Great.

Please post a final log for my education.

Both logs are looking good. You are getting additional modes when directly connected to the TV, e.g. 1080p 50/60Hz.

You can try LE12 Generic-legacy with the X11 graphics stack or LE13 nightly with a more recent kernel and mesa.

They can be tested from USB stick using boot mode run but you always have to add the video=eDP-1:d parameter to avoid the notebook cloning mode.

When having garbled video it is always worth testing with a different HDMI cable and/or without the AVR.

Please always post a kodi debug log. You can hide the debug OSD with:

<advancedsettings version="1.0">
<loglevel>1</loglevel> 
</advancedsettings>

Again: please generate a log with the APPEND (even you don't get a picture):

APPEND boot=UUID=2C69-D520 disk=UUID=6f40d61e-1655-4716-85d8-2e5ab914d778  quiet video=eDP-1:d

Note: video=eDP-1:d instead of Video=eDP-1=d

a) I'm not too familiar here, it sounds like you're asking to have this section removed correct?

Just do getedid delete. Afterwards correct the eDP-1 parameter to video=eDP-1:d (unfortunately I have not "seen" this before).

A few thoughts:

a) As long you are testing remove the getedid config from your append line. You will never see a change in resolutions with this static config. But keep disabling eDP-1.

b) IWD is spamming the journal. In worst case disable WIFI before reboot to create a meaningful boot log.

c) Activate debug logging in Kodi (before reboot too).

 APPEND boot=UUID=2C69-D520 disk=UUID=6f40d61e-1655-4716-85d8-2e5ab914d778  quiet initrd=/edid.cpio drm.edid_firmware=edid/edid.bin video=DP-1:D Video=eDP-1=d

Kernel parameters are case sensitive use video=eDP-1=d and check eDP-1 dis-connectivity afterwards, must not:

========== kmsprint ==========
Connector 0 (95) eDP-1 (connected)

When looking at the end of the plugin support thread you see that

a) the author seem to drop support

b) there is an unofficial 5.1.0 that can be downloaded from here.

After installing the 5.1.0 from zip in LE12 there is at least playing something.

Quote from sam-y

LE is booting in the normal way. I though that i can run efibootmgr even LE was not started via efi. That doesn't work?

EFI API is only accessible after booting with it.

Quote from sam-y

Is there an other way to change the default boot in efi once?

Not possible with Legacy Boot.

Likely being German speaking you may not need a translator for this.

When searching cherry trail audio in this forum you find several reports but there seem to be no solution.

If motivated you may extend the search to the whole web.

Looking at your documentation links, tidal addon configuration is having some complexity.

Please check your config again, especially if dash support is enabled

Are you really booting with EFI?

Please check /sys/firmware/efi and /sys/firmware/efi/efivars

The tidal plugin is requesting a HLS stream which is failing with 403 Forbidden. IMO no dash involved.

The second stream is played directly without any inputstream addon.

chewitt With a new image I can play a FTA live dash stream using inputstream.ffmpegdirect without rebuilding the addon. (And the stream can even be played with kodi directly).

May not help, but default route is still active on Generic (X86).

On such a Generic system I would first check with break=prepare_sysroot kernel parameter if the config is correct in init. But this may require some debug shell serial line setup with your board.

Then with route >~/autostart.route in autostart.sh if it is still there before starting kodi.

And always share a debug log.

chewitt You missed:

WARNING: Disabled dash_demuxer because not all dependencies are satisfied: libxml2

With the following patch ffmpeg is building dash demuxer (still with --enable-demuxers). Only build tested.

Can I just dd the installer to a USB stick?

Yes, as root (or with sudo) use e.g: gzip -dc *.img.gz|dd of=/dev/sdX bs=64k
