<div dir="ltr">been looking for the optimum mythfrontend playback on an RPI4. I've pretty much mastered what the RPI OS Bullseye 64 bit will do and it's very close to really good.<div><br></div><div>I recently discovered that the Endeavour OS folks can install Archlinux on either a x86_64 or RPI4 very easily and I've gotten both to work, but on RPI4 I'm having a few issues.</div><div><br></div><div>I'm only testing mythfrontend on the RPI4 with the backend being my production BE. My first test was to run mythfrontend while running a Desktop environment. In my case it's KDE Plasma 5.25. the frontend could not use UPNP to find the server maybe because of my firewall. But I could manually file in the database ip and password, and that worked.</div><div><br></div><div>In fact I could play the recording with remarkable quality. However, like when running RPI OS 64 bit I usually get the best quality running from the command line without out the DE.</div><div><br></div><div>So to that end I disabled sddm.service and rebooted to the command line. I use the command:</div><div><span style="font-family:monospace"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0)">QT_QPA_EGLFS_ALWAYS_SET_MODE="1" QT_QPA_PLATFORM=eglfs QT_QPA_EGLFS_KMS_CONFIG=./pi_mythfrontend.json mythfron</span>tend --noupnp --logpath /home/jim<br>
<br></span></div><div><span style="font-family:monospace">It's all one line in the .sh file. However, once at the main minute I can't get it to respond to any keyboard commands so I can't test anything.</span></div><div><span style="font-family:monospace"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family:monospace">The kernel is </span>Linux rpi4-plasma 5.15.49-1-rpi-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Jun 24 13:24:15 MDT 2022 aarch64 GNU/Linux</div><br><div>I've attached the log file</div><div><br></div><div>Any ideas on this?</div><div><br></div><div>Jim A</div><div><br></div></div>
