Do you know a image for orange pi win? Thanks

There is certainly no Open/Libreelec for this board, however, Armbian for this board supports video acceleration out of the box. This means it might be possible to bring up KODI on top of Armbian ... but never done that. KODI is out of my interest zone.

Hi, has anybody successfully built working LibreELEC images with Kodi 17 for Orange Pi PC?
If yes, could you please share any specifics or even the images themselves?
Thanks!

Just a follow-up: I wasn't able to successfully build the "allwinner" branch in the git repo (https://github.com/LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv/tree/allwinner) - during the three attempts I undertook, the "PROJECT=Allwinner DEVICE=H3 ARCH=arm make image" command always finished with errors.

After a few try's, i was able to build a image.
The U-Boot config is set for an Orange Pi PC Plus.
Here is a link to the image.
I can not say, if it works, i will test it at the weekend.

Update: The Orange boots up, but wifi isn't working. A new problem that must be solved.

Looks like Bootlin git does not produce a full LibreELEC image - it is missing the linux kernel. Kernel should be compiled separately, as far as I understand. https://linux-sunxi.org/Sunxi-cedrus#Linux
The root filesystem includes neither boot software nor kernel support: both have to be installed in addition to extracting the filesystem on the target medium.

@martin5504  you are missing uboot and kernel in the image

@smp Why seperataly ? just adjust the package.mk from the kernel

and take another image script in the scripts folder

remove kernel patches and of you go

or if you to lazy

just go to

https://github.com/jernejsk/LibreELEC.tv/commits/aw_hw_dec

and built that one
