On some TVs there's a difference in functionality between different HDMI inputs. Others "don't mind" on which HDMI input PRi is connected...

Is that Logitech harmony 525?
I have this remote, and it works pefect in combination with my (Panasonic) Tv and RPi3, so I don't think there is an issue with this remote on latest (8.0.1) LibreElec. It works perfect also on latest Milhouse nightly builds... -

These are values similar to mine, and mine never overheats. What was Pi doing when it overheated?
-
No.
What is your processor temperature when Pi is idle?
At what percentage run your processor cores when Pi is idle?
What are your overclock settings, if any? -
Make your own proper format Kodi "Splash.png" and place it in /storage/.kodi/media/
-
Confusing only because Windows is "stupid enough" to see only "Fat16/32" and "NTFS" formated partitions, and not "bright enough" to see multiple partitions on an SD card
Not to mention that it cannot see Linux type "ext4" formated SD card (without additional programs) and that is the format used for second partition on your SD card which is created during LE installation. -
Don't bother, if it works great as you say, then everything is OK and your card has it's full 8GB capacity. The "problem" you experience is that in Windows you can see only the first partition on the SD card, which is formated in Fat32 and is 512MB in size. The rest resides on a second partition (created during installation) which you cannot see normally on a Windows machine.
Check the size of your card in LE/Kodi, and you'll see the first and second partition and their size...

You can use either hd-idle plug in, or make use of internal command "hdparm". In both cases you need to create an "autostart.sh" script file which runs when LE boots.
Here is the example how to do it with "hdparm" command for HDD name "sda1":Get your external HDD name:
Create/edit autostart script
Set acoustic and power management functions:
autostart.sh script file should look like this:
where parameters are:
-B 127 is the highest power management parameter which allows spin-down
-M 254 is the fastest head-movement, if you want a more silent HDD, set this lower
-S is the number that controls the time when to spin downExamples:
1. hdparm -S 60 /dev/sda1 => spindown in 5min
2. hdparm -S 120 /dev/sda1 => spindown in 10min(I use 2. example and am not using -B and -M parameter)
My autostart.sh:
It waits 60sec before it executes (sleep 60) to give enough time for drive to mount.
If it does not work, check that the autostart.sh script resides in /storage/.config/ folder.
BTW, you can create/copy (my) autostart.sh on a windows PC using Notepad++ editor, save it as autostart.sh and copy it with LE/Kodi File Manager to SD card /storage/.config/
Note: if you'll use Notepad++ when saving file choose "Save as" and then choose "Unix script lile .sh" to get proper file format.

Even on RPi3 with the built in wifi adapter, I always get that error message although it always connects a second later after the message is shown.

I would suggest that you drop Confluence Skin and get used to new default Estuary Skin. See how CEC behaves then...
-
Yes, in LE 8.0 there is a CEC bug that affects Rpi & Panasonic TVs. Nothing to do except to wait for new fixed version.
Since in latest Milhouse test build (Kodi 18) CEC is fixed, it will probably be soon fixed in new LE with release (with Kodi 17). -
Yes, it can be changed in Input-CEC settings. Scroll down to bottom and set all 3 sliders to middle position and try. If CEC stops working after you select OK to save settings, just reboot with a mouse/keyboard, if you have any attached...
-
LE 8.0 also has CEC issues on RPi3 and Panasonic TV.
If you don't have a mouse/keybord connected do not make & save any CEC option changes. If you do, CEC stops working untill system reboot.
-
That is much over my idle temperature of 40-42°C (Pi3 with heatsinks).
-
No effect, CEC does not work on this version as it should, or as it did work on v7.95.2. (RPi3 & Panasonic TV)

Yes, Pi will not try to connect to any other channel, only to the fixed (and strongest) channel on your AP. If possible choose a channel 3, or 6, or 9, if they are free of interference from neighbors.
