ginogio65 be aware that in my case I am still relying on manual method (checking through kodi GUI) that audio correctly assigned to hdmi1

(Between reboots of rpi4 to update to latest nightly and when my TV/AVR combination are switched off/on)

in my case, I need to ensure ALSA: vc4-hdmi-1, ONK TX-SR608 on HDMI is selected

in your case, I note from secreen grab that you need to ensure ALSA: vc4-hdmi-1, MJI Marantz-AVR on HDMI is selected

My understanding is that vc4-hdmi-1 relates to card0-HDMI-A-2 where for my own understanding I double checked by sshing into rpi4 and inputting tail /sys/class/drm/*/status command when both my TV and AVR is switched on and fully recognised.

tail /sys/class/drm/*/status
==> /sys/class/drm/card0-HDMI-A-1/status <==
connected

==> /sys/class/drm/card0-HDMI-A-2/status <==
connected

So in my usage case above confirms

hdmi0 = card0-HDMI-A-1 = Philips 55PUS7304 4K TV

hdmi1 = card0-HDMI-A-2 = Onkyo TX-SR608 AV Receiver

You are ensuring that your AVR is remaining switched/fixed to hdmi port that you connected your rpi4 to your AVR and that both Audio settings assigned to ALSA: vc4-hdmi-1, MJI Marantz-AVR on HDMI ?

This question/comment relates to my usage case with my TV connected to HDMI out from my AVR in order to utilise CEC/ARC features between TV/AVR. If I am not observant I can miss fact that my AVR may switch from rpi input hdmi port to TV output hdmi port.

(i.e. Does this infrequently during navigation of Kodi GUI controlled via CEC and remote of TV)

earthmate you can download latest version 6.9.3 from github, which is built for and works correctly with Matrix. service.vpn.manager-6.9.3.zip

Manually install addon via install from zip method. Add-on manager - Official Kodi Wiki

From your explanation sounds like your Sony Reciever may not support 4K?

I'm currently working on a script to simplify this whole edid stuff - hopefully that should make it into beta2.

Great thread topic on AVR detection and explanation on how-to utilse rpi4's spare HDMI port to output audio directly to AVR (HDMI 1.4b in my case) when following Settings are correctly assigned to required hdmi out.

• Settings -> System -> Audio -> Audio output device
• Settings -> System -> Audio -> Passthrough output device

Just been testing method/process with hdmi0 (video) and hdmi1 (audio) this morning (which works perfectly, thanks) and like others, I now understand will need to permanently setup edid and config, such that rpi4 remembers hdmi1 connection, when rpi4 and/or AVR is powered off/on.

Thank you HiassofT

It is just the name of the update channel - it still provides the latest nightly builds. Maybe a bit confusing...

Temporarily switched from LibreELEC-10 to LEnightly-9.80 as my "update channel"

For my rpi4 I have following two custom channels assigned in order to switch between above "update channels"

Custom Channel 1 https://test.libreelec.tv/
Custom Channel 2 https://up.legg.ga/rpi4/

Just a comment in thread that update to latest nightly build for rpi4 via new custom channel url is currently not providing available 04/03 and 05/03 nightly builds. Noted that releases.json currently dated 03/03 and assume (ref Irusak previous comments) patience required and not a fully automated set-up to pick up latest Nightlies just yet.

You'll have to add a custom channel for now but please give this a test.

releases.json

Quick test and adding 2nd Custom channel appears to work in as expected, was then able to select 10.0 as an update channel and see latest 10.0 Nightlies. I did not attempt to update (or downgrade) yet, as am already on latest nightly.

flubshi as mentioned by Smultie LibreELEC Nightlies now being identified with "10.0-nightly" within filenames since 27th Feb.

Note: Currently no "LEnightly-10.0" update channel to select

Would be great if you can update your temporary workaround to provide access to latest nightly builds

v19.7.1 auto-magically installed on rpi4 running LibreELEC Matrix nightly builds (sometime in last few hours along with three other addons) and working great and as expected.

Thanks HiassofT Attempted to manually install add-on, but kodi fails to install the zip.

LibreELEC Kodi.log with debug switched on.

Looking at LibreELEC Matrix Nightly addons HERE there does not appear to be an update from v19.6.1 to v19.7.1 for Rpi2 and Rpi4 unlike for other devices in listing.

I note following ARMv8 zip, is this compatible for use with Rpi4 as its not being selected from with LibreELEC when requesting repo to be updated with latest versions of available addons?

9.80.9-ARMv8-arm-pvr.zattoo-19.6.1.1.zip

Thanks for blog update surrounding LE10 release plans and support level expectations for varied LibreELEC capable devices

Just checked and pvr.zatto v18.1.23.1 update has been automatically applied to rpi3 (LibreELEV 9.2.6) working fine again

Upgrading from Leia to Matrix and expecting existing add-ons to be working after will be hit and miss. Personally I would try out LE10 as clean install on spare sd (then you can still switch between until your happy with Matrix)

9.8 is actually allocated to/for LE10 builds

All nightly MATRIX builds can be found HERE filter on rpi4 and select latest build etc

You don't say what S912 device you have but I understand that following is latest LibreELEC Matrix Nightly that I would consider installing on my Khadas Vim2 S912 device. (Not using at moment, too much noise from it small cooling fan, prefer stability of Rpi4)

LibreELEC-AMLGX.arm-9.80-nightly-20210212-bb390f9-box.img.gz

All nightliy MATRIX builds can be found HERE

Note: There isnt an offical build for Leia

Ref previous post above, this pvr.zattoo issue 114 with response from rbuehlma in GITHUB, appears to answer my query that update is on its way for Matrix too.

For overall info in this thread double checked on rpi3 (Leia) and rpi4 (Matrix) and installed Zattoo pvr Clients are currently v18.1.21.1 and v19.6.1.1 respectively, with LibreELEC addons repo currently offering same versions. Keeping an eye out for updates to check that pvr.zattoo is working correctly again once update appears in LibreELEC repo. Thanks to all involved in maintaining, updating and improving LibreELEC.

--edit-1--

Thought to quickly perform zattoo.pvr check in Kodi (Matrix) running in Win10 and confirm v19.7.1 installed and currently OK
