Not an issue by any means, just a minor thing. Am currently running Kodi on a RP4. I used to be able to edit the "rpi_2708_1001_CEC_Adapter.xml" file and rename the device; this allowed my TV to display the device name on its OSD screen. At some point, this doesn't work, any edits to the file do not survive a reboot. 

I imagine this is the intended behavior; we shouldn't be editing that file in the first place? In any event, is there a workaround to this? I'd like to be able to change the device name on the TV's OSD as I used to be able to.

Suggestions appreciated. 

Thank you!!

You'll need to stop Kodi first, make the edits, and then restart Kodi.
Or shutdown LibreELEC altogether so you can edit the file on a different computer.

python:
systemctl stop kodi

<edit your text file>

systemctl start kodi

That seems to have worked.

Thank you!
