AM6B+ will not Reboot or Restart Kodi

Hi all,

CE 21.1 Stable

Will not Reboot or Restart via the power menu. No issues restarting Kodi or rebooting via CLI.

Any ideas appreciated.

Debug Log

Seems this is a known issue:

I had that issue on my amb6pluss too, it felt somewhat random sometimes it would hang on shutdown or restart sometimes it wouldn’t.

Had to ssh and use cli when it hung.

Since then I upgraded to an am8pro and have not had this issue at all.

I thought I was an isolated case, but I have the same problem. My entire device freezes when I click on “Shutdown”. The screen doesn’t turn off, it’s freezing. I have to unplug it from the socket and plug it in again.

@gregeeh when you remove the YouTube and InputStream Adaptive Addon, if it’s fixed for you ?
Because you post this:

interesting, I might be experiencing similar issue. It doesn’t hang, but sometimes there’s a short freeze before shutdown and on every shutdown regardless I get crash logs generated (will have to test if this happens with extra addons disabled).
edit: irrelevant, already fixed

Try last nightly!

oops, will double check again as I’m already running latest build, maybe that’s already fixed… thanks!
edit: yes, indeed it’s fixed, had a bunch of crash logs there, the last one was from 23.09 and not generated anymore, shutdown seems relatively instant in comparison. thanks again

No one using CE is impacted by the referenced issue.

Edit: A stable version of CE that is. In your case disable your OzWeather plugin or any SlyGuy plugins utilising the common SlyGuy proxy. One of those is hanging and preventing Kodi from shutting down cleanly.
