Take into account that good shielding is a major part of any high speed cable. If this is missing, chances are that HDMI mode can't be established, and connection switches into DVI mode.

I have tried multiple HDMI cables (all work with other devices)

Does this include other 4K devices? If not, make sure you are using a cable conform to HDMI 2.0 or 2.1 standard. Those are made to deal with 4K data rate. I think something is fishy with your current HDMI connection.

OK. Maybe you can help to implement this function.

Try to play this again:

Maybe you have to re-rip the DVD with different audio settings. Also make sure you are using only two output channels on LE's audio settings.

PS: "Bl-ood" word edited to avoid automatic forum censorship.

Update: After some dev conversation, it turned out that the above behavior is normal. It's very likely not the cause of system freezes.

Please rule out local network issues. To do so, disable network shares, and play something from USB.

I have an update regarding freeze events as now it freezes regardless whether it plays video or audio (system lives when no media content is being played).

This changes my theory. Now I guess the wrong graphics driver was loaded:

Does video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080@60eD ("e" for "hdmi_force_hotplug") change something?

Interesting . Most German users prefer to get US Netflix to be in front of each story timeline.

apn64 Thank you! Any info about this hardware is helpful for other users.

Unsurprisingly, the zero-2 choked on 1080p MKV X265 (HEVC) files, presumably due to lack of HW acceleration.

So Netflix 720p does work on RPi Zero 2 W?

What does the D do?

Adding "video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080@60" to cmdline.txt allows it to boot but the screen detects it in DVI mode, just like with the case.

Use video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080@60D instead.

Isn't Moonlight what you are looking for?

For Chrome you have to create a special audio setup, including volume control. Read here: Click!

Same issue when "pass-through" is activated on LE's audio settings?

• Please only provide requested documents to keep the thread easy to read.
• Provide a list of missing functions. Trigger at least one of those missing functions for a kodi.log. It's needed to help you.
• Do you still use the same IR dongle / remote control, as you did on LE 7.0.3?

LE's default shell is a Bourne shell (sh). That's why .profile is in use when starting a terminal session.

You could edit the PATH variable to start your custom pastekodi first.
