I can't SSH into my pi to fix audio

I installed LibreELEC on my Rpi4, and everything worked fine except for the audio. I found a post here:

No audio - General Support - LibreELEC Forum that said that I needed to SSH into it and change the value of one of the files. I tried using the default username and password first and it didn't work. I tried setting a custom password and that didn't work either. I tried using no password at all, and still no luck.

If it means anything to you, I'm trying to use SSH from PowerShell on Windows 11.

Edit: when password is disabled i get error

jabin@[ip address]: Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive).

I've tried using PS, Windows Subsystem for Linux, and even the command prompt and they all return the same error.

I'm able to use SSH from PowerShell on a Win11 Pro (arm) VM under vmware Fusion so I assume it can/should work from the x86_64 version too. Please ensure that you didn't enable the 'disable password auth' (allow only key-auth) option in LE settings, because this is confusingly worded and will not stop the box from prompting for a password; but does prevent password auth from ever working. Assuming that wasn't the issue, install PuTTY and use that instead.

I think the issue might be the IP address I'm using... I'm new to LE but the IP address I put in for SSH was the one listed by my WiFi network in the LibreElec settings -> Network section. Is that the right IP?

Maybe I m still old fashioned but the best 3 items you should install if you own a rpi are notepad++, winscp and putty..

Use winscp to browse files on your pi,putty for ssh and notepad for editing..

If your windows is on the same network as your rpi that should do it.

---

If you just need ssh best bet is install putty..

then create file..

Code

@echo off 
C: 
cd \Program Files\PuTTY
start putty.exe -ssh root@192.168.0.5 -P 22 -pw libreelec
exit 

...change ip to your rpi ip

then

save as myrpi4.bat and run it

PuTTY worked for me, but trying to run tvheadend fails.

I typed tvheadend and it didn't work.

(just realized i turned this topic into "trying to enable tvheadend)

Quote from Mario77

not sure what you mean by tvheadend?

I'm trying to run the TVHeadend script so i can access the setup from my browser because I typed in the correct IP and Port after installing TVH, but it didn't load the page. (I am on the right network)
