Info-beamer hosted OS 14 release thread

Updated to 240506-552176:

  • Fix EEPROM update condition on Pi4/Pi5
  • Avoid briefly switching resolutions on info-beamer restart when changing setups.
  • Fixed H264 playback on Pi4 (oops)
  • Improved info-beamer to support both RGBA and BGRA pixel formats for future content process plugins
  • Potentially improved rendering performance when using fully opaque textures
  • Improved CEC handling. Might hopefully be more compatible with more displays?

Known issues:

  • PoE hats don’t really automatically adjust fan RPM. Note sure yet why that doesn’t work: The necessary modules and overlays should all be there. See this other post.
