Updating of widewine cdm solved “Integration-DRM" and “IRQRatio___ERR.irq” i dont see now.

But always is issue with looping my streams in PVR (in CE21NG are these streams ok). Youtube and Netflix are ok on both system 21ng and 22no.

So here are logs from last build. Always are loops in tv streams. SimpleIPTV was used in test. These stream services with input stream 21.5.17.1 are ok in CE21NG.

I feel that is not issue of coreelec but third addons which not reflected changes in inputstream.adaptive addon.

Few days ago downgrading to Input stream adaptative 21.5.9 would bypass the issue.

But you would prefer to update to ISA 21.5.17.1 that will solve this issue👍

I have always without “pause“ from october this issue with streams, and also at last input streamer adaptive 22.3.2.1. (i dont see possibility for installing of alternative versions to CE22NO or i dont have idea that how).

Trouble are with some streams in loop. This bug is only in CE22NO. CE21NG is ok with identical streams.

After that 3 minutes of playing is stoped looping and stream play correct. Identical behaviour is with last build from 29.11.2025. Issue with buffer ?

I think it’s better to search and ask for help there:

We just build the binary - nothing else.

ok

Same with PVR addons:

I think this is self explained?

In CE21ng is going identical stream without issue (i use CE21NG now due to this problem at CE22NO. Before cca 15.10.2025 was not problem with these streams also in CE22NO).

Then report this please to the add-on author.
We can’t do anything.

You can not compare CE-21 to CE-22 version as the old version is not maintained anymore for a while. Not from the author, not from platform.

Issue is checked.

In this case (these streams only at CE22NO) the video is playing near the live edge
and caused some kind of abnormality.

Maybe is fixed in version of inputstream.adaptive addon from today.

Bug is really fixed. We must wait at next new version of addon.

There was today officialy realised new version of addon:

Do you have issues with video steam freeze on CE22-20251207+IPTV simple and ISA addon?

Videoplay (live tv stream) starts good with 100% video cache but after some short time video cache goes from 100% to 0% and video stream freezes.

Same mpd/m3u8 works without issus on OSX latest nightly Kodi 22

You must have updated widevine with newer ISA. I dont have issue with Netflix and IPTV.

Ok, now i know addon Antik, which is ok at windows version of Kodi 22, but not at Coreelec. Author of addon said that is crashed at system failure and not at addon failure. Bug is also at last build and have identical symptons: cache at 100% and after 20nseconds is at 0% and video is stopped.
