RPi5 - no real good working over longer period of time

  • In my configuration (RPi5, 8GB, Ethernet, Connected via SAT>IP, Connectivity 300/50 MBit) I have problems with RPi400, RPi5 (500) running KODI 12.1 over a longer term (e.g. movie). I get artefacts on the screen - the system behaves pretty good directly after viewing, but after some minutes the first artefacts are coming (sound and graphics).

    I switched down from 4KH UI to 1080 and now to 720 (but no changes). I have no real idea, where to look at ...


    PS.: The environment with SAT>IP worked over the last 8 years with a Panasonic TV set without problems

  • The config here is generally recommended https://wiki.libreelec.tv/configuration/4k-hdr and is written by me from experience with multiple ARM SoC boards; but mostly RPi4 and now RPi5 which are the family daily-driver devices. I don't have any issues with green artefacts on the screen aside from occasional moments streaming live broadcasts from a Tvheadend instance; due to signal issues on the DVB-S2 side of the setup, or bandwidth glitches which result from the Kodi client being 7,000Km from the server.

    I would start with an update to a current LE13 nightly as even if you find an issue with LE12/12.2 we have no plans for more releases that would bring fixes to that version. Running newer/latest everything might not solve anything; but at least you eliminated 1,000+ differences between versions from possible suspicion.
