I'll publish it as soon as possible. Meantime someone can check the image behaviour on his Orange pi PC.

Hi,
1)I built the image with the option SYSTEM=opipc e not OPI2. I tested it only for Orange PI PC. I build the images for the other board too, but I don't know if they work.
2) I didn't install this plugin; this is a first try to build this image. We can try to build this plugin for this image too.

I try to write the build instructions tomorrow, so other people can try and correct bugs.

Did you test other video plugins? Did they work correctly?

Yes, other then that - IVI addon (streaming video from a provider in Russia - line netflix, I guess, works perfect). The sound, skins, whatever - very cool. Great work, now if could get this thing to install to emmc, and figure out PVR Simple TV ( to me - it is the single most important feature of KODI - running IP tv from a m3u playlist) - it would be great. I'll keep testing the system.
Strangely, I am trying to install different addons and the majority of them (SuperRepo or Kodi repo) will not install, or, if they do - will not run

I don't know why, but all Librelec don't accept some addons, they say is it blocked by the software to not use unofficial.

sad

Weird. Well then, it would be awesome if I could get PVR simple TV add-on to work and emmc install

I managed to bypass this problem - copied the emmc_install.sh script to /media, made it executable and read/write, edited line 12 to point at libreelec folder with sunxi-system file and voila !!! it worked !!
