It does not solve anything. It is more like a ugly hack to get hdmi signal back without kodi or box restart.
Sometimes when switching resolution or refresh hdmi signal is lost. As far as i saw in the forum i am not alone with this and it seams to be Denon related. My hack just plays 3x 2sec clips with different refresh rates. It is further up in this thread where i state what workarounds i use.
new 12.2.1 version over here #93
version 12.2.1-#260521 Generic, RPi5, RPi4
download link https://sky42.libreelec.tv/release/12.2/
based on LE 12.2.1 https://github.com/LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv/tree/12.2.1
changelog
- upstream update
- added Generic-YUV device with Intel i915 fallback YCbCr 4:4:4
my source diff https://github.com/LibreELEC/Libr…v:12.2.1-260521
atoulmin asked me for a YCbCr 4:4:4 version for his N150 connected to a projector.
I reactivated a patch from smp where i did build a forced YCbCr 4:4:4 version in 2024 11.95.1.
Generic-YUV Infos https://sky42.libreelec.tv/release/12.2/Generic/Generic-YUV/
- it is for picky projector / beamer that are not want to do RGB
- update 1st to my version Generic 12.2.1-#260521
- then update to Generic-YUV
- back 1st to my Generic 12.2.1-#260521 then something else
- Short test on my N350 -> X6700H -> Sony A95L show it does what it is suposed to do. All is in YCbCr 4:4:4 says the info screen of my Denon with or without HDR10.
t00nt00n happy to hear it helps
OK flawless was not correct.
Sorry.
I use 2 workarounds
1. for 4K 23.976Hz bug post #46 the script to restrict it to 10 bit (or one of my images that where the script is included)
2. HDMI resync my Denon X6700H
- download HDMI resync script
- extract in /storage
- reconfigure your remote (a button you dont need, for me Voice Search)
- on that button i put with a custom keyboard.xml the script for HDMI resync
- keyboard.xml entry <browser_search>System.Exec(/storage/hdmi-switch/bin/switch-23-50-60.sh)</browser_search>
- every time i start TV/Denon after 5sec wait i push that button and sometimes when i lose HDMI signal
This is a close as i can get to flawless with a x86_64 that does HDR10 too. 1st with a N100 and shortly switch to a N350.
As far as i know the 4K 23.976Hz bug and Denon HDMI resync problem does not go away with LE13 with the 6.18 kernel. If i hab seen signs that it works i would have build a Generic LE12.2 with kernel 6.18.
original LE 12.2.1 should be perfect on your N150.
Running my 12.2.1-#251031 kernel 6.16.12 on a Z350-0db N350 with C States enabled flawless.
write a systemd mount unit file like
https://wiki.libreelec.tv/how-to/mount_network_share
but for a local Filesystem
the kernel should have already started the raid 5
check with cat /proc/mdstat
uploaded full 12.2.1 release
still very busy at work
I uploaded a 12.2 up2date release
sky42 LibreELEC community builds
release post will follow when I find time. very busy at work since 4 month.
*** for testing only ***
please don't ask for support, it is just the 1st compiled version i have done
this is just for testing
i only use Generic so far
version 12.2-preview-#250803 of the upcoming LE 12.2

my source diff https://github.com/LibreELEC/Libr…ibreelec-12.2.x
upstream updates from 12.0 to 12.2 include e.g.
- kernel 6.12 RPi
- kernel 6.16 for all other
- mesa 2.5
- and many more
I started a new job a moth ago and I am pretty busy, but I plan to update my LE12 and maybe even with a new kernel for generic.
So far there is no really good reason to build a new Generic.
Yesterday a openssl update was merged and for that I will most likely spin up a new release.
hcliec001 So far no Ryzen at home ever. Lots of Opteron and EPYC at work, but without any use of graphics.
Sorry i can not speak for things like saturation, because my eyes are pretty bad.
To be fair i use N100, RPi4, RPi5. If somthing is fishy on m Z100 i try one of the RPi's.
And for DolbyVision i use a CE S905X4 box.
My Z100 with the N100 is my daily driver, a bit faster then a RPi5 and i am fairly happy with it. I found just one problem and a workaround for that.
Intel Alder Lake 2160p @ 23.976 Hz passthrough HD Audio dropouts (i7-1270p/N100)
I did build a LE12 with kernel 6.12 from master and added yesterday the r8169 driver from 6.13.11. This is a bit hacky but i hope it works. On my Z100 with 8125B NIC it works.
to try download version 12.0.2-#250416 from https://sky42.libreelec.tv/release/12.0/G…ic/kernel-6.12/
release post is here LE 12.0 added lvm2, luks (dm-crypt, veracrypt), mdraid, ext4 encryption
I am fairly confident RedHat will backport 8125D support to 6.12 over time, because that is the kernel for the new RHEL 10 that will be released most likely this quarter of 2025. Then i can probably copy a less hacky driver from there 6.12 kernel source code.
*** for testing only ***
version 12.0.2-#250416-6.12
for Generic only
This version is build to check if Realtek NIC 8125D is working e.g. in the NUC 14 Essential.
On my Z100 with 8125B the NIC is still working (since yesterday).
I needed to disable some sourcecode from the 6.13.11 r8169 driver to build it with 6.12, but i think it should work without.
