Screen getting stuck frequently and pass through not working

Hi,

This is my first thread and sorry if the questions/info seams silly. Tried searching but didn't help.

I'm using Raspberry pi 5 8gb, HDMI (original pi 5 cable) connected to denon s960h (Media player input) and earc port connected to TV.
After initial boot, I changed the channel from 2.0 to 7.1 as I have 5.1.2 system and turned on passthrough. But on the avr it shows as Multi channel input (PCM).
I tried playing dolby truehd, dolby atmos tracks. Also screen is getting stuck frequently. I need to turnoff the pi to pass this. Tried to fetch two logs. Pasting here.

PS: Also, I just bought the raspberry pi 5 8gb for learning. Is 2gb enough for libreelec. What should be the ideal version of pi5 for libreelec to work without any issues.

Thanks

Random guess based on the PCM comment: have you put Kodi settings from Standard > Advanced or Expert to expose the audio formats to be passed-through?. If none are selected you'll still get PCM.

RPi5 2GB is more than enough for LE unless you want to run a ton of persistent add-ons and services like Docker containers.
