    OpenELEC 5.0.7

    WeTek team is proud to announce the next stable release of OpenELEC for WeTek Play - OpenELEC 5.0.7.

    New in this release:
    - Fixed the no signal on HDMI issues (thanks to jim1985)
    - Fixed an issue when GUI is slow during a video playback
    - Other bug fixes and enhancements

    To install OpenELEC to WeTek Play you don't need to overwrite your Android installation. Just write OpenELEC to an SD-card, and enjoy both of the worlds at the same time with dual boot.

    Downloads

    SD-card image for new installations:

    To install, unzip the provided archive and use a tool, such as Win32DiskImager ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/) to create a bootable SD-card. Turn off your WeTek Play, insert the SD-card, turn on the box again and enjoy OpenELEC. If you want to boot Android, just turn off the box, eject SD-card, turn on the box again, and you'll see Android booting.

    Or you can use WeTek OpenELEC Installer app, which will download latest OpenELEC release and burn it to MicroSD:

    If there is anyone who has installed and used this version, please send your report about your experience regarding improvements and stability over the last version you have used.

    I'm still using the OpenELEC version 5.0.5 and still suspicious that the latest versions are more unstable due to reports from some other forums.

    Some raspberry Pi versions of OE have already been updated with the latest Kodi 15, and I am not sure which version of the OE they are using. This thread doesn't say much about the software published, they just write about how to download and install. I recommend that more details be published - details like enhancements, fixes, the version of Kodi, etc. so that we do not have to check other sites for futher information.

    Your feedback will be highly appreciated.
