Many recent TV boxes with digital TV tuner ship with Android, and run a custom DTV app to watch live TV. However, most ships without Dolby and DTS licenses, so you may end-up without audio for channels broadcasted with AC3 audio only, and if you’ve gotten used to Kodi TV interface previously you may want use it again. One workaround is to have Tvheadend or CESBO media server running in the device, and configure Kodi to use Tvheadend HSTP client to stream the video within your device. I’ve tested such video streaming on U4 Quad Hybrid recently since it’s enabled by default, but there’s no guarantee it would work with all Android DVB receivers. Another options is run version of OpenELEC with support for tuners, such as Vitaley S’ Vitmos 2.0 RC3 for Venz/VideoStrong K1 Plus based on Amlogic S905 processor. [Update: Vitmos 2.0 RC5 for K1 Plus DVB Combo tuner]
Instructions are in Russian, but if I understand Google Translate correctly, you simply need to download vitmod-os_v2_rc3.img.gz, uncompress it, and dump the image (sdcard.img) to an SD card with Win32DiskImager or dd, insert the card into the device, go into recovery one, and after K1 Plus will boot OpenELEC from you micro SD card without affecting the Android installation.
The image also supports Enigma2, VDR and Neutrino-MP applications. Bear in mind that this has only been tested in the DVB-S2 version of K1+ [Update: Actually it might be K1+ with DVB-S2 tuner found in K1 (Amlogic S805)], and the DVB-T2/S2 combo version I reviewed previously may not be supported. In case you already own the previous model K1 (Amlogic S805) with DVB-S2, there’s also a Vitmod firmware for that, and Freaktab members confirmed it was safe to try.
If you own one of the K1/K1+ TV boxes with tuner, and have tried one of Vitmod image already, your feedback is greatly appreciated.

I think this is a mod for K1+ version but with the tuner from K1 device, vitaley didn’t have the drivers for the combo, but since it’s almost the same model as the tuner and demodulator on TBS5520, those drivers should work just fine I think
What about dvb-api compatibility? If they use default one driver from amlogic most likely oscam will not work for encrypted channels :/
i should have posted my other post here, saw the new topic too late : http://www.cnx-software.com/2016/02/28/review-of-k1-plus-android-tv-box-with-combo-dvb-s2dvb-t2-tuner/#comment-524423 I’ll test oe and vitmod on the k1 (s805) when i get it. One thing that would be very useful would be to source those dvb tuner boards (s2 and s2/t2 versions), if by any chance they were manufactured by another manufacturer and not by venz for their own board. @natsu from what i could find, i don’t think there’s an open source linux driver for the tuner chip used on that s2/t2 board. TBS drivers are not open source they use a binary… Read more »

yeah there are two things annoying with tbs linux drivers : – one, they are not open source but in my world that’s okay as long as they work well and unfortunately that’s not the case at least with my two boards (lots of problems with s2 tunning). – two, it will not build against the vanilla v4l tree, it packs its own v4l (somewhat old) and overwrites your existing one, so it’s very complicated to get non tbs v4l devices to work on a system that has tbs drivers installed. @Vitaliy_S can you confirm our speculations concerning your k1+… Read more »

Yes, current image work only with dvb-s2 (av2012/avl6211) tuner from K1 (S805) box.

@Vitaliy_S
any chance to get the 1080p60 AMlogic HW transcoding engine works with TVheadend, I know it’s a lot of work if it possible, but let’s get crazy 😀
@Vitaliy_S
thx for your hard work
@natsu
interesting, i didn’t try tvheadend transcoding on my s805 device, no one should really need it on a lan but well since it’s there..
My guess is that it’ll depend on ffmpeg hw encoder support in the amlogic source, i’ll test that when i have some free time.
@natsu i may be wrong but it looks like there’s still no hw accelerated encoding on the odroid c1 (s805) so transcoding is not likely to work (well). h264 software encoding is way too demanding (not optimized ?) for those arm socs. Maybe the c2 with its s905 will bring some hw support but i doubt that.. But i will still test that on my raspberry pi 1 or 2, which has not problem decoding & encoding 1080p h264 at the same time, actually ending multiple stream is possible too.. Yeah when the features are not only on paper (or… Read more »
VITMOD OS v.2.0 RC5 for K1+ Combo

I’ve tried your great vitmod os RC5 with my s905 s2/t2 combo box.Tested only dvbs2 tuner.neutrino finds signal and channels,but enigm2 doesn’t find signal and channels,will you make a new release for this(I use disecq)? With tvheadend how can I use oscam?and with my box there’s remote problem but I fix it with changing remote.conf,thanks
Vitaliy_S, hello
“Enigma is bad friends with this tuner” google translate to your post.
What does that mean ?, Is the reception bad ?, Will channels can be seen…
@Vitaliy_S Hi, thanks for firmware and tried RC3 on a C100S box. Enigma2 and Kodi/TVHeadend work fine. Also work fine in communicating to an Oscam server from wicard and from TVHeadend, the latter using dvb-api. So can see HD channels with CA. Would like to use the AV output (have a projector without HDMI) but none of your options activates the cvbs AV output. Assume this can be done from user space ? Also the settings for cvbs AV as an option are missing in Kodi and Enigma2. AV/cvbs works fine in the original firmware, albeit with startup problems; one… Read more »

ohhh nooo that’s too much haha
I’m not talking a proper review here, just an update with what’s working and what’s not

@natsu if you need a full featured 4k h265 box for your home dvb, get a k1 s805 s2 (add a $10 t2 stick if you need it) as your tvheadend server and any cheap s905 box with a decent oe image, as your kodi tvheadend client. if you still need a single box, you can check again the k1+ dvb in a few months but as long as there’s no linux dvb drivers for that s2/t2 dual tuner i wouldn’t put my money on it.

@Vitaliy_S
have tried the v.2 RC5 but it is not recognized by my C100S Vigica box and the inserted SD card is ignored.
When RC3 is on the SD card it is recognized and boots, as reported above.
Could use RC3 if only it had the AV output working! That is the only plus of the original and buggy firmware relative to yours.
Can anyone post a video of how enigma 2 or neutrino works on this with kodi. Can it be pulled in via the Pvr plugins or does it close kodi and open enigma 2/ neutrino. I’m looking to replace my wetek because of the remote issues and the buggy state of enigma 2 on it. Tvheadend doesn’t really suit my needs as the epg and bouquet functions are well behind enigma 2

@natsu
i have a idea, if TBS5520’s Linux drivers was add to vitmos, connect a tbs5520 with k1+ with usb.
that will be good.
Thanks @Vitaliy_S, Amaizing work!!!
I’m wating for tuner driver Avalink avl6862 (KI-PLUS Dvb-S2/T2 s905), I hope you can help. Thanks again!!

@kiplustv
That’s what Vitmos 2.0 RC5 is for, no?
@Jean-Luc Aufranc (CNXSoft)
Yes, works!! but in enigma2 I can’t search channels, no signal with tuner Avalink avl6862.
There are another solution?
@Jean-Luc Aufranc (CNXSoft)
I waiting for this…
@kiplustv my advice, don’t get too excited or impatient. if i understood Vitaliy_S correctly, he’s actually coding a driver not building an existing source, as i believe there is no direct existing linux driver for that tuner. It’s quite a long and complicated work (that should be done by the manufacturer), even if you have driver sources for another chip of the same family which may or may not be the case. So at the moment, the k1 dvb-s2 works fine with openelec or vitmod image, i was able to do a quick test for an hour. The K1+ s2/t2… Read more »

did tvheadend worked well on android
@natsu
Thanks for correcting my answer. I have only tried neutrino mp and work well.
@kiplustv
you’re welcome
did you run it from sdcard of flash it to the nand
if the kernel is good and have DVB api drivers I would flash it to the nand and use it with TVheadend and CESBO on android, hopping that will work
could you please make a video, to show zapping speed, system and all that stuff
thx
@natsu
Yes! I could, but only with Neutrino_mp from sdcard (http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=730111&st=280#entry48527711) and if Vitaliy_S gives me his permission.
@kiplustv

You have video in youtube (Test Neutrino_mp VITMOD OS 2.0 RC5 ) I can’t write link here, It’s a bad video but I hope it’s useful. If you need more specific accion please tell me know.

@kiplustv
excellent video, thank you very much
neutrino MP seems to work very good and smooth, the avalink chipset seems normaly detected, niiiice 😀
did you have trouble with the remote control config
I didn’t hear any sound on the first 4K channel I think, the AC3 was it decoded?
and what about TVheadEND integration with kodi, did it worked well
@natsu
Hi! the remote control work perfect I didn’t have to configure anything. The sound with AC3 is perfect too, but I didn’t remember to turn up the audio on TV…sorry. And TVheadEND integration with kodi I haven’t tried it. I use the last original firmware (03/30/2016) because I think there isn’t custom firmware that works well, thanks for Vitaliy_S for their great work with VITMOD OS. KI Plus Combo works 100% with android, it’s an excellent performance TV Box.

seems very nice and stable
if TVheadEND has the same stability, it will be perfect

hello
what is the procedere to change from open elect to the original firmware. or to activate enigma2 in vitmod os on sd card.

Eject the sdcard and reboot, you will boot in the original android.
If you boot VITMOD from the sdcard, use menu to start KODI (if your are not already in KODI) and the power button (of KODI not the remote one) to start Enigma2 or Neutrino.
Enigma2 does not works correctly until now, use Neutrino, I am using it in almost a daily use.
thank you dreambo
i tried neutrino the tuner does not work and neutrino is long time ago – i remember we worked on on nokia d-boxes. but i will wait for enigma on K1 then is the box realy greatful .
sorry but i have replaced original firmwear android for openelec and i would like return to DTV
so please stay helpful to me

Hello,

thanks for your help
Fifi
hello i tried Vitmod os 2 rc6 but to install cccam into i need for ftp “benutzer and Password”
who know this
thx
@dreambo
@totFR
Perfect, I was waiting that someone confirms that both, Acemax and Videostrong firmwares, run on the Videostrong K1 Plus.
Use ssh or scp/sftp for that : user=root, password=root
You can install oscam if you want, but you can use wicardd already installed in /usr/config/wicard.
it works very well.
The original soft from Videostrong supports both tuner – 4K channels / DVB S2 and the new DVB T2 channels with HEVC codec.
I have tested openlec 6.95.3.1. and there are the same problems with HEVC based channels I’d with VITMOD OS.
The channel scan in the tvheadend configuration got only the “normal” services.
Does anyone have a solution ?
Hi I have k1 plus amlogic s905 android 5.1.1
And as they learned to use the satellite system tuner dvbs2 need DTV application inside the software I want to edit and add some things on DTV app I want the name of his or her company designed to communicate with developers DTV app video company has requested strong to do the modifications that I want and they tell me they can’t do that because of copyright
Videostrong asked me to rub shoulders with DTV program to make modifications that I want, I asked them about any information to contact the company and they tell me we don’t know can they supply with me information on DTV program developers
Can I record radio stations or not
i intalled vitmod rc6 in my k1 plus combo but the problem is there no audio passthrogh option (ac3 , dts ) in audio settings …. expert mode
I installed openelec on my k1 plus. Checking the system information, it shows me that the cpu temperatur is around 170F and also that the processor runs at 1000Mhz. I was wondering if it is throttling because of the high temperatur? It should run at 2000Mhz right?
Would be nice if someone could check.
@rose
The processor will run at a lower clock speed most of the time, and only switch to 2.0 GHz when there’s a higher load, unless the temperature gets too high. I don’t know the max temp for S905, but for many SoC it’s 90C.
In your case, it looks normal.
Does anyone know why in openelec there is no option for more than 24fps when the resolution is higher than 1080p?
@Jean-Luc Aufranc (CNXSoft) Thanks

i need channel editing software for KI plus
Tag the channels within the tvheadend web gui. Also you can give numbers for the order. The tag acts as a grouping for the kodi tvheadend client.
1- If you are using the DTV app in android, do an SDCARD backup (from the setting) and use it in : http://k1plus-channel-editor.arrakis.pro/register.pl
only the file dvb_s_mw_s1 is needed.
Then save changes, overwrite the existing file in the SDCARD and do a restore in the settings of DTV app.
2- if you use neutrino or enigma2, use dreamset (google it)
3- if you use Kodi with tvheadend, do as rose said

@mesut
Latest Openelec:
http://amlinux.ru/image/905/6.95.3.2/
@Rasco
Personally I use the openelec version stated above. This works great. If you do not need oscam, I would go with the android os. For me vitmod 2.0 rc5 (enigma, vdr,…) was not really working. Is there 2.1 available?
Which version of tvheadend you are using. Give us a link. I have problems with tvh you know may be ı can buy k2 pro. It will release next week. Videostrong said me.
I just saw that there was vitmod 2.0 rc6 published. Maybe someone could try? There have been a lot of changed made to the neutrino.
@mesut
Running openelec you have two repositories, the official- and the un-official openelec repository. There you can install tvheadend 4.xx and there is also 4.2 available. If you want to know how to install it, just search for “openelec tvheadend installation” on google or youtube.
Also, the versioning of the openelec tvheadend addon is slightly different I think 7.xx is on of the latest. Within their changelogs you can see which tvheadend is actually behind. The version I use is 7.0.103 as far as I can remember.
@rose
Something I made a mistake does not have a 2.1 🙁
@Rasco
Don’t worry. I think there is even a version 2.1 but it is not compatible to the k1 plus. Again, I don’t know by heart. The one I know for the k1 plus are:
openelec 6.95.3.2
vitmod 2.0 rc6
stock android (where kodi is installed, you can also install spmc, which is an android friendly kodi)
@Vitaliy_S
Hi vitaliy, is your driver available for public? Maybe providing it to liebrelec would help the k1 plus to evolve?! The developer there is looking for the driver to implement it in the librelec version for S905 devices.
https://forum.libreelec.tv/thread-524-page-17.html
Thank you rose. Libreelec 7.0.2.00x is very stable. Hdmi-cec…. everything is working very well. Kszaq in libreelec froum do not support dvb cards. Do not help us for avl6862. Maybe vitaly_s help us. I am waiting k2 pro. İmproving avl6862 driver is will uselful for k1+and k2 pro.
@mesut
On page 17, from my previous post kszaq states that if we could provide the driver for the internal tuner, he would implement it. I think I found the driver:
http://openlinux.amlogic.com:8000/download/ARM/modules/
Maybe he will implement it at some point?! Unfortunately after registration at the libreelec forum I never got a email verification code, therefore I can not post anything there.
Good news. Maybe you can send a e-mail to vitaly_s. My english is not enough. For explain all my idea or claim to someone

Has anyone been able to get Cccam working on the Ki Plus DVB-T S2 model? I can enter the data, but connection only lasts 3 seconds. The green tick then disappears and “connected” changes to “unconnected” when you go back and look in the main cccam menu. also show when
@ozviewer
I had the same issue, but it was not persistent.
It depends on the channel, some channel never work, some work now and then, some other work almost flawlessly.
When you tune a non-working channel, the connection drops and fails for some minutes with any channel.
Then after you tune a working channel, and the connection gets established again, it start working.
Thanks for the reply. Do you know what encryption you are watching? Mine is Irdeto, and not one channel will work at all.
@ozviewer
I was using it with Hotbird 13E.
Mostly Italian TivuSat channel worked, while other Polish channel in some cause triggered the connection crash.
I don’t remember what they was, and I’m pretty sure the Polish have a variety of encryption inside the same channel (lots of CAID).
However, if you can accept to lose Android interface, I would recommend to move toward VITMOS and use the Oscam I provided in the previous comment.
I released also OSEmu for VITMOS. Same folder as oscam.
http://www.costan.org/K1Plus/OSEmu
This should allow for EMU fuctionality inside Oscam directly. Please read the manual on github for configuration:
https://github.com/oscam-emu/OSEmu
Also prepare a startup script similar to oscam one if you want to avoid to login after each reboot.
Thanks a lot Andrea. I will have to back and read your comments and see what I would lose. I was hoping this box would be ok, as it was “an all in one” type that I desired. I have noted and downloaded a new software dated 09082016, but not used it yet in fear of bricking the box.
@ozviewer
You don’t need to upgrade.
You just need to use an SD card with VITMOS that, when inserted, will run VITMOS while, if removed, will allow the usual Android experience.
So you will not modify nor upgrade the box. You’ll simply boot a plain linux from SD instead of Android from ROM.

Thanks again Andrea. That makes it simpler doesn’t it. I am not savvy with doing firmware/roots and all that sort of thing, but if that is the case, and it does no harm, it sounds like something I should look at. Excuse my ignorance, but looking back on the thread, do I just load VITMOD OS v.2.0 RC5 for K1+ Combo https://cloud.mail.ru/public/JYzE/nbjeQWc4X on to an sd card, and then power on the box? Is there a config file/ozcam/emu in it already to try, or do I then have to put your file at http://www.costan.org/K1Plus/OSEmu on to it as well. Many… Read more »
@ozviewer First, you need to prepare the SD with VITMOS 2.0 RC5 (maybe also RC6, but I’m still using RC5). After the first boot that setups the SD with the filesystem, the box boots with kodi, and wicardd. I’m not sure how wicardd works, and I simply discarded it (I also disabled it on boot, more later). Now on the system menu you’ll find the vitmos entry, you need it to configure the wifi (if using wired, just look for the IP). Now with your PC go to K1_IP:9981 and setup TVHeadend, there’s wizard and plenty of information on the… Read more »
Again, many thanks for your detailed information.
I will need to read it a few times to get my dumb head around it..lol.
I’m sure I’ll be asking more questions soon, but hey, many thanks for trying to help me out and steer me in the right direction.
I really appreciate it.
@zildan
Does it happens any time? Is just for some channel or for everything?
I suspect this can be an OSCAM bug, not related to cross compiling.
On any channel, e2 and neutrino, RC5, RC6.

Try to debug OSCAM, or try the same config on an external linux PC.

Is there any chance to get this tuner driver work with K2 Pro? because is the same just the HW revision is V1.2.
@zildan
did you get it, the oscam works in neutrino?
I have the same error.
Dvb-api is not compatible at CA, between K1 and Oscam in Vitmod!
Hi..not too sure if this is the place to ask this dumb sort of question.Please forgive me if it is wrong to do so.When a manufacturer allows a CCcam menu in their box to enter details, I take it that it has an emulator of some kind on board. Do all such data files include the capability of unscrambling all the different encryption types automatically, or does the original file in the receiver need to know certain caids to be able to do it? Do these onboard caids need updating for some users to unscramble their stream? How can I… Read more »

hi
for enigma i found a openpli for s905
” sd image: http://www.telconet.hu/s905/openpli-4-s905_sdcard.zip
you need to copy your proper dtb into boot partition as boot.dtb. You can find it at http://kszaq.libreelec.tv/s905/7.0.2.007/device_trees/
If you have odroidC2 you need to revert back the boot.ini (I created a special boot.ini for media boxes). If you have a S905 box you can use the toothpick method to boot.”
can you add a boot and tuner?

Did someone try this firmware? Can I still run openelec from sdcard in parallel? Is there Oscam support? I found the following picture on pda.ru: http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=730111&view=findpost&p=54880728 is it me or is oscam written their?
Oscam is written in the 111111 menu. Could someone verify if dtv now supports oscam? This would allow a lot of users to use Android instead of alternative firmwares. Dual boot works also.
@rose
not yet
Hello,
I compiled oscam and create some script to run oscam natively on Android, and use 127.0.0.1 as CCCAM/NewCam server on DTV.
It works like a charm, and gives the flexibility of oscam straight on Android.
I’ll arrange a download link (and instructions) and post here.
The only issue is that installation is NOT straightforward, you need to use ADB and root.
@Andrea
thanks
There are versions for wetek play2 s905 if you want to modify them do not need a lot of work
https://mega.nz/#F!71dCwSRR!NsqZ3RXw342X1BbOSssUGA
@algdu83
Thanks for pointing.. I’m not that expert about Android apps.. I think they are cumbersome and very confusing.
So I just developed using straight Linux environment (and fixed Android way of working with DNS, app start etc.) and it works.
Moreover I also plugged some personal magic on Oscam and thus I needed a known environment..
The apk are simple to install, but if I need to change anything, I’m almost lost…
Anyway I might give a try 🙂
And again, thanks for pointing out.
@Andrea
thnks
I trust you, because these version work only it does not communicate with DTV because are program for wetektv
Thank you again and good luck
@Andrea
Could you check if oscam works directly now? Just instead of entering the cccam Information try to enter the one of oscam in the cccam settings. There should be a reason why they call it oscam now. I hope they have a reason ?

I disconnected the power to the K1, and inserted the sdcard.
Powered the box, and it simply starts like it does every other day.

Tried it so many times, all to know avail.
I am wondering if the 2 x different manufacturer boxes behave differently. To the best of my knowledge, mine is the inferior Videostrong one.
Thanks anyhow.
1. try to use hidden button in bottom of box , hold it then plug power , wait until boot
2. maybe u use old firmware in box , i mean official firmware
Thanks, I haven’t changed anything on the box since purchase.
How long do I hold the button, is it until the 905 logo appears, and then let it go?
Thanks again.
