Libreelec starts up in wrong resolution 1024x720 in stead of 1080p

    • New

    Hello, since I switched to libreelec 12 on my pine-h64-B, I have troiuble with the resolution of libreelec.

    Before Libreelec 12 it always started up in 1080p but since libreelec 12 it starts in 2 of the 3 times on 1024x720. I have to reboot a few times to get it in 1080p.


    I just added video=1920x1080@60 to the append line in extlinux.conf. I hope this will fix it. In case this is the wrong way to do it, what's the correct way? getedid doesn't seem included in Libreelec for Allwinner.

    This sounds like there is an issue by enabling DDC lines to read EDID. Not sure how this can be random. I guess I'll need to test it for myself, but not sure when.

    That will help with video resolution, but you'll most likely lose HDMI audio.

    To fix kernel/DT issue :)

    no, but you can find edid blob in sysfs and use edid-decode to get readable text. In any case, 1024x768 resolution is indicative to failed EDID read.
