[ROM] OpenELEC for Amlogic-based TV boxes (M8, MXQ, TV110, MX2/G18)

[digihoe]

Would it be possible to add support for the PCTV Triplestick 292e tuner also?

Thanks for your help

Please add support for all dvb devices supported by mainline openelec (or atleast DVBSky960, tevii660, af9015, PCTV 290).

Is it possible to also add oscam and usbserial.ko, pl2303.ko, ftdi_sio.ko?

Keep up the great work!

Thank you Sir.

Can someone tell me what steps are needed to enable these wifi usb dongles.

I have:
150Mbps Wireless IEEE802.11b/g/n nano USB Adapter
EW-7811Un

Not sure if that one is supported from above drivers.

I did the update.

Once on I inserted the USB dongle. I see nothing.

Connection settings I see nothing related to the usb wifi dongle.

Thanks.

Does this work with the square remote yet?

I want to guess that based on post #315 the answer is yes.

Props to you, CodeSnake, for responding to such a wide assortment of user requests. Yours is a fabulous service.

What are the prospects of getting HDMI-CEC working? None of the other Linux builds that run on the M8 has succeeded. Do we have a chance here?

In fact it works but causes a kernel crash after a while, so it is disabled by default. I'm working to fix this issue.

That's very encouraging news. Fingers crossed for your success. If you bring this off, yours will be the most complete Linux build around.

I have trouble making it discoverable as a UPnP renderer... is this a problem on my side or a known issue? I have everything enabled in settings/service/UPnP...

Unfortunately I cannot help you with this, because I never used tvheadend. Maybe someone who uses tvheadend will help you.

code heads up on when OE is not active for while it become unresponsive via remote or usb mouse removing the power cord is only option.
