is there any need to make a modification once we have flashed .img on a sd card ..?
I tested without making any changes. There are a large number of different sets of equipment and components, which are all called MX10. Perhaps you have an option with bad components. I found that on my instance, everything works fine with increased memory and frequency parameters, but this does not mean that it will work for everyone.

Is there an overview of additional features included in these builds, or are they equivalent to the latest Armbian releases for H6 SBCs, just for TV boxes?
ArmbianTV is an extended version of the official Armbian.

Sorry, used the wrong image and wrong commands.
It flashed with "sudo ./upgrade_tool di -b Armbian_21.05.0-trunk_Rk3188_hirsute_current_5.10.9.img", but image didn't start (screen black).
These images are not intended for such use. They are written to the SD card by the appropriate program for recording images. Also on your device, you may need to adapt the standard firmware to run external systems from the SD card.

The new version 20210303.
Fixed installation in eMMC.
I checked on TX6, the installation in eMMC works correctly (I selected the first line in the menu), the system starts normally from eMMC. But I don't guarantee that it will work correctly on other models.

Adding and splitting configs is simple task, agree, like most of small development tasks. But from the maintaining point of few, this is another set of configurations which needs attention and needs to be maintained. Since must of such dirty work nobody sees falls on me and since there is virtual no interest to help out https://forum.armbian.com/forum/54-help-wanted/ I can't support ideas that bring more on maintenance work.
Here is just the opposite situation. By removing unnecessary (unused) options, you get simplified support and reduced costs. Extra options cause more compatibility problems when a broken driver of one platform breaks the work of others and you spend time figuring out why the main device does not work. Fewer options = fewer build issues when changes to the source code are not compatible with the current patches. This is the law of programming, the fewer elements (code in processing), the fewer errors in the output and easier support (no cross-influences).
I don't insist, it's just information.

Humans are biggest resource we have to spare. Compilation time is not an issue and I doubt there is noticeable difference.
Our kernel build system is now used by a lot of users not mediocre on the devices themselves. For them, when the native kernel is built on the device itself, the extra options in the configuration result in a few extra hours. Moreover, the optimization is very simple, copy the current configuration file with a new name, disable unnecessary platforms in the current rockchip64. If necessary, I can send a PR if there is a decision on which name to use for the general kernel configuration, or I can use something like "arm-64".

To analyze the error, need a UART log.

New images are available for rk3188 (20210301). https://disk.yandex.ru/d/bmsU1aueVGLPjA?w=1
Anyone can build their own version, I added build support for rk3188 and rk3288 to my GIT.

Sorry if I wasn't clear enough. I thought you knew I was using sd-card. It still works when manually changing the uuid in extlinux.conf, so no worries.
I'll add your use case (sd + nvme) to install, but you have to check it yourself.

I choose the first item, start from sd-card and system on NVMe.
Every time it copies the system to NVMe, but doesn't adjust the extlinux file.
I'm leaving Android on the eMMC for now.
I'll now finish the video. Still a lot of work to do, but I'm halfway.I asked you many times which option (string) of the installation you choose, and there was an exact indication of which option is checked and working (eMMC+NVMe). And now you write that you used the first line of SD + NVMe, which was clearly stated - this option is not working. The SD+NVMe variant has not been developed and tested.

question. Currently, the rockchip64-current kernel config has options for other platforms (AW AML iMX), this config is used exclusively for RK, why waste resources on unnecessary options ? There may have been plans to make a universal configuration, but then it makes sense to make a separate file that can be used for general configurations.

I'll check the new image tonight.
I finally have filmed everything I need for the video. I had a lot of issue's with capture devices not working properly and always had to redo it.
So I installed it 4 times. And every time it didn't boot from NVMe, but instead from sd-card. Changing extlinux with the correct uuid from NVMe works.
I did choose the correct way, you'll see it in the video. Tomorrow I should have it finished. It'll be a long one. Review and installation all in one...I did a system installation check on NVMe on Renegade Elite, the permutation of the mshlyapa takes too long and doesn't make sense to check (technically it is the same device as the P1, the difference is only in the DTB used). Downloaded the latest image of Buster is a legacy https://disk.yandex.ru/d/h_pMzFbuFXseOA?w=1 . unpacked it. I wrote it to the SD card. Configured DTB in extlinux.conf . Started the system, performed the initial configuration of the system on the SD card. Started the installation (the third item in the menu, installing u-boot on eMMC and installing rootfs on NVMe). Selected EXT4 file systems for both devices (mmcblk and nvme). I waited until the installation was complete and turned off the device. I pulled out the SD card and turned on the power. The system started automatically with NVMe. I specifically compared the UUID in the extlinux.conf and fstab settings, they are the same, while eMMC and NMVe have different UUIDs and they are correctly specified in fstab. Compared the UUID with the SD card, it has its own (different) UUID.
Where do I look for the error ?
Please note, this is important. If you do not remove the SD card, the system must start from it, this is the correct behavior of u-boot (the startup priority, regardless of where the u-boot is located, is strictly set by the USB SD eMMC).

Thanks - we use your H6 images extensively. I don't see the script to install to EMMC. Has it moved and if it has been removed, is there any way to recover this capability? Happy to cover your time if that will help. Thank you!
In theory, the standard installation procedure via armbian-config should work, but I haven't checked how it works yet, errors are possible.

I am using an old kernel, the last one I could find tag RK3328-tv box download to MEGA but maybe I could use another version ??
Firefly Station M1 is rk3328, I tried these images on MX10, all the main hardware is working. You can try installing a new kernel (rockchip64) from the network repositories, but look carefully at the settings, the startup data may change (DTB, mount parameters, etc.).
14 часов назад, MX10.AC2N сказал:Indeed my concern of "freezing" has nothing to do with the web server use that I make of my box, that's why I thought that maybe the electric adapter would be too weak with its 2,5A ..? (but I'm not sure)
Check the heating again, the TV boxes have a disgusting cooling system, it needs to be reworked, only after that the device starts working under load.
13 часов назад, MX10.AC2N сказал:So far I have only seen 2 SOCs with this rk3566 / 68 (geniatech and rock64) are there other manufacturers?
Yes, there is, but everything has its time.

But when I tested the installation on NVMe, everything worked correctly, I'm not yet ready to say why it doesn't work for you.

bunch of fresh sd cards arrive.
by the way, you can test from USB media, all ArmbianTV images support launching from USB (the order of polling and launching USB SD eMMC systems). I.e. if you install in eMMC or connect one SD card with ArmbianTV to P1, you can test other systems from USB flash drives by simply connecting them to the USB port (if you connected a USB flash drive with the system, it will start first, if you disconnect the USB flash drive, the system will start from eMMC or SD card).
this means that you can burn any ArmbianTV image to an SD card, and then burn any system to USB flash drives (including the official versions of Armbian, ArmbianTV, Libreelec). connect SD card and USB flash drive at power-on, autostart u-boot from SD card and then he autoruns the system with the USB stick, as not affecting the OS in the eMMC or SD card.

I tried a youtube video in 4K in full screen. Chromium works, the video goes smoothly, but sometimes there are microfreezes, it is not clear whether it is because of the Internet, or something else. Firefox can't handle 4K full-screen, although the window shows everything without problems. The temperature with Chromium does not exceed 60 degrees (full-screen 4K video).

I found a 4K TV (I took it away from the children for a while)
.
I check the latest image of Buster-legacy (with a patch https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/2650 ) with a media script on 4K. When the frequency of the display settings is 60 Hz, the screen constantly flashes\turns off, if I switch the settings to 30 Hz, everything works without problems (the resolution works 4096*2160 and 3840x2160). The temperature when playing full-screen 4K content (via GST Player), only 47-50 degrees.
By the way, for some reason, the control via the remote control does not work in GSTplayer, the control works in MPV (you can adjust the sound, rewind, and the rest). In the desktop itself, can control the remote control (select applications, launch them). Naturally, in KODI, the remote control is very convenient and controls all the functions.

As it turned out, freezing the kernel will not help when installing the media script, it still has the same error - hard binding to a specific kernel. If you freeze the core, the media script forcibly replaces it with the wrong old core from the network reps @JMCC . And you have to manually install the new kernel after installing the media script (via dpkg -i). You can download the new kernel packages here.

@NicoD You can check out this image 20210228-legacy ?
https://disk.yandex.ru/d/h_pMzFbuFXseOA?w=1
I added a patch from
https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/2650#issuecomment-787198231
to it to improve 4K.
Pay attention.
Before installing the media script or updating the system , freeze the kernel update, otherwise you will get the old kernel from the network repositories (this is not the correct kernel with errors).
p. s. the image is already fixed DTB to reload.

LXDE does not have any "advanced", its only plus is the primary view closer to the appearance of fucking windows. LXDE has a limited range of settings and features.

Armbian_20.07_Rk3328-tv_buster_current_5.7.8.img
This is an old image, the latest images already use kernel 5.10.19.

Sorry, but I don't know what the hardware (resource) requirements are for your use case. You write about large amounts of data copying and I do not understand how this is related to the Web server.
I would not rush to buy Amlogic equipment now, new models based on rk3566 \ 68 should be released soon (developers already have real samples of such models and they are already working on their support).

Try using different dtbs from my Libreelec image for rk3328 on the latest version of ArmbianTV (kernel 5.10.19). There are more different dtbs in LE that may work better with your model variant. There's an mx10 version out there, try it out.
