[ROM] Unofficial OpenELEC for MK808B+ and MXQ

[hagay]

build from repository

Thanks for this great rom.
the wifi performance are much better than the android. I was able to play a 40G blueray iso with no breaks using wif only (had to mount the samba drive manually).

I am trying to map buttons on my airmouse but since the hwdb.bin file is read only I was not able. so I thought I will try to build from the repository. I am using ubuntu 14.04 32 bit but was unable to build.
after using the command line:PROJECT=Amlogic ARCH=arm DEVICE=MK808B.Plus make release
I keep getting the following error:

/bin/sh: -c: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'
/bin/sh: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file

hwdb.bin? Why not use keymap.xml from kodi? This one is writable.

hwdb.bin? Why not use keymap.xml from kodi? This one is writable.

I want to change the left mouse key to enter. The airmouse is generating mouse drag events when pressing the left key and in kodi 14 ther is no way to map it (kodi 15 already handles this).

This is good, feel much faster than rpi 2 + hevc support but too bad adjust display framerate does not work

The frame rate adjust works well for me though as it is very important

I can confirm this.
Even on CM12 I could not play 720p movies over WiFi, would buffer at least once per minute.

Now I can stream whole movies without any interruptions. Im using the MXQ S85 box.

Have you followed the guide at http://wiki.openelec.tv/index.php?ti...e_from_source? I am also not sure whether you can build OpenELEC using 32-bit OS. Have you tried building from official repo, e.g. for WeTek Play?

It does work but playing 23.978fps movies results in 'no signal'. I thiks this is related to kernel-side framerate automation which doesn't play nice with Kodi's automatic framerate selection. I don't have enough knowledge to fix this but I think it will be fixed quite soon as there is an Amlogic device officially supported in OpenELEC and I'm using most of the code from them.

Hello kszaq and thank you for all your hard work in bringing OpenELEC to the B+.

This official OE Amlogic you speak of is the wetek play dual core??? Mali-400

Yeah, it's WeTek Play.

BTW, today I released 5.0.3 with some small fixes. Download and enjoy!

5.0.3-20150213

• updated to OpenELEC 5.0.3
• kernel updated to 3.10-24553c6, thanks to @codesnake
• fixed automatic framerate switching, thanks to @codesnake
• kernel configuration synced to OpenELEC master
• added Beelink MXQ TV Box support - check carefully if your box is made by Beelink, this release may brick other boxes!

Unfortunately you can't tell that just by the look. There are at least two Versions that look exactly like that, one uses USB 1.1 (too slow for you) and one uses USB 2.0. I ordered one from geekbuying and i get about 7 Megabytes/sec transfer speed. It is also very cheap:

EDIT: The picture you linked to changes to another adapter every now and then. I was referring to the adapter that looks like the one in my link.

Just flashed the 5.0.3 release on my MXQ, seems to work well so far!
Thanks a lot for all your work kszaq!

The automatic framerate switching seems to work as well,
but for a 23.976fps movie it will go for 24.00hz, which results in some lag periodically.
So 23.976hz is not yet supported? I know my Sony TV supports it.


Today I also got an external USB hard-drive, at first it was not detected at all, but after rebooting it was all fine.
Looks like (this) usb drive(s) are only detected if they are plugged in during boot time -- any idea why this is?

Yes I followed the wiki. I also tryed to build codesnake rep for M8 and got the same resuts so I guess I will have to upgrade to 64bit OS.
