# LibreELEC @ dtech - Long-Term Support (LTS)

Community sources and binary images for some Amlogic TV boxes and x86 32-bit CPUs. This repository is based on [LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv](https://github.com/LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv).

This project also maintains a binary addon repository and all the images are also available on the external website: [https://libreelec.dtech.hu/](https://libreelec.dtech.hu/).

# How to create bootable media, boot, install to NAND and update

1. **Create bootable media (SD card or USB flash drive):** 
To create bootable media you need to download the [LibreELEC-AML USB-SD Creator](https://github.com/dtechsrv/usb-sd-creator/releases) tool. Select the file you want to download and click the `Download` button, or click the `Select file` button and browse the previously downloaded disk image *(\*.img.gz)*.

***NOTICE #1:** Meson8\* devices (S805/S8X2) only support USB boot since version v9.2.8.16. However, this option is not enabled by default, because scanning USB ports in some cases increases the boot time with additional delay. 
To enable it needs to set a variable in the uboot environment: `fw_setenv enableusbboot 1` (default: 0).* 
***NOTICE #2:** It is important to note that some devices cannot boot from USB at all, or only certain USB ports can be used for this purpose.*

2. **Boot LibreELEC from your previously prepared bootable media:** 
If you want to boot the device from your bootable media, you need to perform the toothpick method first: Disconnect the power plug, insert the prepared boot media, and then press and hold the reset button. Reconnect the power jack while holding down the reset button, then release it after about 3-5 seconds.

***NOTICE #1:** The reset button on MXQ and M8S+ is located behind the A/V connector, but on the Mecool and WeTek devices, the reset button is located behind the hole on the bottom of the device.* 
***NOTICE #2:** If the Android recovery menu appeared, you pressed the button for too long.*

3. **Install image from bootable media to internal NAND/eMMC:** 
If you want to install the image into the internal memory, you need to log in via SSH and run the `installtointernal` command.

***NOTICE:** The default password for the root user is `libreelec`.*

`IMPORTANT NOTICE:` 
`It completely overwrites the old OS *(e.g. Android)*, so it is no longer possible to boot that system!`

4. **NAND install image for SD card:** 
Download the NAND install image *(\*-sdcard.zip)*, extract it, and copy the contents of the file to the root folder of an FAT32-formatted SD card. Disconnect the power cord from the device, insert the prepared SD card, and plug in the power jack while pressing the reset button. You need to hold the button about 8-10 seconds until the LibreELEC installation begins.

***NOTICE:** The reset button on M8S+ is located behind the A/V connector, but on the Mecool and WeTek devices, the reset button is located behind the hole on the bottom of the device.*

`IMPORTANT NOTICE:` 
`It completely overwrites the old OS *(e.g. Android)*, so it is no longer possible to boot that system!`

5. **Install an update package:** 
To install the update, you need to download, and then copy the update file *(\*.tar)* to the Update folder via SMB, and then restart the device. The update process will start automatically after the restart.
