The fix is already in our development branches.

Here's a recent LE10 build https://www.horus.com/~hias/tmp/libr…210-ae16a10.tar - would be great if you could give it a try and report back.

Just noticed in the log that the video size is 2560x1920 - RPis only support up to HD (1920x1080) H264 decoding.

Please test with this build https://www.horus.com/~hias/tmp/libr…210-ae16a10.tar , it has the latest video decoder fixes that were added after LE 10.0.0

If it doesn't work please use "pastekodi" on the command line or the log upload function in LE settings to create logs and post the URL - we also need the other info like journal that's included in these logs.

dmesg shows tvheadend is using a large amount of RAM which probably is the cause for the OOM killer kicking in and killing it.

I'd suggest you look into that first, eg disable timeshift-to-RAM if you are using that.

Please test with this build and report back if it fixes the ASS subtitles not showing issue:

LibreELEC-RPi4.arm-10.0-devel-20211001104210-ae16a10.tar

I finally managed to find and fix the root cause, with this build ASS subs area also shown fine for 4k movies here.

All HDMI and HW decoder fixes we have so far are in nightly builds.

Note though that the nightlies are based on LE 11 and Kodi 20 - better use the LE10 test build I linked above unless you are in a highly experimental mood and run them from a separate SD card (going back to LE10 most likely won't work without major trouble).

Modetest shows the second HDMI is unconnected:

40  0   disconnected    HDMI-A-2        0x0     0   39

If your soundbar only has an HDMI-ARC port then most likely you must connect it to an ARC capable port on your TV, connecting it to an HDMI port of the RPi probably won't work - check the documentation of your soundbar.

GUI resolution limit is not relevant, you'll hit the bug if the display resolution is set to 3840x2160 (or larger) at 50Hz or more.

Please test with this build, this is current LE10 branch (what will become 10.0.1 in the future) plus additional H264 fixes:

LibreELEC-RPi4.arm-10.0-devel-20210927231029-e218de0.tar (just copy it to the update share and reboot)

Quote from sbstp

I have a brand new Raspberry pi 4 on which I installed LibreELEC 10.0.0. When I close my TV and re-open it, the TV says no input is detected. If I login via ssh to the pi and do systemctl restart kod, it fixes the issue.

This is a known issue if you run at 4kp50/60 and it's even mentioned in the release notes LibreELEC (Matrix) 10.0.0 - LibreELEC

Quote

4K50/60 output is supported by the driver, but has some known issues (eg “no signal” when TV is put into standby and back on)

This should be fixed in 10.0.1

This is working now in LE10.

Nothing has changed in that area during the nightly builds you mentioned.

Are you using (AC3/DTS/...) passthrough? Note that volume control won't work when passing through AC3/DTS/... - if you play a movie with eg 2ch PCM or an audio file it will work though.

LE10 switched from the proprietary firmware video driver to standard linux DRM/KMS video driver - so using vchiq etc won't work anymore, you have to switch your application to DRM/KMS as well.

LE9.2 and before changed the framebuffer to 1x1px at kodi start to save a bit of memory (which helped RPi1 with only 256/512MB RAM) - this is no longer happening on LE10 as well.

so long,

Hias

Also please test with this build LibreELEC-RPi4.arm-10.0-devel-20210901104638-c91d4d4.tar (just copy it to the update share and reboot), it contains several HDMI and video decoder fixes that aren't in LE 10.0.0

so long,

Hias

Yes, this no longer has any effect in LE10.

hdmi_ignore_cec_init is pretty much the only option that's still relevant to LE10, everything else video related is now handled by the linux video driver.

so long,

Hias

Thanks for the report! I haven't seen that issue myself yet and pinged the RPi devs.

Can you test if the video plays fine if you set the display resolution to 1920x1080? I suspect it could be related to the 2560x1440 resolution of your monitor.

Hias

No need to use lirc, just remap the buttons with kodi's keyboard.xml. See eg here RE: apple ir remote (atvclient) not working after upgrade from 9.0.2. to 9.1.002

Hias

LE includes the latest default and stable firmwares available when building the image. Settings addon checks against the default release train (same as RPiOS), if you want to track stable instead you can do that manually on the command line.

Hias

Thanks a lot for reporting back, it's really nice to hear the build is working fine for you!

I hope we'll be able to provide some (semi-)regular LE10 RPi2 builds at some point in time. We already discussed that internally, problem ATM is that there are issues with our CI buildsystem and it can't do it automatically for us.

I'll keep my build online for now so other people can download and test it as well.

so long,

Hias
