    Hi guys

    Did you find out anything in my logs?

    It is not very important to me anymore because I gave up on RPi4. I set it to 1080p/60 and put in in the kitchen to watch morning TV and eventually to screen some movies before watch them on big screen. Unfortunately it doesn't play my own videos, but it is only 1/5 of cost of NUC it replaced, so I am not returning it. It will stay in the kitchen.

    I did following:

    Went to System>Settings>System>Logging and enabled debug logging.

    Went to System>Settings>System>Display and set output to 1080p/60

    Started HD movie and played for while, than changed output to 2160p/24 and continued the same movie. It was fine.

    Than started UHD movie "3:10 to Yuma" and there were problems. Then I switched to another UHD movie "Murder in orient express", problems continued and system crashed.

    I went to LibreELEC>System and uploaded both logs; kodi.log and kodi_crash.log: http://ix.io/2cPz and http://ix.io/2cPA

    I hope that this time I did it right.

    Thanks for info.

    I gathered debug file yesterday and today but I don't know how to get them from RPi4.

    No I didn't enable 4K60. I didn't change anything in config. Just installed software, installed Confluence skin - to match other player for comparo, set resolution to 2160/24 and then to 1080p/60 and 1080p/24 when tried to play movies.

    Today, following your advice, I set white list for 1080p/4k 23.976/24/59.97/60 and set "adjust refresh" to start/stop.

    After setting resolution to 1080p/60 I could play 1080p movie for several minutes without freezing. The same after setting refresh rate to 23.98 and 24 fps.

    Then I changed resolution to 2160p/24 and still could play this movie with only one freeze, but later played well for several minutes without any problem.

    UHD movies are different story. I tried "3:10 to Yuma" and "Murder in orient express" and both movies were played with hiccups and audio was ahead ~2 seconds. Movie freeze from time to time.

    I can send you debug log if you tell me how to retrieve it.

    I've read good reviews on Raspberry Pi4 so I decided to replace my NUC 8i3 by Pi4.

    I purchased Raspberry Pi 4 Model B (4GB), installed LibreELEC-RPi4.arm-9.2.0.img and tested on 4k TV. It didn't play smoothly, freezing every several seconds. I blamed software so I installed LibreELEC-RPi4.arm-9.2.0.img on new SD card but have the same results. I tried 2160p/24fps, 1080p/60fps, 1080p/24fps. Movies are freezing. I don't use WiFi, just Ethernet cable. Frustrated I contacted seller but they claim that all Pi4 are tested and that they have no returns.

    I purchased Raspberry Pi 3 B+, installed LibreELEC-RPi2.arm-9.2.0.img and it works perfectly from the start. Plays movies 1080p/60fps on the same TV connected to the same Ethernet cable.

    So NUC works perfectly up to 2160p/60, Pi3 works perfectly up to 1080p/60, but Pi4 doesn't. Should I try something else or just return Pi4 and ask for replacement.

    I believe this projector's HDMI port is limited to a maximum pixel clock frequency of 300mhz. This means it will only support 4K 50/60hz 4:2:0 8-bit.

    This is correct.

    4K 4:2:0 does not work on standard X11 builds of LibreELEC. AFAIK it's a limitation of Intel driver and/or X11.

    It makes sens. Works on Vizio but not PJ.

    So projector accepting 4K/60 4:4:4 should work like my VisioTV, it means 2160p/60fps and 4:4:4 or 4:2:2, right?

    I have NUC8i3 with LibreELEC 9.2.0. It plays UHD video 60fps on my Visio TV without a problem. When I moved it to my HT it goes only 30fps and I can't change it to 60fps.

    My projector (Pro Cinema 6040 UB) plays UHD/60, so why LibreELEC limits video to 30fps? How can I enforce LibreELEC to 2160p/60fps?

    LibreELEC doesn't offer HDR yet so it is not a problem.

    Any idea what should I do?

    I had Windows system with Kodi controlled by RS232 signals through USB Serial adapter. I replaced old system by LibreELEC and controller doesn’t work anymore.

    I assume that I need driver for USB Serial adapter. I have driver for Linux. How can I install this driver on LibreELEC?

    Thanks upfront for sugestions.

    Hi guys

    When I start player from “OFF” or from “Sleep” I have to wait ~ 10 minutes before player connects to media server and let me play movie or music. I get "connection timed out" info for 10 minutes and option “update library on startup” doesn’t work.

    I used OpenELEXC before and switched to LibreELEC recently, looking for solution to problem I have with OpenELEC, but there is no difference in this regard.
    KODI on WIN7 or on WIN WHS 2011 connects immediately. Why OpenELEC and LibreELEC need at least 10 minutes?

    Can anyone point me in right direction or know how to fix this problem?
