i have been using Kodi 16.1 and 17.3 on m Amazon Firestick. I upgraded the Firestick to 17.4 and also did a fresh install to 17.4, but for some reason, after installing the Kodi, it does not launch but goes back to the screen with the Kodi logo. So Kodi is not opening up.
Now I took the same stick and reinstalled the Kodi 17.4 and run on Panasonic TX-P42C10B, it works fine and after the install, Kodi runs and opens up.
After seeing the Kodi open, I shut the firestick down and took the same Firestick to the LG TV and got the same result.
I have another firestick running Kodi 17.3 and it works fine on both h TV's.
This is a crazy situation because the software and addons are on the Firestick and work fine on the Panasonic TV and also a Sharp LG-32CFE6131K TV.
I am wondering if it is related to the skins.
I have tried a couple of additional tests and below are the following results:
The Firestick does not launch on any of the 4 HDMI connections on the LG TV.
I have a SCART to HDMI converter and when I used that on the LG TV, it works fine.
But why is the Kodi 17.4 not working with the original HDMI connections on this TV.
I also tried it with my Sony KVR 17HR3 TV with the SCART to HDMI Converter and it works.
Why is the Kodi 17.4 having problems with some HDMI ports?
