FTMC is based on Kodi 16 which is over 2 years old using old PVR code.
Kodi 18 has vast PVR improvements that might help.

the problem was that kodi18 don't have the amlcodec

FTMC works good, but on pvr every 5 min on some channels, buffering.. speedup, and another cache/buffering.. all the time

[mo123]

Then it's time to get a device that supports Mediacodec properly instead of AMLCodec which is discontinued.
Have you tried LibreELEC or CoreELEC?

[pepecop]

yes i tried that and works well, but no apps from android, with ftmc on android works well, only have this buffering problem, i think that this problems are caused by the sound, but i dont know how solve it

Issue has nothing to do with FTMC and you already posted several other places.
FTMC is also not supported on your device.

Broken firmware, not an FTMC issue.

Not possible as Inputstream needs Kodi 18.
FTMC is based on Kodi 16.

Thank's for reply.

It's a real sin 'cause I have tre old Android box with Android 4.4.4 and superceleron mod on board. I'd need to enable on FTMC a video plugin called video Mediaset and it's need inputstream to work. Any idea about it?
P.S. There is not any other mod based on Android 5 for that boxes.....just superceleron mod :-(

For all the users with android 7.1.2 with the s905d

Tried all forks, all kodi builds.. and that's my result:

SPMC 17.6 - PVR stuttering, lag menus and work all the other, python 2.7 addons works, and u can launch apks from kodi menu

SPMC- 16.7.4 - Works all ok, addons ok with python 2.7 but... it can't launch android apks from kodi menu, because this fork has this bug (on their github, a all the users comment the same bug)

SPMC- 16.6.0- Works all ok, can launch android apks from kodi menu, but.. it cant launch python 2.7 addons..

FTMC- 16.2.31 - PVR issues, randomly black flashings every 5~10 min and buffering fast speed problem on pvr, but all the addons with python 2.7 works well, and u can launch all android apks from kodi menu

Wetek Media Player - Works all ok but the same of 16.6.0 - u cant launch python 2.7 addons.. and u can launch android apks from kodi menu,


I dont found any other fork that works with all, python 2.7, pvr works, and can launch androdi apks from kodi menu Sad

If anyone know another fork to try it or somthing.. or how recompile an old version with python 2.7...

I think the best way to reproduce all at this moment is SPMC 16.7.4, with the apk launcher problem, but i like too much FTMC but has the pvr issue,

Another way is install kodi18, and add shortcut from vtv on kodi menu.. but u loses the tvheadend server

Thanks for all

[mo123]

You can ask for help in Beelink's own forum on their website and provide more details.
No one is going to help if you just post something random.

Just get a LibreELEC compatible device and safe yourself all the time from trying to make something work that will always have problems and be outdated.
