You need to execute commands via ssh client, for example putty.
After first command it just stops kodi and will be available via ssh and samba
How to connect you can find in pdf document from this post

You can find a file here(where IP is IP of your box): \IP\Userdata\guisettings.xml

OK thanks, I know putty.
I am going to try that.
What Gui setting for GT King ?
Disable GUI Scaling : Off or On ?
Must I set this option first to go to putty or it doesn’t matter ?
In my system video resolution, can I stay to 1080 or must I set to 4K ?

What Gui setting for GT King ?

The settings are the same for all boxes

Disable GUI Scaling : Off or On ?

set it off (as it was by default). Or you can read an description of this function to decide what you need

Must I set this option first to go to putty or it doesn’t matter ?

I don’t understand that you mean, but change options in GUI before you execute 1st command(to stop kodi)

In my system video resolution, can I stay to 1080 or must I set to 4K ?

As you wish

That worked for me too. Thanks so much.

ssh to the Odroid, and remove “resolution” lines in the guitsettings.xml file did the trick for me as well.

ssh root@<Odroid IP Address>
systemctl stop kodi
vi ~/.kodi/userdata/guisettings.xml
systemctl start kodi
exit

*Tip use /resolution to find where it is being called once you VI in to the file.

I had some weird playback issues after this, I believe it wasn’t using variable refresh rate. I tried to start Kodi, but later ended up rebooting the entire box.

Thanks!

GT-King, last nightly. I have resetted all resolution settings.
Nothing in whitelist, no screen calibrated.
My GUI settings 1920*1080p 60 Hz
Coreelec settings all unticked.
When I play HD content all good. When I play 4K content all good, but when I play more one 4K content after 4K content, the movie just seen on 1/4 screen.
Than I play SD, or HD content, than next playing 4K content all good again.
Seems like after 4K content kodi not reset the resolutions properly.
Playing all content to proper resolution, just when I set to GUI at 4K.

Have you see any issues, in my settings?

50

No, neither your nor Tim…
Could you try different sd/usb card to make clean install and check if it some kodi settings issue or not. We couldn’t repeat the sequence.

On current system you could try to select “Disable GUI scaling” reboot and check if it solves this issue or not… but it could cause some osd glitching on some 4k video

51

Disable gui scalling cannot helped, I’v tried. Only one thing help, when I set gui resolution to 4K, but I not want that. I will try another usb fresh install CE, and well see what happen. Thanks anyway.

My workaround:
I set GUI resolution to 3840X2160
