I have installed KODI on my Pi 2 and on my computer monitor (1920x1080) everything is hunky dorry. Finally got it set up and moved it to my tv (1920x1080) and while Raspian loads fine, KODI has no picture. Just audio. I can shut it down and move it to my monitor, and it works fine again. I have everything powered up before the Pi. What am I doing wrong?

If it help, I do get audio. Just no video.

Do you have any hdmi settings in config.txt?

Yes, but it looks like they were auto generated.

Can anyone help?

I have this exact same problem and have been searching through many forums- still looking for an answer! Did you eventually get it to work?

Can you ssh in to pi and run:

Code:

tvservice -s

before launching kodi and after. I've got a suspicion your TV may support 1080i but not 1080p.

This is what I got back:

state 0x12001a [HDMI DMT (39) RGB full 16:9], 1360x768 @ 60.00Hz, progressive

I wanted the output both before and after kodi is launched.

Sorry they're the same before and after.

I tried launching it again for the millionth time, and miraculously the display came to life for the first time. Then I exited out and tried launching it again. This time, no sound and no video. But it was still working because I used the shortcut to exit out and it brought me back to the terminal (display screen remained black though).

I've been rebooting it and trying it again, but so far it's only been that one time where both the display AND the sound worked. The display screen always remains black after I exit out by blindly using the shortcut. Not sure what to make of it.
