@Attilatilla Ok, fixed the device tree and updated the legacy kernel images in the first post.
They are still for testing, but seems to work fine so far with the media installer for tinkerboard in the apt repositories (don't remember the actual package, just search for tinkerboard and you'll probably find with ease).
I tried only the debian minimal image and Kodi was starting fine. Did not try any video though.
Feel free to report here!
Thanks, Jock!
It seems to work pretty well, though i just did a quick test so far.

Did you manage to record the Miniloader on EMMC?
Hi,
Well, that's a bit of a "problem"... I may have some issues with the eMMC, pls see log of AndroidTool:

@Attilatilla For you information, I did some testing using the latest ffmpeg/kernel patched for rockchip hardware decoding, but had no success yet. Since @JMCC found his way to integrate the media installer for rk3288 too in the armbian repositories, I guess I may reconsider to pour some love into bringing up back the rockchip 4.4 legacy kernel for people who wants video/3d hardware acceleration made easy, so stay tuned!
If the support is going to be missing from current kernel for long, it would be nice to have the legacy kernel revived. Given it's not too much work! I'm no coder, but if you need help, i volunteer for it within my limited capabilities. Testing for sure could be one area i can help with.
Thanks!

Try the firmware with Android Pie for XT-Q8L-V10, which can be loaded from the SD card from the Russian forum 4PDA. True, here you need to write the Miniloader to the EMMC.
P.S. You can also try installing Android Pie for XT-Q8L-V10 to EMMC.
I tried these... The box didn't boot.

Hi Jock,
Thanks for your effort to bring a "new" life into this cool box!
I'd need a bit of advice here... I loaded the latest build and it works fine apart from one thing: hw acceleration. MPV is lagging a lot, just like Kodi.
in the first post, there is a link to another topic about getting hw acceleration (RK3288 Media Script) which is re-directed to "RK3288/RK3328 Legacy Multimedia Framework". The requirement there is to use an Armbian Buster Legacy Desktop image. There are only 2x such image exist for this box (Armbian_19.11.8_Xt-q8l-v10_buster_legacy_4.4.199 and version 19.11.3), but none of them would boot due to kernel panic.
Any hints please how i could get hw acceleration working?
Thanks!

Hi Jock,
The box is working fine, X264/X265 videos are playing smoothly up to 1080p (haven't tried 4K yet).
There's though one minor issue, which i believe should be possible to fix, is that when i connect the box my TV, the edges of the desktop are off the screen.
Any hints please?
Thanks!
