Been using Ayufan's A6.1TV HDMI build for quite some time now. We use it primarily for Kodi and Netflix. Until last night.
Last night I noticed the board was off. This was odd to me because we let it run continuously, 24/7. But the other half has been known to unplug it before, so I checked the power supply. Still plugged in to the wall with the OEM power supply. Hmm... Check the supply at the board. Yep, still plugged in. OK.... Let's power it on with the power button, holding the button down long enough for the red led to brighten slightly after initial power-up. Ok, Samsung TV seems to recognize incoming signal (1080/60p). After a few moments of no activity, the tv said "no signal." I looked at the pine, and the led power indicator was out.
What?????
Maybe retrying the previous process will do the trick.
Nope.
Hmm....
Maybe the PNY SD card went bad. Let's try the Samsung Evo SD card with WiKi's Rooted A5.1.1 LCD build burned on it.
Hey! The LCD still works! Booting hangs on the PINE A64 screen for a couple minutes, but A5.1.1 LCD eventually boots. Of course, still no HDMI display, but I know it's not meant to have HDMI & LCD outputs simultaneously.
Ok great, my pine didn't destroy itself or something.
Let's try the PNY SD card again with Ayufan's A6.1TV HDMI.
Same as before. Nothing and shut off on its own.
Ok, let's try the official Pine 64 SD card with Rasbian burned on it. Yep, that works. (I'm illiterate with that os, so I don't use it)
Ok...
Let's use Apple-pi Baker on OSX 10.12.4 to burn Auyfan's tried and true A6.1TV HDMI build on the official Pine 64 SD card.
After successfully "baking" my pi, I double checked the .uEnv file on the BOOT disk for uncommented 1080/60p (per my tv). Ok, that's good to go. Eject "BOOT" from MacBook.
This is it. It's going to work.
Nope. Exactly the same outcome as my original PNY SD card with the same, long-time working, A6.1TV HDMI build from Ayufan.
It's time for bed, let's ask the community tomorrow.
Does anybody have any ideas as to why my pine will not boot A6.1TV HDMI and even shut off shortly after powering on?
Sorry for the lengthy post, I just wanted to be as clear and accurate as possible while conveying my issue to you guys (and gals).
Thanks!
*ETA*
I just burned WiKi's Android 7.1 TV. Uncommented 1080p60 and booted. Kodi is up and running again. Still curious as to anybody else had the 6.1 issues I experienced and or solutions.
Thanks!
