        @xristoskon said in Problem with recalbox on pi3 via NOOBS:

        I have just installed debian and recalbox , on pi 3 . As the debian boots correctly , recalbox doesnt boot at all and my monitor goes off while it boots , it means it gets no sygnal .
        What should i do
        Bellow my configs :
        recalbox-boot.conf:

        sharedevice=INTERNAL
        global.videomode=default

        config.txt:

        uncomment if you get no picture on HDMI for a default "safe" mode

        #hdmi_safe=1

        disable_overscan=1

        uncomment to force a specific HDMI mode (this will force VGA)

        #hdmi_group=1
        #hdmi_mode=1

        comment to get jack audio

        #hdmi_drive=2

        Using /etc/modules is deprecated and no longer supported on 4.4 kernel

        So manually enable audio

        dtparam=audio=on

        config_hdmi_boost=0

        force hdmi while the tv can take time before sending the signal on the hdmi output

        #hdmi_force_hotplug=1

        uncomment for composite PAL

        #sdtv_mode=2

        uncomment for lirc-rpi

        #dtoverlay=lirc-rpi

        if you plug your tv at the same time as your rpi and that the rpi switches from the hdmi or give a low resolution because tv had no enough time to initialize it

        boot_delay=3

        uncomment if you don't want the rainbow at startup

        disable_splash=1

        Overclock

        gpu_mem_256=128
        gpu_mem_512=256
        gpu_mem_1024=512

        #avoid_safe_mode=1
        disable_overscan=0
        overscan_scale=1
        sdtv_mode=2
        hdmi_group=1
        hdmi_mode=16

        any suggestions ?

        I have some ploblem with my recalbox in multiboot.

          May be related to some newer pi3 boards, that's what the raspberry guy told me

            @Substring Also for me, Recalbox via NOOBS does not work at all! If I use your img file downloaded from here everything is fine!
            But, if I use NOOBS to install RECALBOX with other o.s. (or even alone!) does not work !!
            The result is a white (or sometimes gray) screen. I tried every possible combination of the config.txt file but with no result! I think the problem is in the same image of Recalbox for noobs ... 😢
            I use Raspberry Pi 3 (not new B+ model obviously!).

                I have exactly the same issue. I had working triple boot with PINN, Libreelec, Recalbox and Raspbian. since last manual reinstall from PINN, I have Screen issue with the screen resolution. The OS seems to boot because there is sound from the HDMI but the resolution is out of range.

                  @substring I downloaded the last version of NOOBS (2.7.0) from raspberry site:
                  https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/noobs/
                  Recalbox is not compatible with this version of NOOBS.....
                  Now I found an old version (NOOBS 2.4.5) and whit this one all works fine....

                    @maxmoro77 raspberry told me they "disabled" recalbox until we're compatible with 3b+. This could be linked

                        Had the same issue with the same dualboot, solved it with using the 2.4 version of Noobs.
