That screen when you play DV content, all red, has happened to me twice on two clean installs.
I have it fixed, but I still don’t know exactly what causes it and how exactly to fix it.
What I do is to make changes in the DV options settings, activate and deactivate things, lower and raise the Max pq…
And from some change that I can’t identify, it starts to work and it doesn’t happen again…
1)Resolution is 4096x2160p per your TV screenshot while it should be 3840x2160p. Your other screenshots on the system level show that you have set it right. Why is your TV triggering VRR ?
for some reason your screenshot show 21.1.0 as build (I saw the CPM version is also detected. Not sure how you did the install, 21.1.0 and cpm on top ?
In any case I’d try the latest nightly you mentioned as working and applying CPM A11 (not 10) on top.
If everything fails, we saw issue with slower or corrupt SD cards in other forums so you could also try a USB stick and put 21.1.1 on it (nightly or stable) and add CPM A11.
The problem came from the whitelist, not from the GUI resolution (because I was already at 1080p, but 60Hz).
I just tested it right now at 60 or 50Hz, it’s functional.
The same goes for the resolution if I set it to 2160p, working well.
I thought we had to use the whitelist in the classic version of Kodi on Android, we have to use it, right? Or does it not make any difference?
I installed the latest version Omega Nightly NG 21.1.1
And on build it’s said “21.1.0” you know why ?
I made a general point that’s been happening more and more. People should start with simple setups and then increase complexity and see what fails, if anything fails. Whitelist is required when you set a resolution and you want the TV to do the upscaling to that resolution (the gui resolution will be the minimum the device will output to the TV).
As my main goal is to watch videos in my setup, I tend to keep it at 1080p 50hz. But my TV is only 55" and my eyes are not 20 yr old anymore.
Exactly, that’s what I want, for the TV to upscale the files and not the box because in theory, current TVs are efficient at this level (in my case, a LG G3 65").
That’s why I use the whitelist.
And in fact, the whitelist works! It’s just that I shouldn’t select the resolutions 4096x2160p 24 and 23.98Hz like I did initially (which caused a pink screen without DV…).
