Raspberry Pi4 shutdown time

  • Hello

    Before I spend time trying, could anybody who has LibreELEC running on a Pi 4 (any memory size) tell me the shut-down time for it ? I need something that shuts down much faster than Raspian and was advised to see if LibreELEC might be suitable.

    Many thanks in advance

  • Well my pi3 shuts down within a couple of seconds using libreelec.

    So I would assume the pi4 to be the same or a little faster

    Thanks. I have to provide battery power during the power down so obviously less is better. That's certainly a lot less than Raspian anyway.

  • To be honest my raspian install doesn't take long to shutdown either.

    I have a smart mirror running magic mirror software and alexa on a raspberry pi2.

    This all runs on raspian stretch and if I do a shutdown on this I get the little white raspian box saying stopping services etc then it all shuts down, probably 5 seconds max.

    Maybe you have a slow sd card or are maybe wanting things instant.

    Cheers
