Try Etcher.

This will work, if you add composite options to config.txt. Read Composite video mode options to find the right options for your TV.

Generally you can just attach your SSD, and access music, videos etc. from LE's file browser. That's the easiest way.

The /storage folder contains config data, too. I would keep those config data on RPi's microSD to have a clean cut among config and media data. Use symbolic links (ln -s command) to link /storage/videos etc. to SSD.

I got a test build installed but cannot get Plex install??? when I open plex it just hangs?

That's another question, not related to your initial post. Please open a new thread at the right sub-forum (Add-on / General support).

You're very new, but you start with a test image? No good.

Use Etcher with a stable image to create your install medium.

Problem solved . I had Sandmann79's repos for Leia AND Matrix installed. I've been chosen the right add-on version (Leia) to install, but the installer selects wrong dependency packages when the Sandmann79 Matrix repo is installed, too. So I had to uninstall that Matrix repo.

It can be a mishmash of packages from different repos after this. So it might be necessary to uninstall packages, who will be needed by the Amazon VOD add-on.

Thanks!

No, use a better PSU (3A).

If you only installed Linux Mint to get Windows and LE, then this showcase could guide you for dual-boot.

Has anybody a clue, how to make Amazon VOD work on LE / RPi 3B+?

I'm running into Python 3 dependency errors when trying to install the Sandmann79 add-on (version 1.0.3 for Kodi Leia).

The solution is easier. Add the line hdmi_force_hotplug=1 to your config.txt.

Thanks for the response Da Flex. Can you guide as to how and where I would submit that bug report, as I've never done it before?

Yes, we have a sub-forum for bug reports. On top of that you'll find a "how-to". Add a link to this thread for additional explanation.

Thanks for the video. It makes me think that the DB is not the problem. Instead the LE player loads different data from the DB (cast, no cast), depending on where it's started from. So this time my advice is to write a bug report for the LE player, not for the DB add-on.

The one thing I do know is that my issue with sound existed before that block was added, as I've had the same issue with sound since I did a clean install.

I would try a fresh install on an external drive anyway (USB stick). A/V latency can be the cause of your issue.

Remove this block from your advancedsettings.xml:

<video>
    <latency>
        <delay>0</delay>
        <refresh>
            <min>23</min>
            <max>24</max>
            <delay>175</delay>
        </refresh>
    </latency>
</video>

I assume you're using an RPi 4B. On that device you can't do this. HDMI1 is for dual-screen mode only. If you need an additional digital audio output, go for an HDMI audio extractor.

chewitt Can we do a device list, updated by users? Something like an initial post by an admin (like me ), and all users can post answers, which devices work for them. Then the admin will add the device to the list at the initial post (device name, chipset, LE version, hardware, user name), and deletes the users post after this.

PS: It's really hard (impossible?) to find a 5GHz device, which is not from Realtek. Many users have this problem.

advancedsettings.xml has some features to play with. I just have no clue if it affects your issue.
