Wuzizname 0 Report post Posted August 2, 2014 Hey guys, I'm loving my enjoy TV box bit is a bit slow to index and run xbmc, also worried about eating up the internal storage. I have a high speed 16 GB micro SD card but can't get the xbmc app to move to the bigger card, even with root access and apps to move it. I hear speed will be much improved running it off its own SD card. Do you have some insight into this? Or perhaps even storing the library and cache on the SD card? Thanks! I have the 520e enjoytv box. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can find Linux versions here http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=180446 I would suggest only using Version 3, as the wifi on your 520E will not work on Version 1 or 2, since they were developed on the ATV 400 and 1200 which use a different wifi module.

Hi Justin, I wanted to follow up on this, I still have my Mygica 520e box and recently moved it up to the bedroom after buying a new mygica 4k box for the main tv room The 520E is now getting really slow and I wanted to ask is it possible to flash OpenElec or LibreElec on it or some other jeOS linux w/ Kodi so I can update to latest kodi and still get good performance from this old unit? The link you sent me before has a slew of model names and numbers that I can't really make sense of - do you have any updated resources or advice? Thanks as always.

The 520E is using an older Dual Core chipset I don't think Librelec or Openelec supports this chipset anymore, same with Team Ember. I do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry but I do not have any recommendations to run a newer version of Kodi on your 520E The issue is, support for that chipset stopped in 2014, and no third party developers even support it anymore. You can check the XDA Developers forum to see if there is any support for the Amlogic 8726-M Chipset. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
