Adding support for php7 and chromium-browser on libreelec #16

Hi @dtechsrv ,

I am willing to run php based website on localhost, but i wont able to see php support in existing package. How i can add the php support. Also wants to know how to add chromium-browser (might be chromium-browser deb will help). OR instead of chromium , i can write pythons script which act as a browser to display the website (like kiosk).

Best Regards,
B Suyog

Chrome: Unfortunately, it needs X11 to run, so it will never run under LE on ARM, it only works under x86.

PHP support: I wouldn't think that a JeOS (Just enough OS) developed specifically for media playback should be tasked with web serving. I recommend that you try a general-purpose OS (e.g. Armbian). But maybe an RPi would be better for this purpose than a simple TV box. On S905, it might work under Docker, although you did not write what kind of device you have.

Hi @dtechsrv

I am using Tanix TX3 Mini (Amlogic S905W 1G RAM 8G Nand Flash, sv6051 wifi). Currently i am working on ARMBIAN, unfortunately not able to run splashscreen (plymouth) and Wifi is not working.

Thats Why i found libreelec quite interesting, because its supports WiFi , Screen Resolution Setting quite easy to handle, Simple Interface. Only thing i was trying to add is my KIOSK application on Home page.

I think you should look for an older version, which is still based on the 3.14 kernel.
