Suggested solution: Buy an HDMI audio splitter, and go audio-only (optical S/PDIF) from splitter to AVR.

Looks like HDMI does the negotiation for the signal chain, and chooses the best mode for all devices.

If you hardcode the mode, it will have no effect, because you have one device, which is not compatible to the selected HDMI mode.

Ive been using LibreElec 8.0.1 as used in the thread (in an attempt to follow it exactly)

Please update to LE 9.2, and try again. So you can be sure that older issues have been fixed, and we get a common starting point to solve open issues.

Using config.txt is the right way to hardcode a resolution. Please verify this values:

hdmi_group=1

hdmi_mode=97

According to this, the values might be wrong.

Probably possible, but not a good idea. Read here.

I never heard about this issue from other users, so my guess is missing wattage for the adapter. Try a different PSU solution for your system, like explicit adapter powering.

The kodi.old.log is the one you should post after crash and reboot. Read here about logging on LE.

Where is the movie located, local or server?

How do you play the movie, by using Mediathekview add-on?

Has Mediathekview an installation dependency to the MySQL connector add-on?

Which settings have you made at the Mediathekview add-on?

Which settings have you made at the MySQL connector add-on?

PS: Don't forget to provide a complete log.

What do you do on LE to trigger those MySQL calls?

So I guess that some forgotten edid is not the problem.

I was expecting such result. You're right, the log doesn't write facts about the crash.

Kodi had issues with ION before, and maybe they have to do the same fix for LE 9.2 again. Read here.

So it's probably a problem at the kernel, and I can't help on that level of developement. Write a bug report.

But maybe some of this information left inside my installation.

You can use EDID commands to go back to vanilla state.

I played test_copy.ts from your first link on my RPi 3B+.

Sound works fine, but I had to disable audio passthrough at settings -> system -> audio. Give it a try.

Is it possible to update to v9.2 and go back to v9.02 via the LibreElec update dialog?

I did a downgrade from LE 9.1.x to 9.0.2 once by using the GUI. No problems. Should work with 9.2, too.

Does it crash when you have no HDMI devices connected?

We have good reasons to ask for complete logs only.

Read here to learn how to provide a link to a log.

Especially the end of the log might help. The snippet doesn't tell the story to me.

Do you have the shared data on an external drive? If yes, then probably your file manager will not follow symlinks. LE creates symlinks for each external drive to generate Linux mount points.

I don't know what setting I toggled or what happened but now netflix videos have very poor quality... but surprise! hyperion works ok with them... I disabled resolution limit in both netflix and inputstream addons but still very low quality video stream...

Pardon the interruption. Your team mate HiassofT came up with a solid theory about missing RAM. That would explain your issues.

Using the HDMI splitter might be easier, but that's your choice. In the digital world there should be no weak and strong signal, so I guess it's a timing issue. I wish we had a tool to explicitly send HDMI commands from LE. Then you could send a wake-up-from-suspend signal, and see what happens.

Use command line (ssh root@<LIBRE_ELEC_IP>) or PuTTY instead.
