is it known, that a fresh installation of LE 12.0.1 along with either TVhead4.2 or 4.3. on Raspi 3 B+ is not really working?

Be more precise.

We already had it with the 2GB variant (see post #4). The 8GB issue is new here, since they've changed hardware.

Last quoted code line seems to say that it's upscaled. Please correct me, if you actually get another resolution.

The log looks fine, just the harmless errors that I see all the time. So I think the TV can't deal with an HDMI param.

Try this (same as before, but without the "M"): "video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080@60".

Seems like the TV upscales the resolution (try to avoid that in TV settings). Try "video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080M@30". I guess the TV will double the refresh rate automatically, so you still get 60Hz at the end.

@contialdo Congrats! Maybe you got a higher level of electromagnetic interference now. Your surrounding might be the cause.

Y, sorry. That's the file I modded: cmdline.txt.

You have to add the param from chewitt at the same line as all other params, only separated by a space sign.

There's a timer on my ability to post so rather than respond to folks with quotes I'll have to roll everything up in a single post...

Yeah, cause you're a young lad here.

We still don't know your LE hardware. To my knowledge, most desktop PCs don't support CEC.

Please check CEC connectivity from SSH:

RE: Rpi4 + Samsung TV - No HDMI-CEC since 11.0.5/6?

If chewitt serious recommendation don‘t ends in a success, you can stop KODI and afterwards check CEC directly.

• stop KODI
  systemctl stop kodi
• scan CEC bus
  echo 'scan' | cec-client -s -d 1

Because I have seen, that you also tested something regarding the 4K/60 issue in combination with your Denon AVR: Maybe you have a outdated copy of EDID data locally?

When LE is running, witch to TV mode, and then back to AV input.

CEC should work. HDMI always has the same wiring, just the cable shielding is better in higher versions.

Rule out electromagnetic interference. Take the RPi away from the TV for a test, and use a proper HDMI 2.0 /2.1 cable.

If it doesn't work, install Raspberry Pi OS on another microSD, and give it a shot. That's the gold standard OS for all RPi.

RPi3 runs at 32 bit mode, RPi 4 at 64 bit.

It's good to report problems, but we have to be more precise before developers get active.

So if you create a swap file just for testing, we could figure it out, and devs might start working.

Quote from TnT666

So it seems like the implementation of the WiFi code on LE12 for the RPI4 has some issues with memory leak/hogging.

I haven't seen such issues at the logs, so I assume LE 12 just uses more RAM. Unfortunately you don't want to fix it by creating a swap file.

It's scary that a read-only access damages files. I assume a lot of buffering is going on in the background, because audio is large, and has a lossless codec.

• format your USB drive as EXT4

• if it doesn't work, create a swap file (I suggest to create it at the same USB drive, swap file size: twice RPi RAM size)

  [How to] Enable swapfile on LibreELEC

Which audio format / codec do you play? I don't see it in the link.

Funny issue, I never heard about that. Like a broken vinyl record.

Playback is a read-only process, so LE can't be the cause. I think your USB drive has reached end-of-life.

jordixPI3 Thanks for the report. Support for OPi 3 LTS is quite new, so it's normal to have smaller issues.

Do you get the same error without the USB drives?
