Thank you.

You should see it display fine with 0504 and not with 0505 onwards.
I dont think its anything ive done, as everythings stock apart from iplayer and youtube and i dont use advanced settings.

OK I see the same different behaviour with #0504/#0505.

With #0505 (and /storage/.config/splash.disable ie no splash video), there is a period of blank black screen before the Kodi splash image appears (but only for a fraction of a second) and then immediately the Kodi GUI loads. With #0504, the Kodi splash appears seamlessly after the LE splash, and then remains visible for 2-3 seconds before the Kodi GUI loads. It's difficult to say if the the Kodi splash image is appearing if you have the splash video enabled, it probably is but only for a very brief period.

The only difference when showing the splash video is that the frame buffer (which is showing the LE splash image) is killed with "/sbin/fbset -g 1 1 1 1 32" *before* kodi.bin is started, while without the splash video the frame buffer is not killed until kodi is started (it's killed from within xbmc/Application.cpp).

So now, in #0505+, it appears as though the Kodi splash image may only be being rendered for one or two frames immediately before the main GUI is rendered.

@popcornmix could the "remove gui" commits be preventing the Kodi splash from being rendered correctly? There is no Kodi splash (or text) displayed during a database migration with #0505 (there is, with #0504), so it looks like the rendering of the splash and (also any text) is now a little broken since #0505.
