Emporium Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Nobody ever said you can use it on an HD5 They Added support for BuzzTV X5 as of CoreELEC 19.5-Matrix_rc2 (July 27th, 2022). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emporium Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 OK.. My bad. Guess it's been updated since the last time I checked it Either way, pretty sure that amlogic will only boot recovery media via mSD card. You can install updates and stuff from USB, but recovery/full booting can only be done via mSD. So on these boxes, I don't think you have an option other than mSD. On PCs, USB is perfectly fine, since they boot from USB. But obviously, the dilemma is, how do you boot from mSD on a device that has no mSD slot Maybe @Betatester can elaborate if the HD5 has actually been tested (or just assumed, since it is similar family as the X5 and U5).

When we made the HD5, due to spacing issues when tooling It was either have an Ethernet Port or SD Card slot We chose Ethernet. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
