Fine. If you still get errors, do this tests to check RAM, PSU and temperature.

Because gaming by using add-ons will be a huge topic soon, I would like to suggest to install such a sub-forum right now. It's relevant for different add-ons, including game controllers. A lot of stuff, worth to bundle it. No ROM support might be a good idea (legal issues).

Thanks for the tests! I think the HDMI dummy plug doesn't works, because other screen modes from the TV overwrite the fixed mode of the dummy plug. If we could force the TV only to receive HDMI data, then it might be OK.
My next theory is that newer TV's have higher HDMI transmission speed, compared to older ones. You have been tried different HDMI cables. Be sure that the HDMI cable complies the newest HDMI standard for high speed transmission.

Can you see anything in the logs that might lead to freezing or the inability to create a crash log?
Yes, your second log file shows read errors at "special://masterprofile". Kodi stores configuration data there, and read errors at this directory can cause crashes. Please check your MicroSD card. There are several diagnostic programs for free out there. Sometimes read errors go hand-in-hand with increasing heat. Correct booting doesn't means much, when it's about broken storage devices.

I did some research, because your project is exotic and cool. Try this command to force PWM output. If it works, you can add it to autostart.sh. If it doesn't works, read the rest of the linked thread.

Thanks. Please add my line for testing. I heard that newer kernels need that parameter to make SPI work.

If you are 100% sure about MicroSD card and docker containers, the next step is activating log level 1 and reading kodi.log for errors.

OK, your GPIO audio pins are 18 (GPIO_GEN5) and 19 (SPI_MOSI). Do you have this line in your config.txt?
Codedtparam=spi=on -
I'm using the same LE version on my RPi3B+, and it runs fine. I don't use docker containers, so that could be the cause in your setup.

Maybe grab audio from the 4 poles jack.

It's 100% not a cable issue. I just today had openelec running just fine. With the modified xorg.conf file. Clean install of LibreElec and I'm back to a quarter screen. The previous link was someone else who had a similar problem.
Yes, this is no cable issue for sure. The expected screen modes are in your xorg.conf file, and the screen modes you actually get are in your guisettings.xml file (whitelist part). So, there is a difference. Can you post both files, please? Which resolution / vertical frequency do you use when you get a too small display?

It's much easier to create a video playlist by scripting.

So you are saying I can play TV channels on the Kodi PVR IPTV Simple Client and stream them to a display/other device via UPnP ?
It's crystal clear what I said. You said it's about YouTube - no need to stream this to another client.
What do you want to do? You are asking a wide range of questions, and your goal is still unknown.

1. Aren't USB sticks used on TV sets to stream live (playback recorded content on USB sticks), if no transcoding is needed?
2. While we are on the subject, is it true that UPnP cannot do live streaming, i.e., can only stream recorded (library) content?
And for live IPTV streaming you would need a UPnP alternative like IPTV for Sony PlayStation 3 - xupnpd ?
3. So...how do you download Youtube type content from LE/Kodi into your USB stick?
A live stream and a playback from USB stick are two different types of transmission. Content providers want to give the same user experience, but technically it's different.
UPnP AV can do live streaming.
I have never recorded YouTube content, no idea.
-
For #1 you mean live streaming?
No, just simply stored files. But you probably know that this works.
For live streaming the player usually buffers content to the RAM. An USB stick can't be the source of a stream. A server has to do that, because permanent calculation (transmission protocol handling) has to be done while streaming. An USB stick can't calculate.

Answer 1.: If you have a movie on a connected USB/SD medium, LE will automatically mount it, and you can play it from the "Video" menu.
Answer 2.: Please describe the stream. Does the provider allows to record it?

There is a spindown command available for hard disks. I think an OS is free to use that command at shutdown or not. It should make no difference, un-mounting the file system is the only important thing.
