Next attempt will be upgrade through SSH. We will see...

Use wget to download the image at SSH session.

config.txt looks OK. At your asound.conf I don't see a bindings parameter inside pcm.dmixer. Check whether you need to add this.

Maybe you forgot to do the DAC settings at config.txt.

I put the above script, but when restarted, Libreelec freezes and only the logo remains.

Then there is no need to stop /start Kodi, as mentioned by comrade chewitt. Try this:

#!/bin/sh

pactl load-module module-udev-detect
pactl set-default-sink alsa_output.0.iec958-stereo
pactl set-default-source bluez_source.74_9E_AF_73_EC_4F.a2dp_source

Many thanks Da Flex, at the "Update channel" I see the different versions and I have choosen 9.0 (MR) but the Available Version tab is empty. 9,2 is also empty and 8.0 shows 8.2.5. I upgraded to 8.2.5 sucessfully but 9.0 and 9.2 stills being empty.

How can I upgrade to 9.0 then?

Then download the image manually, and put it into the update folder.

Do you have the update channel 9.0 at the LE settings menu? If yes, then the upgrade should work fine by using the menu, and your settings will stay.

• Login by SSH
• Open the file with the "nano" editor: nano /storage/.config/autostart.sh
• Write this into the file:

#!/bin/sh

systemctl stop kodi
pactl load-module module-udev-detect
pactl set-default-sink alsa_output.0.iec958-stereo
pactl set-default-source bluez_source.74_9E_AF_73_EC_4F.a2dp_source
systemctl start kodi

• Store the file by key combination "Control" + "o", and press "Enter" to confirm writing
• Press the key combination "Control" + "x" to finish the editor
• Reboot LE to see whether the commands inside autostart.sh do work

Put the calls into /storage/.config/autostart.sh.

Seems like my post got deleted from the bug report forum :-s

If you are sure that it has been deleted, then your report maybe don't complies with the rules for bug reports (see first pinned post at the sub-forum). Try again. I think it's worth it, because bugs on RPi 4B are normal at this early state of development.

Check your storage device for bad blocks.

Looks like LE can't deal with the screen mode you mentioned:

PS: Whoops, you have an RPi 4B, so you have no option to downgrade to 9.0.x. Write a bug report.

Quote from VolkoV

Can I do that without complete reinstalling?

Yes, you can. Go to the LE 9.0 download channel at the LE settings.

I already did the same procedure, and it worked fine.

I currently use 9.0.2, because it's the most stable choice for all RPi lower than version 4B.

I can test my German keyboard, if you still have issues after the downgrade.

Can you please downgrade to LE 9.0.2 for testing, and try again?

Quote from revz

Downgraded and booted 9.0.2... Booted in to **SAFE MODE** still

Please provide another log file for 9.0.2.

It looks like broken composite PAL is a known bug:

raspberry pi zero w, kodi works with composite ntsc but it doesn't with composite pal

Can you confirm that it spins down on other OS'es? Some drives simply don't have the capability.

Quote from Divemaskstrap

Anyway, I bought myself an single LCD display from Adafruit with HD44780 driver support. I still have to solder it, apply the LCDproc software, and we're good to go. Then I can also use the Pi without a TV monitor for listing to my music

Sounds like a plan! Let us know when you made it.

I currently do a little OLED project for my other RPi (headless Raspbian), that's why I'm interested.

The OLED also uses I2C, which needs a workaround if one already has a power button at the SCL pin of the I2C bus.

If you don't have a power button, then it should work without problems.

Quote from Z06Frank

I say mostly because the "Audio Source" setting in this same section does NOT seem to stick. What I mean is I set the source to my Boss DAC. Then try a reboot and go to Live TV....it reverts back to "pi:HDMI".

Does it stick if you put hdmi_drive=1 back into config.txt?
