[Libreelec 8] Edid not loaded
#1
As per oe 7/8 i use this guide to force a custom edid (denon avr)

But tried many times and i can't get to load custom edid with libreelec...no problem when i tried many times ago with oe

I checked and edid file is created correctly and other files are placed correctly

Lurking in log i see this error today for first time

Code:
#0. Suggest a bigger bdl_pos_adj.

i am have used this guide too and edid loading is no problem since OE 6 until the latest LE master (Kodi V17). due the error log your edid seems to be broken or otherwise: on your boot cmd there is no hint of a forced edid file which should be loaded. so it seems that your actual config is used and send an invalid edid to your system. actually this is missing as i can see:

Quote:Add to the end of the APPEND line:

initrd=/edid.cpio drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=HDMI-A-1:edid/edid.bin

Thank you!

Now i made a clean install so i will try again asap, maybe can i post you all screenshot cause probably i make error using putty ssh client and giving command to append it

in the shell when i have APPEND boot=LABEL=System disk=LABEL=Storage ssh quiet initrd=/edid.cpio drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=HDMI-A-1:edid/edid.bin video=HDMI-A-1Big Grin

i use ctrl + o and shell say 1 line wrote

(if i rembember correctly using sftp client i verified that all files were correctly wrote)

thank you again

Yes you are great!!! tried again and works

Probably my fault was at append line this difference:

From guide:

Code:
APPEND boot=LABEL=System disk=LABEL=Storage ssh quiet initrd=/edid.cpio drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=HDMI-A-1:edid/edid.bin video=HDMI-A-1:D

mine was similir without ssh voice between storage and quiet so the result was

Code:
APPEND boot=LABEL=System disk=LABEL=Storage  quiet initrd=/edid.cpio drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=HDMI-A-1:edid/edid.bin video=HDMI-A-1:D

see screenshot here http://s32.postimg.org/65e531cd1/ssh.jpg

i have only one more question, what about if i bring the player to another house without avr ? will librelec load correctly or must i delete/rename first edid firmware file ?

thank you again

No matter what is attached it will always force your overwrite.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

Okay thank you as always Smile

(mine confusion was thinking about that somewhere i read that forced edid was a mix between avr and tv config, so i thought that attaching only a tv of a different brand could give problem)

Forcing edid means: Fake whatever you want to your GPU. So - yes in deed - if you plug in a TV that can only do 720p and force a 1080p mode that will cause an issue. That's why we don't ship a generic EDID by default, Sherlock :-)
