Thanks guys for your help! But the problem was a hardware problem. I went to my local RPi shop and the Pi was exchanged. Something damaged (as expected) the HDMI Port. Works fine now! Topic can be closed now!

No TV or DVI monitor available to test? It's pretty basic to test the hardware first.

The problem does not lie within my other devices...screen cables etc. everything working as usal with all my other devices...did also work with the old pi 3 model B...

Here are the specs. Should support interlaced signals...

Optoma EX774N Specs - CNET

....hmm i guess that is not really the problem. Thing is that i already tried different screens and the first installation on my samsung monitor worked. First install i had a signal but now not even this screens works anymore.... Can i check somehow if the graphics or the hdmi port is still working correctly?

Shouldn't the output of tvservice -s different after changing the config.txt file?

...i don'think it is an cable issue. I tried it with different cables working with other computers...

Intresting is that i tried it with the follwing configs:

# Force HDMI even if unplugged or powered off
#hdmi_force_hotplug=1
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=9
hdmi_drive=1

and uncommented

# Force HDMI even if unplugged or powered off
hdmi_force_hotplug=1
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=9
hdmi_drive=1

Both is leading to the exact same output of tvservice -s

state 0x40001 [NTSC 4:3], 720x480 @ 60.00Hz, interlaced

...The configs don't seem to work ....

Thx for help...

I got the follwing output:

with hdmi_force_hotplug=1

state 0x12000a [HDMI DMT (4) RGB full 4:3], 640x480 @ 60.00Hz, progressive

And without hdmi_force_hotplug=1

state 0x40001 [NTSC 4:3], 720x480 @ 60.00Hz, interlaced

Beamer was switched on and connect prior to boot.

... How can I enable ssh from a fresh installation?

I guess you are right. I tried a new installation of libreelec, but still the hdmi is not working. Everything else seems to work correctly (green light and red light is flashing) Is there anything I can do about the hdmi output? Could it be that it is somehow damaged?

Arrrgh....can't get any output ....Actually it is a very old beamer, which might be part of the problem.

Try to increase the config_hdmi_b o o s t parameter in config.txt (the word b o o s t is censored on this forum for some reason, so no spaces)

Increasing the value didn't work for me....still no output.

It is working without any option changes on LibreELEC. I have been tested it with Raspberry Pi 3B+, a HDMI cable and a HDMI to DVI adapter on a PC monitor. Make sure to first connect the display device, and then power on the Raspberry Pi. LibreELEC figures out, what display is connected, while booting.

PS: It could be a PSU issue, too. The 3B+ needs more wattage compared to the 3B.

I already many different variants but that didn't solve the issue. I bought myself a new rpi adapter with 2.5 wattage, which should fit quite well.

Interestingly the older rpi3 worked fine out of the box with the same setup...some more suggestions, what I could do? Thanks for advise!!!

Edit:

I tried a different cable (vga) with a hdmi to vga adapter. And now it becomes strange, because this setting normally works everywhere i have been so far. But still the same problem...

Maybe i give some more information about my setup:

RPI 3 Model B+

Hifiberry dacplus
RPI Powersupply (2.5)

To the RPi connected:

USB Hub (with its own Powersupply)

LAN Cable

Cinch to the Hifiberry

Hi everyone!

I am quite new to libreelec and have the follwing issue:

I use a hdmi to dvi cable to connect the rpi3 b+ to my beamer. with the older rpi3 b it worked like a charm (with retropie). After installing the os (with a normal hdmi cable connected) i tried it with the hmdi>dvi cable which is giving me no output.

I already tried this:

mount -o remount,rw /flash

nano /flash/config.txt

I then uncommented the hdmi_force_hotplug=1 But that didn't change a thing...Any suggestions here?
