hdmi stops pi from booting

[koos147]

Hello,

I have a raspberry pi behind my television for mediacenter.
when the tv is on or standby the pi isn't booting.

When i unplug the hdmi the pi is booting but it need another reboot before it recognize the screen.
when my tv is powered off (powercord unpluged) the pi is booting fine and after i turned on the tv everything is working normal.

are there some conditions that will prevent the pi from booting with hdmi connected? and offcourse the real question. how can i fix this?

Kind regards
Mark

It is most likely booting but is outputting to composite rather than HDMI when HDMI is not powered when Pi boots.

Hey,

Thanks for the reply.

The pi isn't responding to ssh.
The green light is constantly on. So I am afraid that this is a different problem.

Kind regards

Green LED on = problem reading files from the SD card.

Hey,

I already know the "not reading from sd card" error.
But that doesn't explain why it is working fine without the tv turned on...

Can you follow the suggestions from my link in previous post anyway?
After that the Pi should have no knowledge of whether the TV is switched on or off.

Hey Dom,

I didn't find this command.
I downloaded the newest version of raspbian and manualy installed kodi on top of this.
now it is working as it should be.

So i think your solution is right.
still strange that the pi isn't passing the post check due to a driver issue....?
but everything is working fine now.
So againg thanks for your help.

there are similar problems.
After reading the forums, I thought that the problem would be SD cards. But this is not so.
If a clean correctly formatted card is in the slot, the device reports the absence of the necessary files.
If the card is not formatted correctly, a message is displayed stating that this is not a fat.
But if the card with the recorded installer of the system, then the device comes to the definition of the card and is silent.
Initial Connections: hdmi
If you turn on without connecting hdmi, then the system is installed, you need to wait until small flashing green lights.
After that, you need to fix the config.txt by uncommenting mode hdmi_safe = 1.
After that, the system boots normally, but without sound.
The inclusion of sound changes in the config file.
For a normal system boot, you must disable the hdmi at boot time, and then connect it.
Question: Is this a normal system operation or a malfunction?
