Re: Raspberrry Pi 4 Model B 4GB Display Problem

Well, I have spent a couple of hours exploring the delights of PINN, and I think that it's wonderful. I used the Etcher image, and everything went perfectly. I have set up SSH too, so that is another learning curve to enjoy. I have surrendered to the idiosyncrasies of my TV and used the VGA socket. ...

Re: Raspberrry Pi 4 Model B 4GB Display Problem

Sorry to HawaiianPi. That was a bad text edit on my part. I used Etcher to burn a LibreELEC_RPi4 image onto another micro-SD whilst wrestling with this problem. Just neglected to take the "using Etcher" phrase out when simplifying my notes and drafting the More Details. Re: the LEDS, I didn't notice...

Re: Raspberrry Pi 4 Model B 4GB Display Problem

Thanks again for your input. Yes, I found that page in my research. The Pi 4 is certainly booting , and the network connection is up, because I managed to update Raspian. I will try tweaking the resolution next, and then I will try SSH (another learning curve!). I am beginning to suspect that the is...

Re: Raspberrry Pi 4 Model B 4GB Display Problem

Many thanks for that. The benefit of problems like this, and helpful responses, is that they all help with the learning curve. I have tried messing around with the config.txt, but beyong uncommenting hdmi_safe=1 nothing seems to have pointed towards a resolution. Maybe I should try adding a config.t...

Re: Raspberrry Pi 4 Model B 4GB Display Problem

Thanks for the quick response.

I have tried all three HDMI sockets on the TV.

Now TV doesn’t detect signal from Pi 4 Model B 4GB, doesn’t display rainbow screen on first boot with NOOBS on the micro-SD, and doesn’t display the NOOBS installation options scree...
