No, quick look didn't show anything suspicious and I don't have time for detailed analysis.

-- Do you have any os on that card?
No, the card is formatted in NTFS now, is empty.

I guess you are on Windows. Go to disk management and make sure all partitions from sdcard has been deleted. Then format sdcard again. Windows is unable to see all partitions on sdcard.

Hello and thanks for accepting my access request to this forum.

I'm a newbie about embedded system and I purchase an Orange Pi One due to build a cheap media-center. I've succesfully installed both your image of LibreElec and OpenElec but I have not understand how to use the update tar: it's possible to apply this update to a running OpenElec? There is a guide about it?

Thanks in advance for your attention and for your work.

Simone

the update tar

you place that in the folder update and then reboot your device

and yes you could switch between eachother from openelec > libreelec libreelec>openelec

Since the latest prebuilt image doesn't boot on my OpiPC on three different MicroSD cards, I've decided yet again to build the image myself.

The current git source cannot be built, some URLs don't work anymore:

In packages/sysutils/kmod/package.mk this line:

PKG_URL="http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/kmod/$PKG_NAME-$PKG_VERSION.tar.xz"

needs to be changed to this:

PKG_URL="http://kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/kmod/$PKG_NAME-$PKG_VERSION.tar.xz"

In packages/x11/font/liberation-fonts-ttf this line:

PKG_URL="https://fedorahosted.org/releases/l/i/liberation-fonts/$PKG_NAME-$PKG_VERSION.tar.gz"

needs to be changed to this:

PKG_URL="https://releases.pagure.org/liberation-fonts/$PKG_NAME-$PKG_VERSION.tar.gz"

Here's the resulting latest (last?) image for OpiPC and manual update file: https://mega.nz/#F!QZdBVYyC!DBRDQTBpPMFzkxnSklHtCw

Tried someone install Kodi from this OpoenElec on Armbian? To have full Armbian plus Kodi-standalone without X?

Yes - I know. I did this. But this is not the same. CEC does not work at all - on OPi PC in OpenElec works... Running and clossing Kodi is "strange"...
Maybe it is possible to prepare git with every patch for easly build Kodi in Armbian because ready debian package is only dream I think...

It is doable, but not something I would like to do. Some asked how to do, some are even tried, but I don't know for any working package to this day.

Good morning,
there is someone working on a Orange Pi build of Kodi 17?
I would appreciate it very much because I would like to use Orange Pi One for viewing Amazon Prime Video.

Thanks in advance per for your attention,

Simone
