Hi All,
Dunno if I should try posting this elsewhere, but thought I may try here. Ive installed libreelec onto my wetek play 2. Trying to setup the tvheadend service, but after I setup a network, and set my tuner to it, after clicking on "Force Scan" it doesnt seem to scan through the muxes. No error comes up and I can't seem to see anything in the logs, they show on the bottom of the webpage. Anyone have any idea's what I should be looking into?
*it's DVB-S and works in android via WeTV.
Thanks

I've just received my new Play 2 and i have 2 BIG problems:
1) The box doesn't see the external USB 2.0 drive that works properly attached to another box( and also to the PC)
2) The installed Kodi is 17.something that DOESN'T works as 16.1 did with the backup of my library: and this is a real PITA for me
Any suggestions? I'm ready to return the box...
Thanks in advance

1) USB 2.5" Hard Drives usually cannot get enough power to run reliably, if at all from any ARM based Kodi device. This is exactly the same issue as you would find on the ARM based RPi's and any other AMLogic Kodi box. PC's can supply enough USB power. Basically HDD's will need to be self powered from a USB Hub or power brick for reliability. Some modern, power efficient USB 3.0 2.5" HDD's will work out of the box.
2) If you are using Kodi 17.0, which is actually not even a stable release and in Beta, then of course you are going to have ongoing issues.
Frankly - what did you expect, a miracle ?
As droidelec said, use WeTek's stable Kodi Jarvis 16.1 version - called WeTek (Jarvis) Media Player.

Well you can always use Android to watch live TV directly from WeTV DVB application.

I'm struggling to watch live Tv in android and librelec at the moment. Android has terrible lip sync and in librelec I can either get dvb-t or dvb-t2 not both. I'm sure both will get sorted soon but at the moment it's not wife friendly for me. Infact I've tried a build in librelec that used both dvb-t and dvb-t2 but it didn't have had audio for my films so I know that one will be fixed soon
