Switch RGB to YCbCr / RPi4 - LE 9.2.6

hene42 · May 27, 2021 at 2:17 PM

Dear Community i recently tried to switch my RGB to YCbCr on my RPi4 (LE 9.2.6),

i already tried to configure these config.txt settings;

hdmi_pixel_encoding=4

hdmi_pixel_encoding:0=4

hdmi_pixel_encoding:1=4

but it still didn't work, does someone have a solution?, is there another way to switch from RGB to YCbCr?

or does someone has the same problem as i do?

Best Regards,

The first line should do it. Chances are your output device doesn't support YCbCr, and then it falls back to RGB.

It worked with a Raspi3 and Kodi 18.9. Now with Raspi4 and Kodi 19.1 it no longer works. Are there any other suggested solutions?

thanks.

If it worked on RPi3, it could be a bug. Finding a solution is hard at the moment. If you write a bug report for LE 9.2.6, the answer is to switch to LE 10.0 Beta. On LE 10.0 Beta video settings move from config.txt to cmdline.txt with a different syntax. All info I have about the new video settings is here: Click! As you can see, there is no YCbCr setting. I think all you can do is waiting until it's implemented.
