So I managed to fix this by using an alternative cable which arrived today.

This is particularly annoying as the cable worked absolutely fine on a different screen, it's also the official Raspberry Pi micro HDMI cable but a cheapo sanity-test cable from Amazon has done the trick.

I don't really like bumping threads, but...help?

I'm having the same issue as yourself: viewtopic.php?f=28&t=276792&e=1&view=unread#unread

I wish I could offer more insight as to what's going on.

Kushan

Yup, I definitely selected the correct input. The behaviour is a bit odd, the TV doesn't see the input as active but the TV will automatically switch on if it's on standby when the pi is powered on. AS for updates...what's left to update? This was a freshly imaged Pi OS (32 bit) using Pi imager. I a...

There's a few threads on this with various suggestions and I've been down the rabbit hole trying to work around it. It works fine plugged into a 1080p monitor, so it's the 4k issue some people are having. I'm not getting any display at all, even at lower resolutions or with hdmi_safe. The TV otherwi...

I suspect I know the answer to this from reading posts and looking at the datasheet, but are there any spare PCI-Express lanes that can be used by addon cards? For example, if someone wanted to add nVME storage to it, is it theoretically possible without going via USB? On a related vein, what is the...

I...I don't even know why you're still replying... Ditto. I also don't know why anyone started taking this thread in a direction that is not relevant. This thread is about getting hardware-assisted DTS coding for the Pi. If you're not interested in that, and you're happy to find alternative solutio...

Did you read the whole of his post? Did you? Especially the bit about spending a lot of money on something he doesn't need and how that was a terrible way of thinking? He was considering a $1000 TV that he doesn't need, just so he can use DTS with his Pi. There's no guarantee the Pi will EVER get t...

This is a terrible way of thinking... but I'm actually considering getting an HDTV worth around €1000 which is DTS capable to have my €35 'RaspBMC' play everything with audio passthrough :mrgreen: But since I do not have this TV yet and my old TV is still working fine, I have to use the analog audi...

Essentially though, I think this topic might as well be renamed "Hardware-assisted DTS downmixing" because unlike yourself, I expect a lot of people might be happy with 2.0 DTS if the ARM CPU was capable of downmixing without choking too much, because that would at least allow anybody to play DTS a...

I've tried the updated build from srau and it's working quite well. Out of curiosity, I looked around but I couldn't find it - is there any way to factory reset the device? I wouldn't mind being able to wipe all my settings between builds without having to format the card (I can't access the ext par...

People that want to use a remote - have any of you tried using the XBMC remote apps for Android/iOS? I know it's not quite the same as a physical remote but when you've got direct access to your libraries on the app, does it matter? =P

<t>I don't suppose anyone feels like making an image of a later (updatable via samba) version? I tried updating mine by overwriting the SYSTEM file on the SD card and it boots, but before it gets to the splash screen I just get a black screen. Strangely enough I can access it via samba an...

<t>I would happily donate a beer or two!

Kushan

<t>Yeah, I wasn't thinking anything massively fancy, just a menu when you boot the pi that maybe has a "default" selection after 30s - you know, just your standard boot menu. I just don't know how to go about doing that, particularly as SD cards tend to be loaded up in advance whereas on ...

Kushan

Yeah, I figured we'd have to use GRUB or something to do it properly.

<t>Hi everyone, I'm not brilliantly familliar with Linux, so apologies if this is a really obvious yet stupid question but I was wondering if its possible to load multiple OS/Distributions onto one SD card? I have a Pi and I've been playing around with debian and openelec but I...

<t>I'm a bit confused on the NFS front myself. Windows doesn't easily support it but I got FreeNFS running ok. The problem was I couldn't get my Pi to see it, when I selected NFS share it would freeze for a minute or two and then nothing. Conversely, when I select SMB it freezes for a sec...

Kushan

<t>I don't think CPU/GPU power is the issue, as far as I know the decoding is done in hardware and the Pi is more than capable of it (early testers said they could play 1080p without an issue). I dare say it's likely something relating to I/O throughput or something else, in any case I'm sure it can...
