Universal image for both Udoo Quad and Udoo DualLite: OpenELEC-imx6.arm-5.95.3-udoo-universal_v01 OpenELEC 5.95.3 for Udoo with LVDS touchscreens support OpenELEC-imx6.arm-5.95.3-udoo_quad-v01 https://drive.google.com/folderview...pUUhZRkE5akh2YUk0WUlUX3hwLW8&usp=sharing#list =0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0=0 Here is another special build of OpenELEC 5.95.2 for Udoo. In includes support for analog audio and both LVDS touchscreens. It should include support for some other touchscreens too (idorel77, maybe yours). OpenELEC-imx6.arm-5.95.2-udoo_quad-v01 https://drive.google.com/folderview...4VHF5dm9yUGFnTzNsZXVfTGZyV1E&usp=sharing#list By default image starts with HDMI video output. To change for LVDS display file /flash/uEnv.txt must be edited with vi or nano editor in ssh console. Or it can be done in Windows with SD card reader. mount -o remount,rw /flash cd /flash nano uEnv.txt # or vi uEnv.txt # enable only one video line # HDMI video=mxcfb0:dev=hdmi,1920x1080M@60,if=RGB24,bpp=32 # 7" LVDS #video=mxcfb0:dev=ldb,800x480M@60,if=RGB666,bpp=32 # 15.6" LVDS #video=mxcfb0:dev=ldb,1368x768M@60,if=RGB24,bpp=32 Ssh can also be activated from uEnv.txt. Serial console can also be activated in file /flash/uEnv.txt. Ssh can be started from OpenELEC settings or from serial console touch /storage/.config/run_sshd systemctl start sshd To use official Udoo's LVDS touchscreens nothing special must be made because everything is done automatically. The most important part of software to support touchscreen in Kodi is done by me in last week. It takes the best of tslib (touchcreen access library which provides common interface to touchscreen and allows touchscreen events filtering, calibrating, ...) and uinput linux kernel module that allows to handle the input subsystem from user land. My software takes event from touchcreens and send them to Kodi which doesn't need any patch. If displays are switched then some config files must be removed (folder /storage/.config/ts). It can be done in ssh or over samba. To use touchscreens ts_uinput_touch daemon must be running (it is done automatically). It can be checked in ssh console by command ps. OpenELEC:~ # ps | grep touch 556 root 0:00 ts_uinput_touch -d Checking touchscreen with evtest program (Kodi and ts_uinput_touch daemon must be stopped). systemctl stop kodi systemctl stop ts_uinput_touch evtest No device specified, trying to scan all of /dev/input/event* Available devices: /dev/input/event0: RCMCU iPazzPort /dev/input/event1: RCMCU iPazzPort /dev/input/event2: 3M 3M USB Touchscreen - EX II /dev/input/event3: tslib to uinput daemon If only Kodi is stopped it is possible to use evtest on ts_uinput_touch daemon's output (/dev/input/event3 in my case). Calibration can be done in a different ways (not needed for 7" display). From calibration addon under Programs, Tslib/Kodi Touch Screen Calibration. It should appear 5 cross points (top left, top right, bottom right, bottom left, center). Touch them and after one is touched another should be shown. Second alternative calibration mode is directly with ts_calibrate from ssh console: ts_calibrate.sh Third alternative calibration mode is from services (this is most reliable way because it uses tslib calibration directly). In ssh console file must be created and then system must be rebooted: touch /storage/.config/ts/recalibrate sync reboot Or the same action can be selected from calibration addon under settings. To use some different touchscreen config file must be made /storage/.config/ts/ts.conf There is already some generic file ts.conf-generic which must be copied. Also file ts_env.sh must be made (from sample file ts_env.sh-sample). The most important part there is TSLIB_TSDEVICE which can be get with evtest program OpenELEC:~ # evtest No device specified, trying to scan all of /dev/input/event* Available devices: /dev/input/event0:Chalkboard Electronics HID Multi-touch so our device is on /dev/input/event0 The other (probably better option) is to use device by-id. Run command ls -l /dev/input/by-id and you will see something like usb-eGalax_Inc._USB_TouchController-event-mouse -> ../event6 Then set TSLIB_TSDEVICE as /dev/input/by-id/usb-eGalax_Inc._USB_TouchController-event-mouse After all those files are made the screen should work after reboot. Then only calibration must be done and rebooted once more and all is done. Please let me know how it went. Currently I'm the only one who created that and tested. So probably not yet everything is perfect. And my instructions are not perfect either. I would be very appreciated if someone would make instructions more clear. Have fun! I had and will do in the future. I forgot to thanks all the people who helped me Bugs: analog volume is little low but will be fixed in a day or two.
Thans Vpeter for that wonderful work. I run one of your previous image, what is the procedure to upgrade ? Should i copy / past file over my partition of Kodi ? (replace file). Is there a way to update without loosing my configuration / installed plugin ? Best regards, Salim
Updating OpenELEC You just put tar file to Update folder and reboot the system. It only update system and all your settings remain.
I uploaded OpenELEC-imx6.arm-5.95.2-udoo_quad-v03 with better touchscreen navigation. Tap between 1 and 300 msec acts as left button click. Tap between 300 msec and 1 sec acts as right button click (opening context menu). Tap more than a sec only moves mouse pointer. Seems with this image I'm done for a while because everything just works Only analog sound is little to loud. This can be fixed with ssh command amixer -c 0 -q sset "PCM" 70% This can be added to autostart.sh. It will be fixed in next image.
may I ask something? When I install RADIO in music, on a runnning OpenElec (thank you peter) And I search for a internet radio, then it starts the radio.... BUT it sounds like a pitch to high. Like running a 33rpm LP running on 45 sinlge. Very odd....Any hint? I listen often to Waqy Rock 102 => High pitch.
Lets sayt, you start openelec. It is a blue background, with "theater";" pictures";"video";"musical";..."setting" Chose musical andere add on Search for "radio". Andere installatie. Its an internet radio with over 500stations. Chose a station, and try. Hopefully its not a murphys law on my side. Btw thans for looking in tot it. Ivan FLO
So I tried few radio stations and seems ok on my side. Especially because I was listening for one song from Ellie Goulding which I know how should be heard. If anyone else can try and confirm?
Murphys law.... I listen mostly tot waqy rock 102. Wanna bet that it plays well... The dat after tommorow i will take a movie from it.... Tommorow door appointment...(hopefully it's not my ears )
I found the "bug" I have a verry bad WIFI signal. With a cable I don't have this problem... With wifi every 5min. Changing with a Wifi USB stick, same problem... This week I change my ISP... But anaway, Peter, I'm verry greatfull
If you are any good with a soldering iron, you could try this mod, although you might want to do a test with another distribution first to make sure it isn't just related to this build of openelec. http://www.udoo.org/tutorial/how-to-mod-your-udoo-to-improve-wi-fi-performances/
In openelec I didn't even checked how wifi works. It should. But according to this it is general wifi problem.
I love to do that, if I was younger.... Now, I tremble to much. And I'm scared to harm my Udoo... But, as Peter mentioned, its a Wifi problem on the source, not on the reciever. It's running like a maglev train. https://embed.theguardian.com/embed...n-breaks-world-speed-record-on-test-run-video All the credits for this job goes to Peter.
Hi vpeter, I've installed your latest image (v03) and everything is working great except the sound. I have built-in speaker on my TV and I changed the audio output to use the hdmi instead of the analog but I still get no sound. It's not just a stream issue even the sound when moving in the menu are not coming off. I tried cold reboot after changing the setting but still nothing. Is there something I can look to try to find the root cause of my issue ? Thanks in advance for your help and thank you for all your work on getting an kodi image for UDOO
I created universal OpenELEC image for both Udoo Quad and Udoo DualLite: OpenELEC-imx6.arm-5.95.3-udoo-universal_v01 Download on first post.
Thanks Peter. everybody has now a working XBMC/Kodi thanks to you. Mine is still working (EVERY DAY 24/24 7/7). Are there differences? I changed the Add on with TVADDON according to thisYoutube And that works smooooooothlu ...
