I have installed latest Armbian Buster Linux orangepi3 5.10.16-sunxi64 #21.02.2 SMP Sun Feb 14 21:17:31 CET 2021 aarch64 GNU/Linux Than I have complied ffmpeg 4.3 from https://github.com/Kwiboo/FFmpeg/commits/v4l2-request-hwaccel with parameters ffmpeg version 9236ad7-Kodi Copyright (c) 2000-2020 the FFmpeg developers built with gcc 8 (Debian 8.3.0-6) configuration: --extra-libs='-lpthread -lm' --bindir=/root/bin --enable-gpl --enable-gnutls --disable-libaom --enable-libass --enable-libfdk-aac --enable-libfreetype --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libopus --enable-libdav1d --enable-libvorbis --enable-libvpx --enable-libx264 --enable-libx265 --enable-nonfree --enable-v4l2-request --enable-libdrm --enable-libudev --enable-hwaccels --enable-v4l2_m2m mesa 3d from git kodi 20 from master branch Finally, I can run kodi-gdb from console. h264 movies play fine, but there is no sound over hdmi aplay -l returns **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: sun50ih6hdmi [sun50i-h6-hdmi], device 0: 5091000.i2s-i2s-hifi i2s-hifi-0 [5091000.i2s-i2s-hifi i2s-hifi-0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Should I wait for kernel 5.11 with i2s patch? Or I should compile own kernel with LibreELEC patches?

Recently upgraded kernel from 5.7 to 5.8.6-sunxi Unfortunately, got few kernel panics today. How to rollback to previous?

Thanks Unfortunately, when I am trying to switch kernel, I got an exception every time cat /tmp/switch_kernel.log linux-image-dev-sunxi64=20.02.12.114 linux-dtb-dev-sunxi64=20.02.12.114 linux-u-boot-orangepi3-dev

Thanks Igor I have found topic with advice to apply patches Had a bit of a success with HDMI audio and also video acceleration on OrangePi 3. What was needed was to apply some patches from LibreELEC, namely ones from projects/Allwinner/patches/linux/ . For video acceleration you need 0005-cedrus-improvements.patch and compile Cedrus driver. When done right you should see in dmesg: cedrus 1c0e000.video-codec: Device registered as /dev/video0 Do you know if this patches already included into Armbian? With latest available armbian for orange pi 3 hw acceleration is not available, so I am trying to build kernel and kodi for Armbian with full mmedia support

Hi guys, I am going to apply some LibeELEC multimedia patches to Armbian kernel Please advise, what is the proper way for this? I have found folder build/userpatches/kernel/sunxi-current. Should I put files here?

I have another issue. I can setup WiFi using nmtui. But it requires connect using ethernet or TTL. If I just set wpa_supplicant.conf, WiFi not works. Do we have any tutorial for Armbian how to setup wifi by editing config on sd card?

Hi guys! Is it possible to include this patch into Armbian tree? patch: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-discuss/2019-June/031168.html explanation: https://habr.com/ru/post/456476/

I have 2 questions: 1. how far Armbian on Opi3 from stable point? 2. did someone compare performance Kodi on Armbian over LibreELEC? Is LibreELEC significantly faster?

Because I dont want to erase mmc If this is not possible, I will backup partition with dd, install using nand-sata-install and restore partition from backup

Wrote latest image to SD Boot from SD mounted /dev/mmcblk2p1, copied armbianEnv.txt formated /dev/mmcblk2p1 rsync /boot to /dev/mmcblk2p1 copy armbianEnv.txt to /dev/mmcblk2p1 removed sd and reboot system starts to boot, but can not find root Is this a proper way to install boot? I do not want to tun nand-sata-install and erase mmc.

Is it possible to boot from sd and recover /boot on mmc?

Maybe I am wrong, but uBoot has version with timestamp like 201904, therefore I assume it was not change during last upgrade.

No boot after today upgrade and reboot U-boot wroks fine. Is it possible to recover system without reflash?

Great, thanks. And last question^ when are you going to switch to 5.3? HW watchdog is must have thing for such unstable system like OPi3

Yeah, it is possible to build Armbian_5.93_Orangepi3_Debian_buster_dev_5.2.5.img I have a qustion: do you have a tutorial to set up apt server to update kernel/dtb instead of reflashing?

I have built an image for OPi3. Is it possible to upgrade just kernel without re-flashing whole system?

As per http://linux-sunxi.org/Linux_mainlining_effort Watchdog support for H6 merged into 5.3 Is it possible to use hw watchdog now? Maybe, compile some kernel module?

After updating to new firmware the board not booting and wait on u-boot state => version U-Boot 2019.04-armbian (May 08 2019 - 10:38:01 +0200) Allwinner Technology aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc (Linaro GCC 7.4-2019.02) 7.4.1 20181213 [linaro-7.4-2019.02 revision 56ec6f6b99cc167ff0c2f8e1a2eed33b1edc85d4] GNU ld (Linaro_Binutils-2019.02) 2.28.2.20170706 Please advice, is it possible to upload new image somehow? I mean, without flashing sd card, just in u-boot console

Please advice, how to restore old dtb files? After upgrade to 5.1.7 (debian), OPi3 system became unstable and hang in maximum 50 minutes (sometimes immediately after reboot) Tried to rollback dpkg: warning: downgrading linux-dtb-dev-sunxi64 from 5.89.190614 to 5.89.190612 but still same issue.

apt upgrade returned following Setting up linux-image-dev-sunxi64 (5.88.190529) ... Error! Your kernel headers for kernel 5.1.5-sunxi64 cannot be found. Please install the linux-headers-5.1.5-sunxi64 package, or use the --kernelsourcedir option to tell DKMS where it's located Unfortunately, there is no linux-headers-5.1.5-sunxi64 package

After installation, /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades is empty. What is the proper origins to automatically install at least security patches?

As I understand from https://github.com/armbian/build/commit/69c231dbc0f6a67adea9c487b52b0482ebac3511 currently WireGuard is disabled. So, should I build image on my box with patch to enable it?

Is it possible to integrate wireguard into armbian for opi3, as for banana pi? Currently, lsmod | grep -i wireguard returns empty
