Try removing the 4096 modes from the whitelist, leaving only the 3840 "4K" modes. Any better?

The rainbow screen normally indicates missing, obsolete or wrong boot files. RPi4 has gone through several hardware iterations since launch and the LE 9.2.8 image? is now quite old and has boot firmware that does not support the latest iterations of RPi4 hardware. The LE 10.0.3 image is superior in just about all aspects on RPi4 hardware so please try that.

You can install the Multimedia Tools add-on from the LE repo using the GUI. There is no simple way to install add-ons from the command line and there is no package management in the OS.

I'm wondering if the SD card is being reset correctly in reboot. Have you tried installing the image to emmc storage? (which removes SD card from the process). I forget when I last booted this board, but it was probably booted from emmc.

No kodi debug log = No problem for us to investigate. If it's a pirate IPTV source you can skip the process because we won't support it.

You can partially restore some the content of the backup (add-on settings, databases and thumbnails, etc.). Just avoid add-on binaries as those will be for 'arm' CPU architecture and will not run on x86_64 hardware.

There is no support for piracy infested forks in this forum and you aren't using LE on any devices. So i'll point out that a lighthttpd package is already in the buildsystem as a Kodi dependency, but beyond that you're on your own.

Run "journalctl | paste" and share the URL from a cold/clean boot and after a minute or so.

The USB audio card route would be best, as this provides an independent soundcard to route audio to. I'm not sure if the current behaviour is hardwired in hardware (in the SoC) or in the kernel, but I suspect the former if both legacy and modern kernel images behave the same, as those kernel codebases have almost zero driver code in common.

The samba server is configured to require credentials. The default user = libreelec, and pass = libreelec .. unless you change them in the LE settingsd add-on. So enter the details and store the credential in the local keychain and the GUI shouldn't prompt you again. Or change the user to match whatever credential you have previously stored for the same host (looks like user = kodi, pass = ???).

Anyone running that piracy infested garbage is on their own. Good luck.

I trashed the log post, because a) the URL was invalid, b) when you fix it, it links to a garbage post on crypto crap

I've assumed you're booting from a USB key which can be removed and inserted somewhere to edit the config. The alternative would be to boot from a Live USB key (ours or any other distro) .. something to get a text console to mount/edit the config.

I last booted our codebase on x86_64 hardware more than a decade ago so I've no idea about GMA3600 support. The system log should provide some clues about what is/isn't happening though.

Update to the 9.2.8 final release for RPi devices. If no change, grab a spare SD card and test with current LE11 nightlies. If no change, file a bug report in the Kodi forums so upstream devs responsible for the TVH add-on and/or Kodi can investigate.

Reinstall the legacy version of LE that worked before, then stop Kodi, manually copy the latest update file to /storage/.update/ and then erase the /storage/.kodi folder and reboot. On restart you should end up with a (legacy) bootloader that works and clean Kodi setup.

Nightlies are in an alpha state, but crowdsourced bug reporting normally catches anythibng major quickly so they're not extreme. The netflix issue should be resolved (add-on author was publishing fixes).

Add "ssh" to kernel boot params to force the daemon to start.

Correct.
