Hi

My Pi with Xbian 1.0rc3, freezes after a certain time of running.
is powered continuously and connect to tv via a hdmi cable,after a time in idle mod it freezes, no longer receives any command from the tv remote.

The SSH connection is working,and i can reboot the Pi.

The problem occurs only in idle mod,and the TV is switched to the antenna cable.

I think the hdmi setting is the problem.

Sorry form my bad english.

Does it get automagically fixed if you switch the TV off and on again?
What if you disable the CEC functionality in the TV, enable it again and then switch to the Pi input?

Also, try the following (via SSH) on the Pi: Then add the following line to /boot/config.txt: hdmi_edid_file=1

While at it check that it contains this line - if not add it: hdmi_force_hotplug=1

Thank you for your answer ,

when switch the TV off and on, the pi can not be controlled by remote control, need to restart it to work again.

I made the changes, with no results.

This is the config file


#initramfs initramfs.gz 0x1000000
gpu_mem_512=144
gpu_mem_256=100
initial_turbo=3
disable_splash=1
arm_freq=840
core_freq=320
sdram_freq=400
over_voltage=0
hdmi_force_hotplug=1
hdmi_ignore_cec_init=1
hdmi_edid_file=1

turn off the TV standby mode with screensaver . (in xbmc's CEC setup)

Hi , mk01

I did not find it " turn off the TV standby mode with screensaver "
I have only:
in xbmc
Turn CEC capable TV OFF with screensaver = disable
Turn CEC capable TV OFF on RPi shutdown = disable
Turn CEC capable TV ON when XBMC exits = enable
XBMC Dynamic Priority = enable
lower nice priority = 7
higher nice priority = -3

in system\connectiivity:
Force HDMI output when no tv is identified = enable
Ignore HDMI output even if a tv is connected = disable
Ignore CEC init,,preventing wakeup of tv at reboot = disable
Disable CEC = disable
Disable overscan = disable

when i reboot the Xbian, the TV switches to HDMI(where is connected the RPi) via simplink.
If i turn the tv on/off (the RPi is connected and power up)can no longer control the RPi via remote control.
When was power up via TV usb , there were no problems.
But it was a forced shutdown of the RPI, and happened to be the SD card corrupt.
Sorry for my bad bad english.

Some points to note of time calculator:
The settings related to CEC and HDMI output in XBMC and the connection system seem to be set up correctly. However, there are still problems with controlling the Raspberry Pi with the TV remote when the TV is turned on/off.
SD card damage due to forced shutdown can be a separate problem. You can try using a new SD card or recheck the SD card to ensure system integrity.
Additionally, you may want to check the HDMI cable, HDMI port on the Raspberry Pi, and the TV to ensure a stable connection.
