While you will be repacking it
Can  you create  as well one wit root
you just  need to add
su binary to  /system/xbin/su
and Superuser.apk to  /system/app/Superuser.apk

additionally following two lines to upgrade script

Code: [Select]

set_perm(0, 0, 06755, "/system/xbin/su");

In fact if you check the alibaba link you mentioned, the specs still shows Kodi 15.2 (Himedia custom Kodi 15.2 (firmware 1.0.9) pre-installed with native 7.1 HD-Audio, 3D, and 4K H.265 support), not Kodi 16 or 17.

If you can share the adjustments you made in Kodi to avoid stuttering?

[MacMac]

yes its different, description is KODI 16:
"Himedia H8 OTA Update Online OTT TV Box 4k Kodi 16.0 Rockchip Octa Core Google Android TV Box"

specs is 15.2. i wrote to himedia over alibaba and the answer is:
"yes H8 only can kodi 15.2 now. cant use kodi 16.0 now."


no stuttering, all my movies and series are .mkv

himedia
- display - 1080p, 60hz
- playback - 1080p24hz OFF

kodi
- hardware acceleration
libstafright OFF
mediacodec OFF
rockchip ON
23976 rockchip ON

- playback
adjust display refresh OFF (its not a computer display)
sync playback display OFF (its not a computer display)

that works fine for me... ;-)

@futeko.com: When will be the "Futeko-Release" with Change-log ready?
It seems the 1.1.1 does not include any bug-fix e.g. AV-Asynch in passthrough with AVR with 50% of movies.

@all: Did someone ask Himedia for the Change-log for the European FW 1.1.1 by email?
