Waveshare 5 Inch

Hello, I have a perfectly working libreelec version including youtube addon. At least with a normal PC screen or TV screen.

With a "5 inch waveshare" screen it also works well, but as soon as I play a YouTube video it blocks after a few seconds. The touch screen part is not used. Does anyone have an idea how I could solve this?

Foreword: As written at the Waveshare site, LE is not supported. You are experimenting on your own risk.

That display needs some software settings. You can only use the dtoverlay line at config.txt. All HDMI options have to go to cmdline.txt, which needs a different syntax.

Which of the above settings do you currently have in use for your 5 inch display?
