    Running "create-edid-cpio" is necessary each time you manually change the .config/firmware/edid/ file(s).

    "getedid create" automatically calls that to create the initrd after retrieviing the edid from the TV. In addition to that it modifies config.txt and cmdline.txt to enable the edid override.

    Since you already ran "getedid create" before you only need to run "create-edid-cpio".

    MRudolph the EDID contains the physical HDMI port address so if you switch to a different TV or even to another HDMI port on your TV that'll easily break CEC if you ran "getedid create" before.

    But since your RPi4 seems to detect the old TV fine you could use that to grab the EDID of your old TV and then use it on your RPi5:

    Start LE12 on your RPi4 with HDMI-A-1 connected to the HDMI port of your TV which you'll then use for your RPi5.

    First make sure you have no edid override in place, if in doubt run "getedid delete" and reboot so the RPi will actually read the EDID from the TV.

    Now ssh in and run "getedid create" to grab the edid, you'll then have a edid-HDMI-A-1.bin file in /storage/.config/firmware/edid/ which you need to copy over to your RPi5.

    On the RPi5 make sure you have an edid override (from getedid create) in place, the one from your new TV will do fine, then overwrite the /storage/.config/firmware/edid/edid-HDMI-A-1.bin file with the one from your RPi4 and run "create-edid-cpio" to also update the initrd (which contains the edid firmware override for early stage boot).

    Now the RPi5 will have the correct edid of your old TV and hopefully CEC might work better - you may need to wipe CEC settings in kodi, it could also still have physical address overrides and then things go south.

    But CEC is a bit of a mess, every TV vendor seems to implement it differently, so it could also be that you'll still need to switch TV inputs to get it working.

    Then better go to the RPi forums. If only the second HDMI port shows HDMI/EDID in the bootloader but not the first one then this could also be a hardware fault of the RPi (in that case you should return it to the seller for a replacement) - but double-check with the RPi folks, they might have another clue or advice for you.

    Please post a debug log instead of AI-slop, the latter doesn't help us much.

    My guess is that could be caused by the recent addition of EAC3 transcoding in kodi https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/28001 which got included in LE build 20260329-14b0c24. In that case best open a kodi issue https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/issues

    I'll let your AI figure out if it's EAC3 related or not and if you should open an issue on kodi's repo

    For me, the simplest solution would be if CEC were re-enabled for HDMI 1.

    That's unfortunately not easily possible - libcec hardcoded /dev/cec0 as the device and the first attempt to support /dev/cec1 as well failed miserably.

    The best workaround IIRC is to remove /dev/cec0 and symlink /dev/cec1 to /dev/cec0 (eg in autostart.sh).

    The RPi crash in current nightlies is related to hardware deinterlacing.

    If you disable that in "Settings"->"Player"->"Allow hardware deinterlacing with DRM PRIME" (you need to enable expert mode to see that) playback works fine and interlaced videos will use the bwdif deinterlacer (which gives better quality than the HW deinterlacer).

    Still, we're trying to figure out what exactly causes the crash and fix that to get HW deinterlacing back (RPi2/3 don't have the CPU power to deinterlace HD videos in software).

    I can't comment on the C5 (no idea what that should be) but it's more likely that's standard network traffic in your LAN, coming from other devices (or your router) that reaches your device.

    Lots of network protocols (ARP/ND, MDNS, ...) rely on small broadcast or multicast messages that are transmitted to all devices in a LAN segment - and those cause the network LEDs to blink.

    You'll see the same blinking on PCs, switches etc, too - if they have LEDs.

    There are no signs of a USB device in the log, not even an error during enumeration.

    Please give the LE13 nightly a try (ideally on a separate SD card), if this doesn't work either then it's best to test with the Raspberry Pi OS and move testing over to the RPi forums - it all looks like a compatibility issue between the USB DAC and the RPi's USB controller.

    If the DAC doesn't show up with lsusb it points to a general USB (compatibility) issue. Please run "pastekodi" with the DAC connected so we can see the full dmesg output and system logs.

    It would be worth testing with the latest LE13 nightly, it ships with a newer kernel that might help.

    Hello, seriously, just complaining without any info or logs?

    Hint: if you only get 1024x768 and no HDMI audio this usually means the RPi couldn't detect the TV/receiver and was unable to read the EDID - and is running with some fail-safe defaults.

    So check the cabling (especially avoid micro<->full-size HDMI adapters and keep in mind that cases with built-in HDMI adapters are rather prone to this sort of issue).

    Time will be set correctly once you configured your timezone and are connected to the network/internet so time can be retrieved from NTP servers.

    Please provide a full debug log.

    How to post a log (wiki)

    1. Enable debugging in Settings>System Settings>Logging
    2. Restart Kodi
    3. Replicate the problem
    4. Generate a log URL (do not post/upload logs to the forum)

    use "Settings > LibreELEC > System > Paste system logs" or run "pastekodi" over SSH, then post the URL link
