GIGABYTE BRIX Pro GB-BXi7-5775

[cpiddy]

Recently got this on sale and decided to go the hackintosh route. I have it up and running using a combination of https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...xi5h-4200-gb-bxi5-4570r-gb-bxi7-4770r.233131/ and https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...clover-uefi-nuc5i5mhye-nuc5i3myhe-etc.233256/
Currently I am unable to get HDMI audio working but I was curious if anyone has this actual machine with macOS installed and would be able to help with some guidance. Bootup seems to take longer than it should and there is a graphical glitch initially which is not a deal breaker just annoying. I feel like I have stuff enable/disabled via config.plist that should be fixed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

See HDMI audio guide:
https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...o-sandy-ivy-haswell-broadwell-skylake.189495/

Thank you for the guidance. I have met all of the necessary requirements listed below:
- native Audio with AppleHDA

- Haswell/Broadwell: renaming B0D3 to HDAU (device at 0x00030000)

- injecting property "hda-gfx" = "onboard-1" on HDAU, IGPU, HDEF objects.

- Haswell/Broadwell: injecting layout-id on HDAU to match layout-id on HDEF

What I'm confused about is patching the frame buffer. I have found the correct node that HDMI is connected to which would be the 0204 connector. Now I'm assuming I need to add change to my config.plist but I really don't know what needs to be used for the "find" and "replace".

Find/Replace data depends on which ig-platform-id in use, and which framebuffer connector is used (eg. @0, @1, @2). Matter of extracting the framebuffer connector data from the kext binary and patching the specific connector-data.

I followed @RehabMan's excellent guide for the bxi5-4750 that was linked. Though I cannot see how it could be combined with the guide for nuc5 as all the kexts and tools are the same.
Anyway, the Bxi5 guide got most things going on High Sierra 10.13.6 with clover 4586: I can get higher than 1080p on the HDMI port (with audio), analogue audio out (3.5mm), ethernet, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, sleep/wake.

The one thing that does not work is DP. I'd appreciate any guidance.
