Kikat - Wasser Firmware for Beelink R89

[Gormar]

you should not use oc kernel in this case. Your box is not suitable for OC

But there is something strange with "beelink-r89-update-cpu1920-ddr700-gpu625.zip" archive. It contain resource and boot images what suggest that kernel is inside. In your firmwares kernel is almost always separated like in 2.0.9a version. That's why I have use overclockmatic to OC CPU, GPU, memory and unlock kernel limit.

Why can't I use OC on my box? The box freeze at the boot screen when I tried to use overclockmatic also.

I suppose that your device can not work with such high OC. You should try to set lower clocks than 1920MHz for CPU and 625MHz for GPU. I even heard that someone couldn't get RAM to run above 500MHz. Try different OC combinations. With overclockmatic is fairly easy.

Do you have a heatsink or extra cooling?
Also are you using a 3A power adapter? Lower ones don't have enough power for overclock and might run unstable.

I have 3A power adapter, but I haven't installed any extra cooling. Thought maybe some of the PCB versions didn't support OC?

I installed your newest rom version 2.0.9a yesterday on my Beelink R89, 8 gig version, had been running linux on it. Been a long time since I had last used one of your roms, but this one is almost perfect. It has Dolby and DTS passthrough using the latest Kodi 15 nightly, which is awesome. One problem I have encountered is in the audio track using Kodi, I have a hick up in the audio every three seconds. Not sure if this is the sound issue that others have reported, but I just installed your sound-fix zip, but it did not solve my hickup problem. Everything else seems to be working great for me, camera, contacts, calendar, all work. thanks

Hi all,

Wasser Firmware 2.0.9a for Beelink R89 is released. For more infos please take a look at the first post!

Please report the feedbacks, it's very important for me to improve the firmware!

Enjoy!

Wasser

DTS and DD passthrough seem to work just fine on Yamaha AV Receiver with HDMI audio output with SPMC 14.2. Stereo apps work just fine as well on my Tronsmart. I've set up the audio to play stereo all night. I'll see if it will auto mute tomorrow and report back. I'll also see how well it does with Pioneer AV Receivers too.

Hello Wasser, I sent you a pm with my dropbox link for my log files showing the audio errors. I get an audio hickup every 3 seconds while playing a video from the latest Kodi 15 nightly, both Dolby and DTS. I am connected by HDMI from my Beelink R89 to my new Denon AV receiver. I am playing the videos from my Synology NAS, When I try to play the same files from my NAS using ESFile explorer, and MX player it says AC3 format not supported. My other external audio apps will not play them either, I have never run into this problem.

[amclean123]

Yes

Looks like the random audio muting is still there.

[slyger]

does anyone know offhand if the latest OC kernel is stable on a Ubox R89?

[torbvea]

I have tested the sound fix for some time now and sadly I still get audio dropouts with HDMI Passthrough in SPMC, Spotify, Youtube.. I also got a random audio mute one time. I have sent you a new log file as a private message Wasser. Thank you!
