Great! Thank you

Hello vpeter,

MatrixTV v1.3 can not sput down power supply, so the usefullness of an rtc is limited .

Regarding dt files. The cleanest solution in my opinion would be an own set of dt files for MatrixTV. We can add the missing analog audio port, if anyone cares about analog audio though.

Does Matrix v1.3 even have RTC chip? I have v1.2 which doesn't. But v2 does have it.

Regarding own dt files for matrix: the problem is who will maintain them? It was broken on a few kernels I checked and this kernel from Cubox-i is one where almost everything works. I just need to add ir receiver, fan output and spdif. Currently checking PCIe stuff.

And if you have a node for analog audio output just send it.

Can you try build and run

Code: Select All Code

CONFIG_RTC_DRV_SNVS=m

and check lsmod/dmesg if it was loaded and if it works for you.

According to default configs all have it y. So it is default usage in my config.

this is mine latest image:

Is it possible to use the OpenELEC update method with this images? Copy KERNEL and SYSTEM to update folder and reboot?
Or must i use the Matrix MfgTool ?

Bad news,
the new Gotham Build doesn't boot into XBMC if my DVBSky S960 USB Tuner is connected to the Matrix. The previous build worked without probs.
I attach my putty output, there seems to be a Problem with the dvb-modules. When i start without the tuner everything works fine.
I'll try the Helix-build later and report if it's working.

It's a text file, had to rename it cause uploading .txt files is not allowed ?

Edit:
Same issue with the Helix build, not starting with DVB-Tuner connected. Without Tuner XBMC starts ok, but Samba-Server doesn't work. ssh login is working. Also Display-errors, parts of the screen dont update. When i try to play a movie from my Zyxel-NAS the Box freezes complete, have to push power to reboot.

I will reinstall the build from 14.09., which worked allright with my Tuner and my NAS. Can you make builds without the updated dvb-drivers , i think that will work.

Hi vpeter,

I have attached two patches. First one will disable the inbuild imx6 rtc via dt files. That will make my prior patch to disable the rtc-driver in Kernel obsolete. The second patch will enable sgtl5000 audio codec. _BUT_ this will break compatibility with the original sabresd hardware.

franky384, update works with copying tar file to update folder. Same as updating all other openelec systems.
And it's normal that DVBSky tuner now doesn't work because mixing different drivers has lot of bad effects. With this build I was interested only on TBS tuners. If all goes well there will be different images with different drivers inside. Seems there is not much tbs matrix users with openelec.

Difference between Gotham and Helix is only XBMC/Kodi version. Nothing else.

milan, thank you for the patches. Now the rtc is disabled in device tree for sabresd platform. Right? This means it only affect matrix system.
For analog audio I will see if will be included. Who needs analog audio anyway

Mhm, maybe it would be better to have different device tree for tbs matrix. It would be easier to use all the differences.

I tried this build now (Kodi 14):

- If connect a DVB-T stick that worked before, OpenElect doesn't load (in fact, it crash)
- Video Deinterlace isn't available in this build (I can't enable it)
- Samba works.
- Update system works.
- TBS5925 USB ... I will test it later on.

That's all for now.
