run_mythsetup.sh failing to start
This morning I was setting up a fresh RPi4 with mythtv v31 using the
pi-utils from https://github.com/MikeB2013/pi-utils.

when it came time to run the setup using the run_mythsetup.sh, it failed to
run and I kept getting the console error message:

Could not queue DRM page flip on screen HDMI1 (Invalid argument)

Jim,

This should now be fixed in latest version at
https://github.com/MikeB2013/pi-utils

As you correctly identified in other posts  series 5.4 kernel update was
causing the issue, fixed with adding QT_QPA_EGLFS_ALWAYS_SET_MODE="1"


Mike

Thanks, I've tested the new script and it works fine.  Also noticing a
lot of updates on the Raspberry PI OS daily.  I know they are working on
the kernel.

I've seen comments about some issue with mythtv frontend and something
called the "compositor", but I have not seen any issues.  I'm running a
test now with a fresh install of the OS, full-upgrade, and then using
your pi-setup_mythtv_31.sh to setup a frontend only. It worked yesterday
on another system but all I did was fix run_mythfrontend.sh

I just did the fresh install of RPi OS and then ran the latest
pi-setup_mythtv_31.sh.  Rebooted, configured which backend to use, and I
have a working frontend.

Not sure what all the talk is about using a "compositor" What I'm doing
seems to be all you need.
