      I had to change my video driver in the config from "dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d-pi4" to dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d.

      Nobody mentioned it, because it shouldn't be necessary...
      As far as I know (let me make something clear: I'm not a developer, I'm just an "ordinary" user) this tweak you mention is only necessary due to a bug with CEC PULSE EIGHT on KODI, see here:

      • https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/23883/radpberry-pi4-kodi-black-screen-7-2/14
      • https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/24211/maj-7-1-1-vers-7-2-1-bien-mieux-mais-pb-cec-pulse-eight

      it freezes at the recalbox slpash screen

      It may not be related to the composite cable, see here:

          @iga If it doesn't work automatically, make the changes suggested above and test, it should work.

            @zing You mean change to dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d ?

            • yes, i've already try it - same effect as above - stuck at splash screen with pacman

            I'm just wondering is this the case for everyone with 7.2.2 ?

              Ok, i again formatted sd card and install ready image by balenaEtcher.
              And so after change line to dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d in config.cfg the picture is appear. ( this is important information, probably it should be added somewhere in the manual)

              Everybody thanks.

                    • What is your version of Recalbox (say the version, don't say "latest")?
                    • Did you build your Recalbox yourself, or download a ready-made image from the internet, or did you buy everything ready-made?
                    • What is your hardware?
                    • Are you sure the problem is not the cable? The documentation explains that this can happen with wrong cables.
