I guess your PC has an LSPCon chip to convert from DP to HDMI. Those chips have known driver issues, and such issues are very likely unsolvable by us (search for "LSPCon" on the forum).

Make sure your BIOS is up-to-date. If your hardware support page offers video driver updates, install the latest. They sometimes include firmware for the LSPCon driver. You probably need Windows to install those updates.

You probably get your videos from illegal sources, and they aren't encoded correctly:

Does Android use OpenGL or Vulkan for this?

Android supports OpenGLES and Vulkan. I don't think it's used pretty much, because they use a lot of hardware acceleration for video playback. RPi does the opposite: It uses a lot of software decoding, which needs more processing power.

So both platforms might deliver the same performance on different hardware.

When using the Generic (non-Legacy) LE, it should work like that:

RE: RPi4 GPIO using in LibreELEC

I've been installed a power button and a status LED on my RPi3B+. This works for RPi4B, too. After SSH login, you can use the nano editor to create or edit all necessary files.

Power Button Hardware Part

Use GPIO03 (Pin #05) and the opposite Ground (Pin #06) to connect a push button for power on / off.

Power Button Scripting Part

Add dtoverlay=gpio-shutdown to config.txt.

Switching off will let the shutdown menu appear.

To shutdown instantly instead, create this …

Replace "keyboard" by "remote" at file name and XML tag.

You can change the power button behavior by key mapping. Create a keyboard.xml file. Example:

So is it some kind of miscommunication between LE and LG TV? Who can tell...

• make sure your HDMI cable is conform to HDMI 2.0 / 2.1 standard
• try other HDMI pots on your TV

Add "textmode" to boot options, and the system will start as console.

Raspberry Pi Legacy Tools Add-on

I would like to know the reasons why the RPi.GPIO library was dropped from the Raspberry Pi Tools add-on. In my opinion, this is a mistake. I'll explain. I am the author of the OLEDproc plugin. It depends on several libraries, including the luma.oled and luma.core libraries. And therein lies the trouble. The luma.core library needs the RPi.GPIO library to work. I am convinced that it is unthinkable and also pointless for me to create some clone of the luma.core library, which would use, for…

Pro tip: Always use the search function from the forums main page before posting anything.

Our devs will make it part of the LE image. Check nightly builds from time to time.

For the best experience in mid 2024, which hardware would you choose?

Wrong question. Describe what you need, and then WE make suggestions for YOU.

Learn to speak for yourself.

Have a look at Settings -> System -> Input -> Peripherals -> CEC Adapter.

As you can see, you can only use one HDMI device as CEC target, and that's probably your projector.

Other CEC devices only have an on/off/standby switch via CEC.

The second impact of the Kodi desktop resolution is how media is scaled. If "Adjust Refresh" is not enabled, Kodi will scale all media played up or down to the desktop resolution and refresh rate, which by default is 1080p @ 60 fps.

So enable "Adjust Refresh".

Thanks, probably my Firefox has a bug.

Does Balena Etcher verification work for the written image?

My power LED also doesn't work with standard RPi Tools. It's one of the coolest RPi features to program small displays.
