Can you ssh in on 10.0.3 and capture debug logs?

I can try to boot it up with Ubuntu if you like.
Ah - the link was labelled "Ubuntu pastebin" which I assumed you had named as a failed dmesg from an Ubuntu log.
But I see now that was just a default label as the paste site was hosted by Ubuntu. Don't worry about the Ubuntu boot.
A swap test will be more useful.

that exists log is here: Ubuntu Pastebin
More words would be useful. Can you confirm that you installed Ubuntu on your pi that has problems with libreelec,
and it produces that error in dmesg?
To rule out any impact from connected devices, can you boot the pi with as little as possible connected (no usb devices, no hat, no hdmi).
Just Pi, power and ethernet (so you can ssh in and get dmesg log). Does the dmesg have that error in? If so I'd say it's a hardware problem with that pi.
Doing a swap test (with a different pi4) could also confirm this.

Leave config.txt unchanged.
Try adding to cmdline.txt (end of existing line)
Codevideo=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080@60D(assuming your display supports 1080p60).
Make sure you use the first hdmi port (closest to power socket).
-
Would the output from dmesg show any instance of an under voltage condition.
Ideally it should. But the log shows:
CodeFeb 02 15:29:50 LibreELEC kernel: Firmware transaction timeoutwhich means firmware isn't responding to requests (it has likely crashed).
And as the firmware checks for under-voltage, it may be impossible to get that information into kernel log.
-
Can you post output of "vcgencmd log msg" (e.g. piped through paste if that working).
Can you confirm you have no custom settings (like overclock) in config.txt?
If you have access to another pi4, then trying it with your sdcard, power supply etc may be useful.
I'd also be interested if RPiOS works correctly? It could be a hardware issue, but I'd expect that to affect other distributions.

Are you connected to the denon amp through HDMI?
The source (Pi) will read the EDID from the sink (display or AVR) and that will include audio capabilities.
A faulty HDMI cable may make it impossible to read the edid.
ssh in and run:
Codeedid-decode /sys/devices/platform/gpu/drm/card?/card?-HDMI-A-1/edidand you should find an "Audio Data Block" describing the capabilities.

Is this for sure working? I have my tv wake up now but not my avr... Tried every setting with CEC. Cmdline.txt is also not editable from the OS? Thanks
/flash is mounted read-only by default, but you can change that.
Codemount -o remount,rw /flash -
The article you linked to says:
QuotePCM: This stands for “pulse-code modulation.” Use this setting if the external device you have connected to the HDMI port has already processed the sound, and you just want it to come out of your TV’s speakers.
This setting configuration for the Samsung TV changes the signal to 2.0 PCM as it passes through the TV. If you select PCM even though you have a home theater system or soundbar connected, the sound system will only receive 2.0 channel sound and the result will not be multi-channel surround sound, even if the sound system is capable of multi-channel PCM audio.
So that setting is 2 channel PCM only.
Also you are using SPDIF, which can handle stereo PCM, or compressed 5.1 using AC3 or DTS. It won't support multichannel PCM.
In kodi, set channels to 2.0. Enable AC3 passthrough. Enable AC3 transcode. You will get multichannel output from your 5.1 speakers (it will be using AC3 as the actual format that goes over SPDIF).
-
You can disable it in kodi: https://kodi.wiki/view/Settings/System/Input
There is almost certainly a similar setting on TV. It may be referred to by one of these names.
-
You are getting repeated select button presses over CEC (i.e. from TV or other HDMI connected device).
Try disabling CEC in settings.

this might be it: llctl

If I revert the backport of this PR (https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/21410), the closed caption subs work again.
Interestingly with it working, kodi sees one subtitle stream.
With it not working kodi sees two subtitle streams (but neither show anything).
I've pinged the dev, so may be no need for the issue if they can reproduce issue.
-
I can play that stream (in UK). And it doesn't have close captions on LibreELEC on Pi.
It does have closed captions on VLC.
I installed kodi on Ubuntu 22.10. It describes itself as:
Kodi from Debian (20.0-ALPHA2 Debian package version: 2:20.0~alpha2+dfsg1-1build1). Platform: Linux x86 64-bit
and it behaves the same as kodi on pi. No subs or closed captions visible (although I can choose between two options).
As this seems to be a general kodi issue, it's best to report it here.
Make sure you follow the template, include a debug log, indictate which versions of kodi this worked on, and which it fails on
Include the URL to reproduce the issue, and hopefully someone who knows this code can help.

Can you test with "Allow hardware acceleration with DRM PRIME" disabled?
If that works, test with "Allow using DRM PRIME decoder".
I know the streams may not play well with these options disabled, but it may narrow down where the problem lies if you confirm if closed captions start working.
It would be helpful if you can find a file that has the issue that isn't geolocked.
-
Yes, disabling DRM Prime isn't recommended but provides a workaround if you just need to screenshot video occasionally.
-
Perhaps not an important feature for most users but the screenshot command still does not work in LE 10/11 (it does not save the screenshot picture like in release 9.x but only the active GUI screen).
Assuming this is an occasional requirement, if you disable DRM Prime in video acceleration settings first, I believe screenshot will work.

Use 10.0.3 and add "vc4.force_hotplug=1" to cmdline.txt (on end of existing line).
