I have build the stick yesterday with the recommended nightly, 20240718-Generic to be exact. I just booted from stick, upgraded to todays 20240723 and flashed it over to the eMMC overwriting everything. With only a few settings and no custom skin - success!
DV seem to work now, the movies that gave no signal worked flawlessly now!
I don’t know what the culprit was. Either it is something from the settings here:
Maybe something from Settings->Services->Caching Buffer, Read factor, Memory size? Or eMMC Speed Mode – HS200, HS400?
Or it was the fault of the Arctic Horizon 2 skin I installed yesterday (I noticed the player GUI is a little bit different too)
Or it was the CEC HDMI blocker adapter I used yesterday. Now I configured the CEC plugin in CoreElec.
