I’m a new user of osmc on raspberry since Kodi update to 19. I use Kodi only for listen music on my raspberry pi 3 b+.
So i installed osmc but if there is no screen pluged to pi3, Osmc boot but after osmc logo, the media center doesn’t start. Green led of the raspberry blinks 5 times.
For your informations, i can’t backup to Kodi 18. Because i upgrade my mysql server to 19. I had kodi 19 on Windows computers
hi @fzinken,
thks for your support. I tried your solution to put disable_fw_kms_setup=0 in config.txt but still not work. i also tried this solution in config-user.txt but not work.
If i connect screen to HDMI port.everything is alright: OSMC logo then media center starts
If screen is not connect to HDMI port, The raspberry green led blinks 4 times slow and 1 fast. I have also no connection with SSH
Had a go at this and the only thing I could get to work for a headless boot was changing
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d,cma-512
to
dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d,cma-512
in config.txt. The ramifications of this I would have to leave to someone else but if your just playing audio I don’t think the video driver change should be an issue. Booting headless by default is going to output composite video. If you want to be able to connect a hdmi display without rebooting and get video output then you will need to add the following in as well…
I just tried with only disable_fw_kms_setup=0 in config-user.txt and config.txt (before, i let hdmi_force_hotplug=1 and disable_fw_kms_setup=0 together) and… tada it works !!!
