eloon Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 hi, i have an orangepi 4 lts, but thereis no legacy image of armbian for this board. Orange pi does have their own debian legacy image but it tells me it was unable to locate the package. Is there any way to get the multimedia integration on this board? thanks! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werner Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 You can try to build your own legacy image using the build framework. However you might end up without connectivity since the PHY chip has changed and driver may not be present in 4.4.y branch. Well there is only one way to find out. https://github.com/armbian/build 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acaN Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 Цитата You can try to build your own legacy image using the build framework I guess, there's no hope for "easy" legacy build for orangepi4-lts, because there is no way to choose "legacy" in the GUI of armbian build (even with "EXPERT" flag), it's missing. And if I try to force "legacy" via CLI flags, I get: sudo ./compile.sh \ BOARD=orangepi4-lts \ BRANCH=legacy \ RELEASE=buster \ BUILD_MINIMAL=yes \ BUILD_DESKTOP=no \ KERNEL_ONLY=no \ KERNEL_CONFIGURE=no [ o.k. ] Using config file [ /home/user/progbin/build/userpatches/config-example.conf ] [ o.k. ] Command line: setting BOARD to [ orangepi4-lts ] [ o.k. ] Command line: setting BRANCH to [ legacy ] [ o.k. ] Command line: setting RELEASE to [ buster ] [ o.k. ] Command line: setting BUILD_MINIMAL to [ yes ] [ o.k. ] Command line: setting BUILD_DESKTOP to [ no ] [ o.k. ] Command line: setting KERNEL_ONLY to [ no ] [ o.k. ] Command line: setting KERNEL_CONFIGURE to [ no ] [ warn ] The KERNEL_ONLY key is no longer used. [ KERNEL_ONLY=no ] [ o.k. ] Use an empty BUILD_ONLY variable instead [ error ] ERROR in function interactive_config_ask_branch [ functions/cli/cli-entrypoint.sh:106 -> functions/main/config-prepare.sh:114 -> functions/configuration/interactive.sh:149 -> functions/logging/traps.sh:0 ] [ error ] Kernel branch not defined for this board [ legacy ] [ o.k. ] Process terminated So, i guess, for Orange Pi 4 LTS the only hope is that JMCC will have the opportunity to implement multimedia features for "current" or that at some point mainline catches up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvo Nice Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Hi, thank you for your work! Only one question, is this supposed to work also for Rockchip RK3399T? I have a RockPi 4c + which has this variant. But I also noticed that legacy Armbian is not available for this board, maybe I have to build it myself 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you can build an image and try. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also own a Rock 4c+ but since weeks I'm unable to bring my gpu to work.... always llvmpipe is loaded as driver. And tested different versions of Armbian, Debian & Ubuntu... just this methode I havn't tested. Have someone else any suggestions ? As far I understood correctly with Debian 11 it should work OOTB because the drivers are included. Or maybe a hardware faulty...? I searched the internet a lot but nothings worked out.... would be grateful for any tip 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Дмитрий Батин Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 @JMCC dear friend! Can you help a lot of pple to get multimedia acceleration on their OPI4LTS and tell us you secret? How we can get it today on our board? Do you have any manual, that can help us to get it ? we are be very thanks to you 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMCC Posted July 7, 2023 Author Share Posted July 7, 2023 3 hours ago, Дмитрий Батин said: Do you have any manual, that can help us to get it ? Hello! In the first post, you have links to all the sources, most of them from my GitHub repos. The procedure might be outdated, though, I haven't touched it since 2019. For Kodi, you can try the rockchip branch for legacy kernel, or the mainline branch for current. Compilation instructions are included in the repo. Good luck! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stulluk Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I installed this image to my rockpro64: https://mirror.yandex.ru/mirrors/armbian/archive/rockpro64/archive/Armbian_21.05.4_Rockpro64_buster_legacy_4.4.213.img.xz Installation & automatic booting into KODI works perfectly. In addition, playing h264 encoded video files also played with HW acceleration, playback is smooth, HDMI have audio. The problem is h265 videos. They are stuttering periodically (every 2 seconds ) with all the TVs I tested. Does anybody know a solution to this? @JMCC Also, is it possible to have a : - HW accelerated decoding with smooth h264 / h265 playback - HDMI audio - Automatic booting into kodi on the latest upstream builds of Armbian for Rockpro64 ? Note: I tested LibreElec for Rockpro64 and all above works perfectly. The problem with LibreElec is its rootfs: It is not Debian / ubuntu and I need to be able to install my packages there, so my use-case is best of both worlds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogy Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 (edited) Mirror link is broken. Anyone can provide another mirror link?! Le: https://imola.armbian.com/apt/dists/ Edited March 6 by Ogy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorSmartyPants Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Recommended way to get this running on a headless system? My end goal is to get HW acceleration working for transcoding using Jellyfin 10.9 (which now supports rkmpp) on my RockPi4a . So I tried to make a new install on an SD card following the directions here. BUT, I didn't install the desktop legacy buster image, I tried Armbian_21.05.1_Rockpi-4a_buster_legacy_4.4.213 instead. During Quote sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade I got an error Quote Err:6 http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-backports Release 404 Not Found [IP: 199.232.30.132 80] And Quote Unable to locate package media-buster-legacy-rk3399 I'm missing several of the devices listed on the Jellyfin RKMPP page, most notibly rkvenc, dma_heap, mpp_service (but maybe that is just because I'm using a rk33xx chip) Is the desktop image necessary to get all the devices for rkmpp to work? sudo armbianmonitor -u is generating an error for me. Is there a different way now to upload this info? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werner Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 Buster, kernel 4.4.y and therefore this multimedia framework are deprecated. Also take note of Jellyfins wiki: Quote Older chips may be supported but we were unable to test, such as RK356x and RK33xx So there is a chance that they don't work at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorSmartyPants Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 40 minutes ago, Werner said: Buster, kernel 4.4.y and therefore this multimedia framework are deprecated. I get that, this is the Legacy multimedia framework afterall. But as far as I am aware this is the only set up that supports the HW accel chips in RK3399. So it has the only chance of work there might be. But I can't even get media-buster-legacy-rk3399 to install at the moment. Just looking for some guidance if this is related to not using the desktop image, or if it's because of the missing repo I mentioned. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werner Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 The error you get is from upstream. From Debian themselves to say. However "media-buster-legacy-rk3399" package came from Armbian apt repo for Buster which has been phased out as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorSmartyPants Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 So it sounds to me like there's pretty much no chance to get this working, unless I'm building everything myself. And maybe not even then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
