Please flash with Rockchip Batch Tool 1.7, use Restore button.
Please report any problem with this firmware, I can't verify this custom firmware works as I don't have a Minix Neo X5 device to test the custom firmware.

First, thanks for this much needed upgrade to our little machines. There is nothing about whether the ROM is flashable in CWM in the release notes. The only reason that I ask is because there is a mention of a CWM install package.
I guess that your answer is no, and I will do it with your batch tool kit....
thanks again

If you check out CWM ArcTools package link you'll see it's actually a way to install a CWM Recovery as an option (our custom firmware comes with a stock recovery as default).
At a a later point, we'll eventually repackage our custom firmware in a CWM type update package for those who have a CWM-R installed and prefer to flash the firmware this way, so Rockchip Batch Tool wouldn't be required.
Cheers.
