On Orange Pi PC, I have got message:strace modrpobe sunxi_ir_rx

I can insert the module without problem.
Please check if you have the kernel (uImage) and /lib/modules/3.4.39 from the same build.

Shit happens, you are absolutely right - loading module works.
Of course I forgot to copy /lib/modules,
any way thank for your help and patience.

Using OrangePI-PC_Ubuntu_Vivid_Mate.img I can't get my WiFi dongle to work. It works fine on a RPi but it can't find the firmware on the OPi PC despite the file being present in /lib/firmware.

On the RPi it loads rt2870.bin and that exists in /lib/firmware on the OPi PC but for some reason it doesn't load it.

Hi @loboris thanks for your hard work!

Can you add dvb-t drivers as modules on your kernel? It's useful to use the board as a DVR

Thanks

helo everyone.

I have OrangePi PC. The question is... Is it possible to sent HD audio (eg. DTS-HD, Dolby TrueHD) to the external decoder through HDMI?
No matter what system I will need.
For now DTS core is working over HDMI (passthrough) for me but not higher autio formats.

Thanks!

Please, upload  the "Kali"  and "Fedora"  to another server. I can not download from "mega".

For those having trouble geting analog audio (via audio jack) working, please try this:
Run in terminal:

1. alsamixer

Copy code

Press F6 and select audiocodec
Using right arrow key select Audio lineout
Press m to change the value from MM to OO
Press Esc to exit

You may also need to change audio output to audiocodec in Pulse Audio Control.

It is working now. Good job. But the rt8188cus which uses the rl8192cu driver is not working. Any fix? B.t.w. the MT7601 is also not working.

You can change the time zone running in terminal:

480p resolution is intended for small LCD scree ...

Yes, I knew the 480 was for small screen. Was pleasantly surprised it totally cured the overscan issue. Colors similar (but worse...heavy on pink) to the factory installed Android image that fit on screen. At 1080p the tool bars are totally off the edge of the screen. I went to change to 720p to get part of the bar visible so I wasn't blindly clicking off-screen and decided to try 480p for comparison...found 480p fits to screen borders perfectly...about a 19" ONN flatscreen TV/monitor. No VSize or HSize adjustments in on screen menu.

Thank you for the specific instructions to change tz from terminal.
Will try the PC Mate image with Plus scrips and uimage. Being most recent, hoping it has most fixes and does all I need...simple, runs, updates, and can play with gpio and wifi.

Again, thanks for the great work!
Darren.
