Wrong, incompatible or defective USB-C to HDMI 2.0 cable ?

Loose or poor connection to above cable ?

Your NUC should be able to output HD Audio with both HDMI and USB-C (at the same time)

I updated both NUC's Bios' and still no change. I guess I could try beta 9 but I really don't want to mess with a working system if you know what I mean.

I have two Intel i5 NUCs (old 3rd gen). They are both running LE 8.2.5 and work perfectly except for 1 minor annoyance. On one NUC, when turned on (wake from suspend) - I get a black screen on the TV. When I toggle the input selector on my Yamaha AVR to another input and back to the NUC, the picture appears. It does this about 90% of the time and it's getting annoying. The second NUC only does this about 10% of the time. (different model Sony TV and different brand AVR).

I control both NUC's with Harmony 650 remotes and have added the max delay to turning the NUC on last but it still hasn't fixed this issue.

Both TV's are Sony LCD's. One is 10 years old and the other is 3 yrs old. The NUC's feed AVR's via hdmi and the AVR's feeds the TV's via hdmi.

The Harmony 650's each have a custom macro program to turn on the TV, AVR and NUC with the press of one button.

Is there a way to add an additional delay to turning on LE from suspend - say 1 to 5 additional seconds ? I'm guessing this is an HDMI handshake issue but I'm not positive.

Any help is appreciated.

I think it's located in one of the red circles

If you Windows account already has a login name and password, you shouldn't have to add another account.

Make sure your Windows shared folders are shared with "everyone" and also with your windows login name. I'm not sure if both are required but it doesn't hurt.

Also, go to Control Panel / Network and Internet / Network and Sharing Center / Change Advanced Sharing Settings

Click on "All Networks"

Turn on Public Folder sharing

Enable "Media Streaming"

Use 128 bit encryption

Turn ON or OFF password sharing (I have mine turned OFF)(try both if needed)

If needed, I can share photos of kodi and windows settings

I just followed the directions I posted above. No magic silly PuTTy needed. (lol)

I hope this helps. I had the same problem with Windows SMB Shares and got help in this forum.

Accessing Windows Shares using SMB

1. Your Windows shares must have a login and password assigned.

2. The new Windows samba (SMB) DOES NOT allow browsing to the path, so you must type the actual path.

Example: smb://192.168.x.x/movies (use your own IP and folder name)

You can also add the path to your shares by clicking BROWSE and selecting "add network path" and filling out the form shown:

Protocol: Windows Network (SMB)

Server Name: 192.168.x.x (use your own IP address)

Shared Folder: use your folder's name here (ex: movies)

Username: your Windows username

Password: your Windows password

So my issue is definitely BIOS or hardware related. Actually it appears to be distance related with the NUC 8i7BEH. I loaded Windows and Kodi and am seeing generally the same thing except I have found that if I move the remote control to within 6 feet it works consistently but further than that it starts to get sluggish. I don';t know if there is some type of sensitivity setting on these. I am going to dig around Intel's website. I also ordered a separate USB IR receiver. I'll try that and see how it works. I'll also reinstall the LibreElec SSD in the new NUC and try the distance testing.

There are other threads about the newer Intel NUC's lack of IR responsiveness. Here's one: NUC7PJYH CIR working poorly |Intel Communities

Have you tried another router channel ?

Sorry for the confusion. I meant LibreElec. I corrected my post. I had OpenElec on the brain due to the posts above mine.

Oops - disregard this post

I think they meant Libreelec since their other posts mention LE.

Hi blueribb working great thanks,

but how did you manage to exit from the suspend mode with the same remote ?

I'm not really sure what you are asking

Try channel 6 & 11

Try another router

New install today on an older machine. Discovered Thoradia to install SABnzbd, CP, and SR. Initially SR was fine, where I began to add some shows in secession in my current library, Since then, it simply won't serve up. The only thing that comes up doing a system check on it is a timezone error:

I've tried a number of uninstalls and reinstalls. When I uninstall the contents under .kodi/addons/service.sickrage go with it, so not sure if there is another location or cache I can find to purge and hopefully get a new install working.

Have you tried: SiCKRAGE Forums

Did you try a wired ethernet connection ?

Also try rebooting your router.

Look for a check box in the router WAN settings entitled 'Use These DNS Servers'. Make sure that box is checked.
