Looks like we need to wait for an updated nvidia driver - the current one didn't like the update to kernel 6.12.20
so long,
Hias
Hey.
thanks for checking 
I will test it when a new nvidia driver is implemented.

Hey .
Just wanted to let devs know that nightlys after LibreELEC-Generic-legacy.x86_64-13.0-nightly-20250321-faee3d0 results in a "blank screen and no signal" again.
Took a look at the logs that i uploaded https://paste.libreelec.tv/sacred-goshawk.log and https://paste.libreelec.tv/nice-dodo.log and it errors on the nvidia card what i could see.
So when someone has time to check it out i would be grateful
Have a nice weekend.
Regards

Hey HiassofT
I think a new bug was made when the nvidia fix solved the "blank screen"
I noticed it yesterday and tried a couple of things this morning. (tested 20250227, your build and 20250321)
the bug is not there in nightly 20250227 but is there after the nvidia fix.
Bug description: Whatever refresh rate you set in the gui, the gui its self does not use it, it uses 40hz always. when watching media its uses the refresh rate ive set (59.94) Ive tried other refresh rates but the gui do not follow it.
I noticed it because if i bring up my LG tv menu its very sluggish, i have "game optimizer" on and it shows 40hz.
I dont know if its a simple fix i can fix my self or a dev has to fix it. anyone can reproduce it by booting "live" from a nightly after the nvidia pr fix
Edit: Pics added
Best regards

palle_c could you please test with this image:
https://www.horus.com/~hias/tmp/libr…-3917e30.img.gzI've fixed a couple more issues and hope it should be fine now.
so long,

Hey.
Now it gets to the gui, tested "live" first.
Installed it and it works but now samba, ssh and ftp do not work, all those connections times out.
Seems to be a bit buggy on samba, ssh and ftp, rebooted again and now they work
Thanks for fixing the nvidia driver problem
I will continiu with your image until legacy nightlys is back online again after your fix Quick question: now my hdd light keeps blinking all the time, even when idle, can it be some background task? (it stopped now after about 30min) must have been some task heheh

Hey.
Here they are https://paste.libreelec.tv/warm-ewe.log and https://paste.libreelec.tv/cosmic-slug.log
After 1st command it said this is terminal "terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
what(): failed to find DRM cards
Aborted (core dumped)"I still suspect after reading the log that the nvidia driver update is faulty.

palle_c we'll need logs to see what's going on/wrong with your system.
ssh in, then run the following two commands and post the URLs you got:

Hey.
SSH is not enabled with a clean install or "Live" usb boot?
When you get to the GUI on a clean install there you can enable SSH, i do not get a GUI (i did not upgrade this time because of the new "system" partition has changed to 1gb instead of 512mb, i didnt know if the upgrade did the resize auto on upgrade)
Did it work for you on your rtx4070? A "live" usb boot would confirm that

@HiassofT Downloaded LibreELEC-Generic-legacy.x86_64-13.0-nightly-20250314-acd0452.img.gz and still the same problem, did a clean install plus i tested "live" from usb.

@HiassofT Hey, very nice
I will test as soon as possible and report back.Regards

Hello.
I have noticed that nightly after LibreELEC-Generic-legacy.x86_64-13.0-nightly-20250227-23a3c47.img.gz 2025-02-27 12:45 results in blank screen on after the libreelec logo boot on nvidia, no gui shows but i can access samba etc after i did the upgrade (mine anyway, i have a rtx3070 nvidia). i did test with clean installs as well and same results, blank screen and no signal on monitor.
Im speculating here but i could be the nvidia driver update that happened after 2025-02-27 builds
Ive tested builds created on 8/3, 6/3 and 4/3 and they do not work.
This is just a heads up for the dev guys
Right now im sticking with the 27/2 build.
Kind regards

You're the first person to notice since LE11 shipped and nVidia active-install numbers continue to decline over time (we've been telling people to avoid nVidia cards for years now) so the chance that someone else spots the problem is fairly low.
Yea i know and you have told me before hehe
I'm never dropping nvidia, once libreelec does that will be my last version. I have tested intel graphics and picture quality isn't the same (for me anyhow) Now that i got lanczos3 optimized back the quality is even crispier like that is was on 10.04.
I did some other tweaks too, found out that nvidia only runs in performance mode 8=P8 when running hd videos so i added a line in xorg-nvidia.conf and now its using P0 and wattage only increased 4-5w and its utilization is at 35-38% so im happy with smp's build

I didn't PR a Nexus backport, Kodi 21 should be out soon. I'm not even sure if there's going to be Kodi 20.3. You can keep using my LE11 image until LE12 is out.
Oki, i was just afraid that if i updated to latest nightly i would loose the vdpau patch
(haven't tried it yet and i dont know if it would work but i think i could just have copied the RendererVDPAU.cpp over to a new install)Its amazing that no one with nvidia have noticed it before with the missing scalers options, its been gone since le11 beta i guess.
Once again Thanks a lot for helping me out, i will make this thread "Solved"
Team Kodi didn't decide on a 20.3 release yet, but it would be good to send the PR in case it happens (the idea has been made). It's always better to merge patches upstream instead of adding them downstream at the LE repo.
Yea, Im just thinking of the next poor person who installs LE11 and says what i said "wth, whys isn't "enablehighqualityhwscalers" working
Thanks chewitt!
ooops, forgot to mark it "Solved"

LE11 image with the fix included -
LibreELEC-Generic-legacy.x86_64-11.0-devel-20231022034740-07a978a.img.gz
Will Team libreelec do a back port to 11? I can see it was committed only to 12

Yes, I PR'ed the fix to Kodi.
Hey.
Thank you so much smp!! Very appreciated!
Is it possible to let me know when i the fix is in the le11-generric-legacy nightly?
Have a continued nice weekend.
Best regards

Could you please test this image?
LibreELEC-Generic-legacy.x86_64-12.0-devel-20231020225711-b7b5cdf.img.gz
Hey.
Did a clean install and without any adnvancedsetting.xml file and it WORKS now
All options are there including lanczos3 optimized
Did you find a bug?
I would like to get that on 11 nightly too.
Thank you for involving your self in this!
Best regards
-
Do you have something i can test? i have a spare pc with the gtx1080 card in.
I cant find beta1 of libreelec 11 to download to see if the bug is present there or not.
Regards
-
Hi.
Ohh they did? wiki still says that its in use.
I removed the setting from advancedsettings but they still do not show up
Maybe a bug that affects nvidia cards in libreelec builds after 10.0.4?
Regards
-
Hey.
This is just a question.
Did kodi team do smth to the <enablehighqualityhwscalers>true</enablehighqualityhwscalers> when using a nvidia card after 19.5?
It loads correctly but from advancedsettings BUT still i can only choose from bilinear, nearest neighbor or auto. there is no lanczos3 optimized ot the others.
It worked perfectly in 10.04. Maybe smth happened bug related that makes it skip enablehighqualityhwscalers in builds after 10.0.4?
tested 10.04=work on nvidia gtx1080, tested 11.0.4 with rtx3070=dont work, tested gtx1080 11.0.4 and nighly= not working, i cant test rtx3070 on 10.0.4 because its not supported.
Its just a question and if other nvidia users have the same. or if someone at libreelec team can answer
Its in regards to generic 10.0.4 and generic-legacy 11.x. in software decoding it works to choose all others, Lanczos3 Optimized etc
Sorry i missed to add that
best regards
