Black screen - any way to recover?
#1
OpenElec Kodi on Raspberry Pi.
I had been attempting to get Live TV to show as a choice in the Main Menu and a saw a setting that
said boot into TV. I set that, rebooted and now all I get when Kodi starts is a black screen
with a mouse cursor. I can tell that Kodi is running by the sound cues, but how do I recover from this?
I feel like I have just thrown away several days of work trying to get this fool thing to work as a
PVR. And why is it even possible to configure it to a black screen?

SSH in and rename guisettings.XML from /storage/.kodi/userdata.

Then reboot.

Can you get a debug log (wiki)? It shouldn't get stuck on a black screen, it should either go to the TV section or it should go to the home screen in case the backend couldn't be reached etc.
