Quote:Since moving to this version (both the MVC 17.6 stable release and the MVC 18.2 RC) under Windows 10, when my TV comes up with a "no signal" message bouncing around, I lose audio and need to restart Kodi. I do not have my TV set to enter any standby modes, but this message appears after several minutes (maybe 5?). This message has always appeared in the past, but I did not lose audio under Windows 7 with either the MVC 18.2 RC or the regular Kodi 18.4 release. I've tried power cycling the TV and receiver, but that doesn't bring it back. I tried messing with Kodi's "keep alive" and "send noise" options, but that didn't change anything.
I am running the latest gpu drivers for my D54250WYKH because I couldn't get the GFX_Win7_8_8.1_64_10.18.10.3540 file to install, saying it wasn't compatible with my system. The receiver is a Pioneer VSX-1020 w/HDMI 1.4a and the TV is a Panasonic TC-P65VT50. All connections are over HDMI.
Any idea what might be causing this and a possible fix? Let me know if anyone needs additional info.
Thanks!
Quoting myself in my original post as I seem to have resolved this.
If anyone else experiences this, check that you don't have the computer set to require a login when resuming from standby/sleep:
Settings->Accounts->Sign-in options->Require sign-in
I wasn't even getting prompted to sign back in when everything turned back on and Kodi was coming up full screen and, otherwise, functional.
