet chip doesn't have a hardware mac address and boxes shipped out isn't flashed with different mac addresses.
I think Openhour put a mac address sticker on the bottom of their boxes and also manually flashed a different ethernet mac to their OHC boxes, only company to do it.
Other companies might hardcode a specific mac address to all their boxes, it solves the random mac problem but iptv apps that require a different mac for each user then don't work.

Hope you don't mind but I had already posted on the Tronsmart website, that Mo123 from freaktab has a solution and corrected my problem.

again, thanks for your help.
