Here's what I did:
- Booted on a gparted live CD and set the entire SSD as EXT3 (As per OpenELEC)
- Booted up and quick installed the latest OpenELEC
- I was getting the "could not open framebuffer: no such file or directory" error at boot, so I SSH'd in and 'mount -o remount,rw /flash' then modified /flash/extlinux.conf adding vga=792 as per these instructions
- Created a asound.conf (below) then set my XBMC settings for custom 'plughw:0,7'
asound.conf:
Code:pcm.!default {
type plug
slave {
pcm "plughw:0,7"
}
}
pcm.hdmi07 {
type plughw
card 0
device 7
}
Everything is now working perfectly (1080p HDMI A/V including DTS, etc.) minus the remote that shipped with the device. I'll look at that later tonight or this week. I'd like to replace all my remotes with a Harmony soon, so I'm not too concerned. Also, I'm using the official XBMC remote from my Android and it works perfectly. Oh, and it's super quiet after boot!
If anyone has tips or a script I can cut/paste (!!) for the remote I'd love to hear about it!
Unfortuntly openelec had the remote working then it stopped (I believe I read that on their forum). I also raead they are working on it. If it was almost any other linux distrobution you could just do a few steps and it'd be working but OpenElec's filesystem is read only and the user can't make large changes...
they should have it working soon though if I read correcly (they just need to patch their kernel)
