Thank you, TX5 Plus is quite similar to TX3(based also on S905x3 CPU), just with a gigabit ethernet. I am providing some DTS files so anyone could have a look and improve the DTB (add support for more chips inside the box). meson-sm1-sei610-2.dts could be a good starting point. Compiled to DTB provides working GbE + SoundCard, The other 2 files (meson-sm1-hk1box-vontar-x3.dts uses meson-sm1-x96-max-plus.dts as include) provide a working GbE, but no SoundCard. No BT or Wifi adaptor was detected with any of the DTBs. meson-sm1-sei610-2.dts meson-sm1-hk1box-vontar-x3.dts meson-sm1-x96-max-plus.dts

OK, found a DTS file meson-sm1-sei610-2.dts from dgm78 here. During compiling the file to dtb a lot a warnings came to screen, but the resulting DTB is working. Seems that both GbE and SoundCard are working fine. You can find the file in the attachment in case you want test it. Don't know how to make Wifi or BT work but I don't need them now... My thanks goes to user dgm78 meson-sm1-sei610-2.dtb

I used meson-sm1-sei610-x96maxplus.dtb from this thread for my Tanix TX5 Plus Deluxe box. Most hardware is working (Soundcard OK, but 100 mb ethernet). With meson-sm1-hk1box-vontar-x3.dtb from here Gigabit ethernet is working, but no sound. Do you think it's possible to combine meson-sm1-sei610-x96maxplus.dtb posted by almotra with hk1box/Vontar gigabit version(DTS files are there too). I presume source .dts file for meson-sm1-sei610-x96maxplus.dtb would be needed. Could anyone advice where to find it? Maybe I could try to combine it myself when I find the source DTS file... Thanks a lot

Hello, I have updated my TX5 Plus Deluxe (4GB/64GB,1Gb Eth) to the latest official Android firmware (newton 20201224) and finally managed to start Armbian_20.10_Arm-64_buster_current_5.9.0.img from USB Flashdisk. I tested several DTB files for ethernet speed and working soundcard (aplay -l). Here are some results: 1. started with meson-sm1-sei610-ethfix.dtb recommended for Tanix TX3 (similar box). Result - NO SOUND, 100mb Ethernet 2. next - meson-sm1-sei610-x96maxplus.dtb I found here. Result is surprising - Gigabit ethernet WORKING, but no sound. This is good news because it's working with original Tanix bootloader (speed confirmed via iperf3). 3. next - meson-sm1-sei610-x96maxplus.dtb from here - SoundCard WORKING, but only 100mb Ethernet. root@armhassio:~# aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: SM1SEI610 [SM1-SEI610], device 0: fe.dai-link-0 (*) [] Subdevices: 0/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: SM1SEI610 [SM1-SEI610], device 1: fe.dai-link-1 (*) [] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: SM1SEI610 [SM1-SEI610], device 2: fe.dai-link-2 (*) [] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 I want working both SoundCard and Gigabit ethernet. Could anyone help me combine good parts from those 2 dtb files ? Maybe it helps some other owners of this tvbox. Thanks a lot in advance.

Thank you very much Rob for reporting. It's still not bad result for a start, booting from SD card seems to be a problem on many other boxes. I hope some developers could help to resolve the ethernet issues in the future. Can you test whether USB 3 port is working full speed?

Sorry, but I don't have the box to review it Only review I found is video in portuguese? language (but I don't understand it): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yjNHBoYWhc Seems we have to wait until someone who already bought the box shares his opinions and experiences...

here is the the summary of features: https://androidtvbox.eu/scishion-v88-piano-tv-box-powered-rockchip-rk3328-soc-now-44-99-promo/

Anyone tested "SCISHION V88 Piano" box? https://www.gearbest.com/tv-box/pp_1064854.html Gigabit ethernet, 4GB ram, nice thermal case design, DRM widevine level 1, ... seems to me like a nice RK3328 box. The smaller SCISHION box is booting from the card, not sure about this one.
