S912 Image

What is the latest image available for tv box?

 

I run on my tv box pre compiled debian image bullseye with kernel 5.9 but I have problem with video decode on motioneye.

 

Exist new image with best support for meson vpu/gpu?

I find myself the answer to my question, @balbes150 stop develop for amlogic board.

Khadas vim2 image can be a good alternative if it works on your box: https://www.armbian.com/khadas-vim2/

But be careful and maybe don't install it on emmc.

Yes I already try but the image don't have the separate fat32 boot partition and so don't boot.

Not sure if anyone is reading this area anymore but I want to install Armbian onto my H96+ TV set box. I took the green pcb out of the case and can install either a SD card or a USB flash drive with the current version of Armbian I found "Armbian_22.08.0_Aml_s912_jammy_5.15.61_server_2022.08.20.img" but am unsure what to do next. Sorry for the handhold but would appreciate a pointer or two for the next steps. I think I need to update the DTB and some other things. The optimal idea for me right now would be to house Armbian on the SD card and have the unit boot to the SD card as a default case. I have no interest in using Android and could erase the emmc and place Armbian there if I had a decent understanding of the steps needed to do it. Thank you.
