Reset, after baking the BL and EL (with DoViBaker, I presume), what are the steps to get the original RPU converted to P8?

Did you succeed with the conversion to P8?

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Ok, of course, but i'm intrigued why are you so sure and categorical. It's because new firmwares are worst in certain aspects? In the past I've had issues with stutters caused by not having enough free RAM. The default launcher seems to use more memory, and I still have a custom leaner launcher ins...

Anyone seeing random HDMI resyncs with the Ugoos, even while viewing the movie list on Plex? I’m seeing that, and can’t watch movies for more than a couple minutes without resync or black screens.
Try another cable. Worked for me with minix u22

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

It was fun testing but not even Dolby vision can make me want to use android. Back to CoreELEC and hopefully something materialize soon.

Wow, this Minix option is exciting, especially if we could get away from Android, with maybe a CoreELEC option. I guess that I'm going to have to add to my media box collection! Anybody know if this could be made to work on a Vero+?
If the vero uses the 4.9 vendor kernel.

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

I thought Quietvoid said this wasn’t possible in Linux? It’s possible now if someone built a 32 bit version of CoreELEC. The devs would rather a 64 bit Dolby Vision kernel module. 64 bit DV library is unlikely since Amlogic only have a 32 bit SDK, Dolby only provide them 32 bit library. I got this ...

Right, it's only possible because the SoC manufacturer has provided the proprietary kernel info for these new chips.
There are older open sourced versions on Github, but I assume these devices run on Linux 4.9+ now.
Correct

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Same, I have both. Any difference between Ugoos and Minix in terms of DV format support? Which one would you recommend,? Funnily enough I found the Minix loaded with the Ugoos 4.0 firmware to perform slightly better than the Ugoos when using Kodi in terms of stuttering after seeking. I've also foun...

Re: Dolby Vision now possible through MP4 Mux.

Just tried black panther and bumblebee. Both movies show correctly. I will try a few more later.
