Adding support for Vero 4K

  • Hi


    We've received a couple of requests to add support for Vero 4K, an AMLogic based device. I've dug in to the install_hyperion script, and can see that we need to add a CPU check:


    CPU_VERO4K=`grep -m1 -c Vero4K /proc/cpuinfo`


    And change


    if [ $CPU_RPI -ne 1 ] && [ $CPU_IMX6 -ne 1 ] && [ $CPU_WETEK -ne 1 ] && [ $CPU_X32X64 -ne 1 ]; then


    to


    if [ $CPU_RPI -ne 1 ] && [ $CPU_IMX6 -ne 1 ] && [ $CPU_WETEK -ne 1 ] && [ $CPU_X32X64 -ne 1 ] && [ $CPU_VERO4K -ne 1 ]; then


    I see that the script then fetches a tarball from SourceForge. I couldn't find an appropriate way to generate a tarball. I suspect it will be similar to the WeTek one as they are both AML based devices?.


    Vero 4K has an ARMv7 userland (and 64-bit AArch64 kernel).


    Can you give us some pointers to add support for this new device?


    Cheers

  • Hi everyone,


    I would also be interested in a way to use the awesome media player Vero 4K with the equally awesome Ambient project.
    Sam here is a great programmer and he has done a lot for osmc on raspberry and then Vero.


    Please help him implement this :)


    Thanks
