I was going to just wire a bridge to each HDMI port but my god that is a really small area to work with. I am good at Soldering but aint no way in hell I can solder that small. I am going to look for that post where ever it is that someone just used 2 break out boards to bypass the grabber

Hi all

I made a cool discovery that relates to this post.

I bought this grabber on AliExpress : https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003604965409.html

First thing I did is open the case and check for continuity on pin 13. Unfortunately, pin 13 is not connected so I placed the PCB under the microscope and followed the pin 13 trace. I found out that the trace is complete but they intentionally left the circuit open.

Look for the missing resistor (R12) shown by the red arrow.

Here is a closer view:

I don't know why they two this but it's very easily fixed. Simply bridge the gap with a short wire and you're good to go!

You now have a grabber with CEC, HDMY loop out and HDCP 2.2 !!!

Hope that helps!

I have what appeared to be the same grabber from amazon. I opened mine up hoping to solve my cec problems. Sadly

the board I have is ever so slightly different

I thought I could shed some light on chromo23's post. I am not a power user and I have spent my evening working through the basic information here. LibreElec is a barebones Linux which is why you can't use any command lines that use "sudo" or "apt-get".

There is this link that does work on pi4 and older it calls up script that does work in place of sudo and apt-get commands. It won't work on a Pi5. chromo23 took the script used in the forum url below and modified it to work with pi 5

Install Hyperion on LibreElec pi4 and older

Here is what I did:

You will need an SSH client and filezilla

Download the files chromo23 posted and put them in a folder on your desktop:

updated script and missing libs

Download this Hyperion version and put it in a folder on your desktop:

Hyperion-2.0.15-Linux-armv7l.tar.gz

With filezilla log on to your pi. settings are typically

Protocol: SFTP

Host: your pi's IP

port 22

Once logged onto you pi with FileZilla navigate to /storage in the file structure. Drag libreelec.sh and Hyperion-2.0.15-Linux-armv7I.tar.gz there.

With your SSH client log onto your pi.

Run the following commands:

Make chromo23's Script Executable: chmod +x libreelec.sh

Execute the Script with Hyperion version as an argument: ./libreelec.sh Hyperion-2.0.15-Linux-armv7l.tar.gz

With filezilla navigate to: /storage/hyperion/lib and drag all the files in the missing lib folder there. Filezilla asked if I wanted to overwrite some files, I choose to skip the files that were already there.

open a tab on your browser and enter: http://your_pi_IP:8090/#dashboard

For me this appears to work. I ran out of time to test Hyperion's functionality but the web GUI did load and seemed ok. My apologies if that was hard to read or unclear, I have never tried to spread my knowledge in any forum.

For the life of me I couldn't figure out how to edit my post.

What I am looking for is a way for hyperion to only be active during a video. Not in menu or paused.
My current setup is a pi4 running LibreElec. Years ago when hyperion was young I did manage to do this.

Kudos to sanzoghenzo who updated the Hyperion grabber Kodi add-on to have it working on Nexus.

Find here the new version.

I noticed at link provided it said

1. This plugin does not work for Kodi running on Raspberry Pi. There is an outstanding Kodi fix for that.

Bummer about kodo on pi but is there any way for similar functionality?
