Using the RPi5 with a 3A PS is fine if you don't connect any bus-powered HDDs/SSDs. You can get away using a powered USB hub though.
Other than that I strongly recommend buying the official RPi5 PS (I got white ones about 2 weeks ago) - pretty much all other USB PD powersupplies can't deliver 5A at 5V.

You forgot "of=" before the output device -"dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=1M"

Thanks for the report, I can reproduce it here, since the v4l-utils update the keymaps fail to load. We'll look into it.

The wifi firmware that's currently used on RPi doesn't support WPA3. See also these issue reports on the RPi repos
https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/4718
https://github.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree/issues/41
We're all waiting for RPi folks to update their firmware files.

You don't need the amixer command, this only applies to the analog-out Hifiberry cards. The Digi/SPDIF cards don't have any hardware volume mixer controls.
Simply activate passthrough in Kodi and you are fine.

Set the channels back to 2.0 and enable passthrough in Kodi's audio settings

Yes, iscsi support has been dropped quite a while ago https://github.com/LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv/pull/6356

gpiozero from the 11.80.3.1 RPi Tools addon is working fine here, just checked currtent LE12 master build on my RPi3B+
# PYTHONPATH=.kodi/addons/virtual.rpi-tools/lib/ python3
Python 3.11.6 (main, Oct 26 2023, 13:22:34) [GCC 13.2.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import gpiozero
>>> b = gpiozero.Button(4)
>>> b.is_pressed
FalseNote that 11.80.3.1 updated gpiozero to version 2.0 and dropped the RPi.GPIO backend https://github.com/LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv/pull/8230
So you likely need to have a closer look at your scripts and exact failure messages

Educated guess: likely it's the standard issues with Hifiberry cards, having an old/incompatible overlay in it's eeprom.
Configuring Linux 4.x or higher | HiFiBerry
Disable the eeprom and manually load the overlay in config.txt eg:
force_eeprom_read=0

Yes, you'll be able to update from LE12 nightly to LE12 official release.
No ETA for LE 12.0.0 yet, but I'd guess 24Q1 could be possible (certainly not this year).

Sleep (suspend/resume) isn't supported. From what I've read the hardware should be capable to support that so it might get added in the future (but OFC not promises if/when that might happen).

RPi5 has one, you just need to buy the (rechargeable) battery for a few bucks.

I installed LibreELEC-RPi5.arm-11.0-nightly-20231104-300a514 on my new PI 5 with active cooling the fan is connected on the official fan connector.
I note that it seems to turn on at already 49°C and turns off at 46°C
It seems the documentation is wrong, the kernel / device tree trip points match your observations - first trip point is at 50°C with a hysteresis of 5°C (i.e. turn on at 50°C and off at 45°C)
From a quick glance the trip points can't be configured yet, but this should be doable with some future dtparams or a dtoverlay.
Best ask on the RPi forums about that https://forums.raspberrypi.com/ or open an issue on the RPi kernel github issue page https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues

ffmpeg 6.1 added support for the vulkan video decode api which is a different thing than vulkan graphics/3D support (RPis only come with the latter) - so AV1 decoding will still need to be handled by dav1d.

I'm currently looking into a different approach: let users choose to mount NTFS partitions read-only https://github.com/LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv/pull/8308 - this would hopefully solve the issue of easy corruption in case of unclean shutdowns.

Don't get too excited about ntfsfix, I did a quick test on a corrupted NTFS filesystem, removing the dirty bit, and as expected it didn't help with the errors and the ntfsdriver set the dirty bit again after mounting it because the filesystem had issues.

On LE11 this is expected, RPi3 doesn't have enough grunt to decode it. LE 9.2.x and earlier contained optimized HEVC decoder code which was dropped in LE10 as it doesn't work with the new graphics stack (and, no, it won't come back).
TLDR: use LE 9.2.8 on RPi3 if you want to playback HEVC files (or just use H264 files, they work with all LE versions).
