Blank screen if osmc starts with TV off

Maybe this question have already been answered, but I couldn’t find it using the search tool.
If I start (or restart) osmc with the TV off, osmc boots ok, but kodi does not start. I always have to turn on the TV before starting/restarting osmc.
This happens in both RPI2 and RPI3b+. Any clue for that?
Thanks.

Yes, that’s what it does. If there’s no HDMI display, your Pi will activate CVBS by default. There may be a config line you can add to force HDMI output. It will be the same for OSMC or Raspbian.
