Any plan to release source codes?

Any plan to release source codes?
I know that amlogic has some buildroot and other
But buildroot(with working kernel sources,....) on github will be better

Stane1983, any chance you develop an Android based firmware for this EM8 box? Since it seems you have SDK and kernel source would be nice an Android release.

Anyone know how to enable bluetooth, I tried installing bluez in command line but can't seem to get it. If not its not a big deal.

Edit:Sorry just remembered that the test box has the problem, its not related to fw...

I find lot of addons stream don't work like mashup,navi-x,FTv.
Same streams work fine in android version of same box.

Personally, I'm having headache when I have to develop any kind of firmware for devices from EM8 manufacturer (m3, mx2...). I'll build it after linux for s82, but I cant promise it will work fluent...

I completely understand you. Thanks for the answer.

This looks very promising! Especially the quick boot, low cpu and memory usage. Just XBMC for what m8
has been build for!

Question: does the installed XBMC have AMLogic hardware support?

[madweegie]

Does the linux xbmc auto switch resolution for movies on android hardware ? like 24hz etc etc
