Thanks for the clarification! I honestly wasn’t aware of that. I’ve been using my Raspberry Pi 4 for years without applying any special configuration, so I assumed my settings were still being used.
Given that the config.txt entries are ignored in this case, could you please confirm whether audio output through HDMI1 is the default behaviour?
I assume that apart from specifying video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080M@60D in the cmdline.txt file, I don’t need anything additional, correct?
I have tested various cables, splitters and other components. Everything seems generally fine, however, I still occasionally experience an issue where, after booting LE, the logo appears in only one quarter of the screen. I have also noticed that some 1080p movies display in the same way (only 1/4 of the screen).
At the moment, I am using two micro-HDMI to HDMI cables. HDMI1 is connected to the Sony AVM and is used only for audio output. HDMI0 goes into the EZXCOO splitter, where one output (with a scaler enabled) is connected to an older 1080p TV. The other HDMI output from the splitter goes directly to the projector.
My config contains only:
# HDMI0
hdmi_force_hotplug:0=1
hdmi_enable_4kp60=1
#HDMI1
hdmi_force_hotplug:1=1
hdmi_blank:1=1
hdmi_drive:1=2

I have replaced the adapter with the cable, it goes to spliter then the spliter sends 4k to projekctor and 1080p to TV, seems to be fine. I left gui in 4k.
There is one more think, I can hear a little noise in my 2.0 speaker sending signal from spdif digi standard, I could not hear anything on RPI4.
I think it has been always 1080p and that is the reason. It is connected to 4k projector so it is then just 1/4 of scree. When I applied your suggestion the booting logo was the same and then the gui sticked to it (1/4). I had to move panes to make it fullscreen again. Doing it all I selected 1080p as a GUI resolution but while playing the 4k movie it is only 1/4 of the screen. So not changes in general.
I have noticed some strange behavior with my new LibreELEC setup when playing 4K content:
I have already tried resetting /storage/.kodi/userdata/guisettings.xml and forcing a new one, but it didn’t help. This is a fresh Raspberry Pi 5 installation, but I restored a backup from my previous Pi 4 to keep all apps and configuration.
Do you have any idea what might be causing this? I would appreciate any clues on where to investigate.
Yes this is also the solution, however I wanted to use pi directly. Now I know that I can't. I will test with the spliter however it would be nice to had it just with pi.
Clear! So I just wanna confirm libreelec and pi5 will not allow 2 HDIM ports simultaneously?I do not know why I have thought it is possible.
I do not know if you have realy halped me, what I want to have no (knowing what I have learned here) I want to switch HDMI. Audio always on HDMI1 but video on demand, either HDMI 1 or HDMI 0 . I am trying to run it com the comands now.
Thanks for the answer. What I have achieved already is:
1. Scenarion 1 - HDMI 1 sends audio, HDMI 0 video
2. Scenarion 2 - while booting I can get either one display loaded as required.
Questions:
1. Is there maybe any way to have a script which will under the remote button switch the HDMI to the one I need after booting? - it may help me a lot.
2. Can I send 1080p with two HDMI in the same time and have both screans available, next if I switch off one screen (TV) and leave only 4k screen I will simply change the resolution. Having audio always with HDMI1? - I can also have a a button for it.
I was pretty sure pi5 alowes for multiscreens.
There is one more thing I am struggling with and trying to achieve, but not releated to hifiberry.
I am trying to setup everything in the following way:
HDMI0 - JVC 4K projector
HDMI1 - Sony AVR - FullHD TV
I am not going to use both dispays in the same time but either one. On projector I would like to have max viddeo resolution without audio. On HDMI 1 where is that sony headphones AVR I need audio and vide which will be passed to old fullhd tv. The goal is to have audion on sony hedphones while using projector. At the moment audio works as expected but when projector is off I have black screen on TV (I can see the libreelac loading logo but thats it). When projector is on then it is also fine and I have what I need.
I want the GUI to automatically switch to TV (1080p) when projector is off and back to projector when it’s on and tv off, wothout reboot. Eventualy I can keep both screens on. EDID for both devices is loaded.

I never suggested it was anyone’s fault. I was simply looking for a solution. I’m fine with keeping the current configuration.
I tested it today and the behaviour matches the Digi+ Pro compatibility notes from HiFiBerry. When I replaced the Digi+ Pro with the Digi standard (previously used on pi4), everything worked correctly. The standard Digi was detected on the Raspberry Pi 5 and the Digi+ Pro was detected on the older Pi 4. I also wasn’t able to get the Digi+ Pro working on Raspbian.
I can return the digi 2 pro, not problem. I am having also pi4 with digi+ standard from 2020. I am not sure if I have understood everything correctly but it should work with pi5?
I will do it but a bit later, and I will let you know. Now I have a quesion, should digi be working on Pi5? Could it be related to the libreelec version (latest)?
I have just seen that topic and I have a quick question, I am trying to setup the following on pi5. Knowing pi5 is able to handle video for both HDMI. I wanted to have one hdmi full video for JVC projector and the other one for video old tv and sony mdr hw700ds for audio, otherwise my jvc will be limited by MDR sony avm. I am not able to setup and detect hifibery digi 2 pro. I need also spdif for klips speakers when I do not wanna use Sony MDR. Is it possible what I wanna do? How could I even get the hifibery working?
DAZN also doesn't work for me ATM (RPi3B+, LE 12.0.2).
Seems like the DAZN add-on from KodiNerds repo needs an update. I guess it's the HTTPS error.
I have installed the version from today, 1.4.10+nexus. 1 on Omega and it doesn't work. Is it working for anyone?
I used it but I could not login, I tried to get the token from windows app but it seems to be not there anymore,so I raised this post. Is there any other option to login? I have read that android app file can be used but I do not know which particularly.
I can't manage tidal on latest libreelec, does it work? I do not have it in kodi repo.
