1. Upgrade to the latest stable LE release.
2. Provide a complete log.

2025-07-15 14:51:22.306 T:958      info <general>: Disabled debug logging due to GUI setting. Level 0.

You forgot to enable debug logging.

2025-07-15 14:52:13.244 T:1020  warning <general>: OpenStream - Unsupported stream 0. Stream disabled.

Probably a codec, which is hardware-decoded on macOS (Dolby Vision etc.). Could you provide the codec info from Kodi on macOS?

Which is irrelevant as my builds are dev builds that do not support auto-updating.

Even better.

You can disable auto-update.

Sorry, I forgot that we are on x86.

Then the equivalent idea is to install latest Debian (or whatever Linux) Live on USB stick, and try that hdparm version. I recently made a Debian 12 stick to bring my parallel port printer back to life.

Quote from IRDC

Since I suspect my AVR is at fault and strangely reacting to the modified picture, is there maybe a way for me to tell the system to output audio only via HDMI1 so I can test this theory?

Yes, use LE's audio output settings.

OK. The next thing I would do is installing RPi OS on another microSD, and see whether it works on that OS.

If it does, then our devs can usually implement it on LE (maybe just copying the command to LE already does the trick).

Nothing in hd-idle.log?

Have a look at the OLEDproc add-on:

OLEDproc add-on

I just finished one little project. The work took me several weeks, but I believe it was worth it.

There are many OLED graphic displays on the market that are cheaper and look better than traditional (character) LCD displays.

I was sorry that so far these displays could not be used as a display for the Kodi multimedia center.

That is why I set myself the task of remedying this shortcoming. I am presenting the result of my work to you today.

The core of the solution is a new add-on called OLEDproc.…

So the first thing is activating the I2C interface. I think OLEDproc is adaptable for Argon ONE V5, but no noob solution.

There is an hd-idle command, which is provided by the System Tools add-on:

RE: [HD-Idle Add-on] Works Once Per Boot

It is difficult to have an explanation for your problem because you tell us almost nothing. So, I will explain what I do and I assure you that it works perfectly:

My system consists of three drives, 'sda' is the LE drive, and 'sdb' and 'sdc' are my USB storage drives, in these conditions I run the following commands in /storage/.config/autostart.sh :

/storage/.kodi/addons/virtual.system-tools/bin/hd-idle -a sdb -i 300 -l /storage/hd-idle.log

It also generates a log file, so maybe helpful for further investigations.

If i understood i can use wget or download it to /storage/.update, is that correct?

Yes.

Yes. Login by SSH, cd /storage/.update, download the new nightly image by wget <URL>, and reboot.

Quote from myksto

I have an USB hard drive connected via USB and have no problem in general but when I pause a movie or anything I'm watching for just few minutes, HDD spins down.

Most users prefer that behavior. So in general it's not a bug, but a feature.

Quote from myksto

I tried to use hdparm in autostart.sh with this command: "hdparm -S 0 /dev/sda2" and also "/usr/bin/hdparm -S /dev/sda2" but with no luck: if I pause my watching, HDD spins down, always.

Quote from myksto

The thing that looks stange to me is the fact that if I lunch the command "hdparm -S 0 /dev/sda2" from an SSH shell when the HDD is sleeping then it start to spin up immediately.

The above facts result in the conclusion that your HDD firmware does the energy management, not LE.

• The HDD firmware spins down whenever idle in mounted mode.
• The HDD firmware takes hdparm as an abstract task, and spins up without further command interpretation.

You're right, it currently shows the menus, but there is an error when trying to play something.

I have the same error on DAZN add-on, so I'm pretty sure that Widevine and/or InputStream Adaptive is responsible.

It's frustrating, because earlier this year it was fixed, and feels like it goes on and off forever:

DAZN doesn't work

Since some weeks there is a problem with DAZN.
I use
Linux LibreELEC 6.6.70 #1 SMP Mon Jan 20 00:43:39 UTC 2025 armv7l GNU/Linux

with LE 12.02 but the issue also were in version 11. I made an update from 11 to 12.02.

In kodi.log i see:

(Code, 9 lines)

I already tried a new installation, with the same issue.
Widevine works with RTLPLUS.
In my DAZN-Account in youth-protection is the status: Your age is verified. (But in the video I want to see there is no age restriction). In the browser on my linux-PC…

Try the Joyn add-on from KodiNerds repo. It should work with current LE.

RPi4 and RPi5 are using 64 bit LibreELEC with 64 bit Widevine now (LE12+). That's a future-proved setup.

Quote from Smojo

I was wondering, if this means, on the long run, when Google will not release a 64Bit arm widewine...
I'm still worried if Google stops releasing 32Bit widewine for arm...

No signs that this happens.

If you still need help, translate your initial post into English.

Quote from update.freak

Will RPi3 and RPi5 and Kodi on Windows be supported?

What's the relation to LibreELEC?
