OSMC spent quite a bit of time fixing issues with 3D support in the Amlogic 3.14 vendor kernel but it was never quite as polished as the legacy Raspberry Pi codebase. I've no idea what state it's in with anyone else's patches and code, but I'd suggest you keep an RPi3 around for that duty when you need it.

Enable Advanced or Expert mode.

Forcing the SSH daemon to start requires "ssh" in boot params not "SSH" .. the other one that's useful is "textmode" which will boot direct to a text console on-screen instead of Kodi allowing you to poke around in networking, dmesg, etc.

I've moved the Python 3.8 images to https://chewitt.libreelec.tv/testing/python-3.8/ .. I don't plan on maintaining them separately but they can hang around for a while. From today the images in https://chewitt.libreelec.tv/testing/ are bug-compatible with LE master again.

I've been ripping CDs, SACDs and audio DVDs for ~20 years and have accumulated a size of collection that means a) backups are impractical so I need to consider redundancy instead, and b) the "cost" in time/effort to re-rip everything in the event of a disaster would be greater than the extra $$ for the (currently, 6x 8TB) box. Different people assign different values to their personal time and their collections.

RPi2 and RPi3 use the same "RPi2" image since 2013 ish .. nothing new there.

LibreELEC:~ # cd storage
-sh: cd: can't cd to storage: No such file or directory
-----------------------------------------------
The shell starts in /storage and there is no "storage" folder there (would be /storage/storage) so the error message being shown is correct and the sources file is still in /storage/.kodi/userdata/sources.xml .. so "cd .kodi/userdata/" or just open nano with the full path.

Get a Synology 4-bay NAS with the largest drives that you can afford in SHR so you have more capacity and proper one-disk redundancy. The budget Syno models with GB Ethernet are fast enough for SMB access (no need for USB, although it can be done) to any Pi/LE device and can host an SQL DB. The plus models are faster and support Docker and such better, which often comes in useful. Shift content to the NAS and then clean-up/format the USB drives and eBay them to recoup some funds. You won't regret moving to a NAS setup. I've looked at other NAS brands over time but the software never feels as polished as Synology. There's always the self-build route, but I trust them to do a better job at hardware and build that I do myself. I find their OS to be well thought out, well maintained, zero effort, and overall great value.

bertiera What WiFi chip is in the box?

Your micro log snippet shows nothing of use, but LE9.2 and earlier have custom optimisations for software HEVC playback on RPi hardware and LE10/LE11 do not have this, and as there is a general mission to only run upstream code (and avoid 100k line custom patches) there are no plans to add it back (the clever but hacky patches are not upstreamable). So RPi2/3 will still software decode HEVC content, but you prob. can't achieve HD resolutions.
-
Nightlies are experimental development images so users should expect bugs and delays in fixing things. Our normal preference is to report the fix and then bump to include the resolution patch or another bump rather than revert back. If it becomes clear the issue won't be resolved quickly, then we'll revert the version.

Use an LE11 nightly. Newer kernel in the development codebase should have drivers/support.
-
Experiment with a current LE11 nightly from https://test.libreelec.tv/ .. these images have a much newer kernel with more GPU support. Are things now working?
-
https://wiki.libreelec.tv/configuration/edid#generic-x86_64 <= read up .. RPi4 under GBM/V4L2 is basically the same as any other Linux DRM device now, e.g. Intel.
-
You may/probably need to trigger recovery mode via the button on the underside of the box (toothpick method) as the boot scripts changed.
-
noggin the RPi4 SoC is basically an RPi3B+ with faster clock speed and an extra IP block for 4K HEVC, so 3D works on RPi4 under the older LE9.2 codebase as nothing really changed, but support needs to be reworked for the newer GBM/V4L2 pipeline.
-
RPi4 was designed to run way hotter than most people are mentally prepared to run their devices. Remember when it first launched and the average temps were over 65ºC?
