    Hello!
    I checked „Autostart Kodi (Video)“, but It doesn’t start until I click manually on the button.
    Why?

    My autostart.conf:

    # Autostart Config File for Loading Services by Cronjob under User odroid
# to edit cronjob login as odroid and "crontab -l"
# Cronjob loads start_audioplayer.sh 
# 1 = autostart, 0 = no autostart
squeezelite=1
shairport=0
xbmc=0
Max2PlayNetworkLookup=1
squeezeslave=0
jivelite=0
autostartxserver=1
kodi=1
ympd=0
mpd=0
bluetooth=1

    Hi Arianna,

    If you manually did this manually please either try changing xbmc to 1 or burn a new image and only use the tick for Kodi autostart.

    I didn’t change autostart.conf manually. I only checked the kodi value in the file.
    I tried with xbmc=1 manually in the file and it doesn’t works.
    It’s very strange: this is the second time I try with a new image, but it happened same thing.

    Do you have an output after booting? Does the device load the desktop?

    Which image did you download and what device are you using?

    I used „Max2Play Raspberry Pi ALL incl. 3B+ (SD-Card Image based on Raspbian Stretch)“ (m2p_stretch_rpi_245.img.zip)
    Before this I used the version with Debian Jessie and I had the same problem

    I just tested with RPi 3B+ and a new Stretch Image and the autostart worked. What device are you using?

    My device is a Raspberry PI 3, not B+.
    But with the other image, m2p_rpi_default_244_wps_ap_expand.img with Raspbian Jessie doesn’t work too.

    Do you perhaps have another HDMI cable or screen to make sure this is not causing the issue? As mentioned, I cannot recreate this error on any test device.

    I use HDMI as default.
    But my Raspberry comes with LCD display (unused for now)

    was your screen on when you boot the pi? if not, this might be the issue.

    yes, I tried it in different ways 🙁

    very odd, so the boot sequence loads on the screen, the desktop is established, but clicking start on the web interface for Kodi does not start Kodi in the desktop? And this occurs even with an image where you have not done anything yet?

    No! If I click on Start Kodi, it starts!
    Simply AUTOSTART doesn’t work.
    I have to start Kodi manually every time I restart my raspberry.

    Got it, please check the Jivelite menu if you have not to make sure there is not autostart set there.

    Also, what does the debug info log of Kodi say and what is the last lines in the boot sequence?

    I’ve been away from home for months.
    Now I’m back and I restart my Rasp… but I don’t remember where the kodi logs are!

    Hi Arianna,

    Please check the bottom of the Kodi menu in Max2Play, there’s a field called „debug info“.
