LibreELEC (Nexus) 11.0.4

    hi, do you know when a configuration of the fan trigger points for the RPI 5 will be available?

    Unfortunately, it's terribly annoying that it keeps spinning up and down again.

    Quote from chewitt

    Have you tried running without it? .. the boards are designed to run way hotter than most users are comfortable with.

    not for a long time, but even the Pi 4 got too hot without an active cooler when playing videos and clocked down

    I use the Pi 5 in my home cinema, so I want it to look good (or be inconspicuous) and be very quiet.

    I currently have this case and have drilled 6 extra holes in it because I thought the ventilation would not be good, I only read later that the Pi 5 does not support fan control.

    I'm running the bare board inside a closed space (cupboard fronted with speaker cloth) in a room with an ambient (AC controlled) temp around 24ºC. There's no case (so no fan) and it's out of sight and out of harms way .. until the flirc cases start shipping. It's never 40ºC cool but also never that hot, so temps and throttling haven't been an issue.

    I have it in the case with copper heat sinks and the 40mm fan, today at noon it had 57 degrees Celsius during a movie when it revved up.
    I'll test it without the fan, but I'd prefer it with the fan because of the longevity :)


    When I tested the rpi4, it always ran into the limiter and the Rpi 4 consumed less power

    There’s a whole ecosystem of expensive accessories built up around the RPI world. Since the original Pi I bought I never had one in a case nor ever needed fans or heat sinks.

    At the price they retail for why end up paying double your outlay for a fancy case. A sheet of acrylic and four stainless coach bolts and nuts and you have a case that everyone will admire and is totally reusable no matter what model you own.

    I firmly believe the whole RPI accessories scene has become an obsession. At the price you pay for an RPI they are practically disposable items. Certainly not a medium to long term investment by any stretch of the imagination.

    I am running LibreELEC on an old ASUS Zenbook.

    It runs LibreELEC 11.0.3 but will nup upgrade to 11.0.4

    The log shows:

    Do I have a DNS problem?
