        Temporary solution (thanks to @Pitch64 on discord ) to fix problem with black screen and cec not working:
        With ssh:
        mount -o remount,rw /boot
        nano /boot/config.txt
        search for dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d and modify with dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d
        Save file (Ctrl + o)
        Reboot

        Raspberry pi 4 2Go,RGBDual, Recalbox 8.1-64bits, share sur NAS nfs Yunohost (raspberry pi 3).
        Gpi Case Rpi 0 µSD 32Go Recalbox 8.1

            Thanks a lot for the solution. Can someone explain how this change affects Kodi behavior? I ask this because I experience decreased performances when watching some h264 videos.
            Thank you in advance.

                @RB2021 You must log on your rasp through ssh (putty.exe by example) and follow the indication written before.
                You might find your rasp IP on your network, on the Recalbox UI or by other means.
                Default credentials are well known by all (root / recalboxroot) but i'll advice you to change them later on

                You'll need to know a lil' bit about how to modify a file with nano but i guess it can be handled even without documentation.

                I'm not myself a linux master, far from it, i'll try to add some precision on how i handle theses :

                Step by step

                • mount -o remount,rw /boot
                  #It allows enough permission to proceed

                • nano /boot/config.txt
                  #It open the config.txt file with the nano tool

                • search for dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d and modify with dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d
                  #You'll have to navigate into the config.txt to find the following info and change it

                • Save file (Ctrl + o)
                  #For myself, i do CTRL+X (to quit after change) , then Y (to say Yes to over write file), then enter to get out.

                • Reboot
                  #Just type it in, or reboot by other means

                Hope it helps ya ! From the noob i am too 😛

                      You are welcome ! Pas d'quoi 😉

                      My family needed Kodi (& my Nas content) to survive this era 😄 So the @Pitch64 workaround helped a lot !
