Kodi GUI sometimes restarts starting a movie

Hallo Coreelec Team,

i bought my Odroid n2 Coreelec Bundle in November.

From the Beginning i have problems with Kodi GUI restarting itself.

It only restarts when i start movies.

I tried all coreelec versions available.

I uploaded a log file at dropbox.

I hope somebody can help me.

Yours sincerely

This is an automatic relaunch of Kodi after a system crash and is expected behaviour. Its probably a result of poorly packaged media files crashing the decoder.

Until November i used a intel Nuc with libreelec without these problems,

I played the same files.

The hardware decoders are different.

Does it effect all or just some of your files?

Shoog

I solved the problem myself.
I edited the advancedsettings file to improve buffering. Deleting this setting solved my problem.

Domenik

Good to hear. Sounds like your decoder was giving up before the buffer had filled and reporting a failed stream.

Iā€™m having the same issue, and also on an N2.

Are these the lines you removed from advancedsettings:

	<cache>
		<buffermode>1</buffermode>
		<readfactor>20</readfactor>
		<memorysize>139460608</memorysize>
	</cache>

Nearly the same, i deleted all 3 lines

buffermode
readfactor
memorysize

the issue is gone
