When Kodi (In this case OpenELEC) boots before the TV/display is turned on, Kodi won't know the resolution to be used and will give the following error;
ERROR: WinSystemX11::RefreshWindow - failed to query xrandr
I've looked into the source and modified CXRandR::Query in XRandR.cpp to run "xrandr --auto" after the display comes online. This will force xrandr to automatically check the available resolutions. This fixes the blank screen issue.
I would be glad if I could contribute to the source of Kodi, however I've never contributed anything. I would like to know how and if this would be something that can be fixed in the future versions of Kodi.
