Using "getedid create" will capture the 4K modes, but I think the AVR will fail to pass a 4K HDMI signal even if you try to force it that way - this stuff should "just work" without forcing. I think you need to experiment with connecting the AVR to other HDMI ports on the TV and/or connecting the RPi5 to other ports on the AVR. It is common for HDMI ports to have different capabilities and perhaps one side is set for "PC" mode or such? - the list of resolutions reminds me of standard vesa modes for that kind of use.

All HDMI Ports are full. I have a Denon X4800H from 2024 and he has 8k Support.

Following case is working (until reboot!)

- Pi direct connect to TV (4k recognize)

- Switch HDMI Cabels to Pi --> Denon AVR HDMI IN --> Denon HDMI Monitor 1 OUT --> TV

WORKS until REBOOT

Why is it not possible to generate an edid file and force this edid if the PI is booting?

What im doing wrong?

Pi to tv and earc for sound from tv to avr?

Hm, maybe a way but i have hyperion and that will be lose in this case.

Nothing should change. The RPi5 should continue using 1080p desktop resolution; this is the default and best setting. You should now be able to go into Kodi video settings and add 3840x2160 resolutions to the mode whitelist so that Kodi can use them for 4K playback. See https://wiki.libreelec.tv/configuration/4k-hdr for more info.

I would remove the getedid stuff unless you plan to boot the RPi5 with the AVR disconnected, it's not really needed.

Hi chewitt

Thanks for your reply.

I know the Wiki Link and i fully agree. GUI should be 1080p, i would like to set resolutions in the whistelist.

But i cant!

Pls look at the screenshots. With AVR i cant set 2160p, direct connect from PI to TV i can set it.

How can i force the whitelist resolutions?

Hi all,

today i received my new 4k TV. My old one is Full HD.

I have a Pi 5 and a Denon X 4800H which are connected via

Pi 5 --> Denon HDMI IN --> Denon HDMI Out --> TV

On this way i got just 1080p in my possible resolutions.

I delete the edid via "getedid delete" and reboot the PI. Nothing has changed.

So, i connect the TV directly to my PI and i got 4k resolutions.

I create the edid file via "getedid create" and save it to my laptop.

How can i set it, that this new edid will always load? It will be overwritten if i go back to PI 5 --> Denon AVR --> TV

The generated file is under:

/storage/.config/firmware/edid/edid-HDMI-A-1.bin

Thanks ins advance

Hello,

how can i post this JSON Command via SSH under Librelec?

curl -X POST -H "content-type:application/json" http://192.168.133.114:8090/json-rpc?request{"command":"componentstate","componentstate":{"component":"ALL","state":false}}

--> Doesnt work:

LibreELEC:~ # curl -X POST -H "content-type:application/json" http://192.168.133.114:8090/json-rpc?request{"command":"componentstate","componentstate":{"component":"ALL","state":false}}
curl: (3) nested brace in URL position 84:
http://192.168.133.114:8090/json-rpc?request{command:componentstate,componentstate:{component:ALL,state:false}}

Thanks!

????????????

oO ... are you sure that are enough question marks?

On RPi5 you have to manually run "rpi-eeprom-update -a" via ssh to update the bootloader eeprom firmware.

so long,

Hias

Other way is download the zip, write the image and put into Pi 5. Wait fpr green screen and finish.

But "rpi-eeprom-update -a" is more comfortable.

Can you include new firmware in 11.0.5 ?

Kodi Nexus 20.3 was released yesterday.

Will there be LE 11.0.5 based on 20.3 or full focus on LE 12?

Is there any improvement from Pi 4 to Pi 5 in case of HDR 4k content?

We are talking about PI 5 - not 4

Hias, thank you!

I will do the first option.

Will this Firmware also included into nightly for LE 11 with Pi 5?

Hello,

how is the right way to update EEPROM/Firmware for PI 5?

Install LE and then (Link: https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/…g-your-firmware) :

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo rpi-eeprom-update -a

or write image to SD Card from here

If you have one on LE11 and one on LE12 it will "work" but they're accessing different versions of the DB so you loose watched/unwatched status and you'll need to scrape new content into both DB's. The LE12 nightlies are stable to use. There will be a kernel bump to Linux 6.6 at some point soon; that's one of our critera before moving to LE12 beta > release.

For PI 5 youll find nightly releases with LE 11 here:

No. Don't turn it off, you need to reboot the RPi4 so the update gets installed.

If that was successful LE won't boot any longer on RPi4 but should work fine on the RPi5.

If you turn it off without installing the update it won't boot on RPi5 (as it's still using the RPi4 installation) and thus the RPi5 update will never get installed.

so long,

Today i got my Pi 5 - this works perfectly. But you have to disable your boost settings from PI 4

Hope for LE 11 release for the Pi 5.

Thanks!

Hias, thank you very much!

I will give a feedback
