It does not work with a slow sd card. Although it was declared as class 10, the truth is that is n ...

I received feedback that it works now. I can confirm that class 4 doesn't even need the fix. Does it work with another SD card?

Thanks for answering. There would be some other alternative to remotely control opipc ?

What kind of control? Something to see video remotely? Currently there is no support for that (it's the same reason why screenshots doesn't work).

sorry, but i need to get this question answered: in Fex Guide there is this paramter called screen0_ ...

That fex guide may not be completely applicable to H3. It is based on A20 AFAIK.

Sorry, I don't understand your question. You want to achieve higher resolution? What are your current settings? screen0_output_mode selects resolution.

Can anybody please test eMMC installer on PLUS as described in FAQ?

Copy code

this is my current situation, and it took much time to get these parameters that work with my monitor but it's only 640x480. all other resolution-optionss gave me a "frequency not supported"

EDIT: the raspi2 give's me tha 1680x1050 with hdmi_mode=58; it's not that simple with OPiPC

Yes, I confirm my previous feedback: fake class 10 sdcards with real class6 and lower performance didn't work before the patch and now work in images with the patch.
That's my experience after testing with several sdcards.

If you want to change resolution, you must change value of screen0_output_mode. All possible modes:

typedef enum
{
DISP_TV_MOD_480I = 0,
DISP_TV_MOD_576I = 1,
DISP_TV_MOD_480P = 2,
DISP_TV_MOD_576P = 3,
DISP_TV_MOD_720P_50HZ = 4,
DISP_TV_MOD_720P_60HZ = 5,
DISP_TV_MOD_1080I_50HZ = 6,
DISP_TV_MOD_1080I_60HZ = 7,
DISP_TV_MOD_1080P_24HZ = 8,
DISP_TV_MOD_1080P_50HZ = 9,
DISP_TV_MOD_1080P_60HZ = 0xa,
DISP_TV_MOD_1080P_24HZ_3D_FP = 0x17,
DISP_TV_MOD_720P_50HZ_3D_FP = 0x18,
DISP_TV_MOD_720P_60HZ_3D_FP = 0x19,
DISP_TV_MOD_1080P_25HZ = 0x1a,
DISP_TV_MOD_1080P_30HZ = 0x1b,
DISP_TV_MOD_PAL = 0xb,
DISP_TV_MOD_PAL_SVIDEO = 0xc,
DISP_TV_MOD_NTSC = 0xe,
DISP_TV_MOD_NTSC_SVIDEO = 0xf,
DISP_TV_MOD_PAL_M = 0x11,
DISP_TV_MOD_PAL_M_SVIDEO = 0x12,
DISP_TV_MOD_PAL_NC = 0x14,
DISP_TV_MOD_PAL_NC_SVIDEO = 0x15,
DISP_TV_MOD_3840_2160P_30HZ = 0x1c,
DISP_TV_MOD_3840_2160P_25HZ = 0x1d,
DISP_TV_MOD_3840_2160P_24HZ = 0x1e,
DISP_TV_MODE_NUM = 0x1f,
}disp_tv_mode;

Copy code

Usually, you would set it to 10 (0xa) which is 1920x1080p@60Hz. If none of those modes work for you besides 2, then you are out of luck.

It's not harder than on RPi

I uploaded new images. This time only full SD card images, because there were changes in bootloader which are important (slow SD card fix, among others) and in script.bin.

Please test suspend/resume functionality (power button) and report. I have very inconsistent results.

eMMC installation is also possible now (please check FAQ). I would also like report on this.

When you turning on, the LED is green. When you switching off is the red, reconnection is not possible by pressing the power button.This was meant to switch on IR remote control.Power switch on the circuit is not active.

Hi, thanksfor new images, (I have no linux machine yet, so I cannot compile). I did sometests…

My cfg: OPiPC, SD card: Kingston 8 GB, Class 10, image: 20160309

Powerswitch: works 1 time, but when I repeat switching, the system does not suspend or wake up. LEDs are working fine
Videoplayback: playback is still jittery, frame rate doesn't stay stable (SD, HD –h264, UHD – h265)

V-synch does not work – vertical lines

PVR:Switching the channels still does not work, system freeze
