And while we're at it...
I cannot report on any Kodi 17 release that worked for this, I used an Nvidia Shield TV before the switch...
On my system (Beebox N3150, Onkyo TX-SR805 amplifiert, small Samsung LCD TV), I hardly ever get a working TV output and/or sound output.
Examples:
- I start the beebox, everything is turned on. I get no output at all. Initially I thought the system is hanging and rebooted, sometimes it worked. But mostly, I get no screen output at all, no sound either (feels like 80% of the cases)
- In other cases, I get the kodi UI but no sound. No UI sounds, no sound from movies etc. (15%
- Everything works right away (hardly ever)
Solution that always fixes it via ssh:
xrandr -s 1280x720
Kodi notices the change and after a few scones the kodi UI comes up and sound works if it did not before.
Maybe some race-condition, no idea - but it's pretty annoying. I'll get a new 65" SUHD Samsung tomorrow, maybe things change then - but that would just help me, not others
