Hi Bjorn, Thorsten, I apologize -- I did not see this email until now; I think I have to work on my gmail filters and labels. I've just made a post on the Bugzilla website regarding this regression and have ideas on what may be causing the problem. Unfortunately, the error cannot be reproduced on my RPi4 or Broadcom STB version of the 2711. Hopefully Cyril can help me identify the issue. I will try to get a Fixup ASAP.
