OS Hangs if left ON over night

  • Hardware Pi-3
    OS: LibreElec v7.90.007

    Setup 1: Directly connected to TV HDMI and TV USB for power.
    In this setup, when I shutdown LibreElec, the TV would shutdown too and there were no issues.

    Setup 2: Connected to Receiver, USB power from Receiver (always ON).
    In this setup, I can shutdown the LibreElec and it will shutdown the receiver, but not the TV.
    So, I leave the Pi-3 ON and use the universal remote to shutdown the TV and Receiver.

    Issue: When I turn the TV and Receiver back ON, I see the screensaver, but LibreElec is un-responsive. I have to power cycle the LibreElec to get it working again.


    Anyone have any suggestions of setup correction or is this a bug?

    Receiver, TV and others are controlled via Harmony Ultimate remote.

  • Just a guess, but maybe the pi is not getting enough power. The more things you have plugged into it makes it more power hungry as well. I think the pi3 requires 2.5 amps, while the pi2 requires 2 amps. Again. this is just a guess.
