Update your addons/skins:
Hi @Portisch,
I followed your recommendations, and unless I am mistaken, everything is up to date.
However, the artifacts/tearing when the player’s OSD appears persists independently of the Skin.
As well as the crash on the advance of chapter, on some films only. (The last Crash took place at 9:52 p.m.)
you still have non compatible addons running. look at your log, it’s full of errors. when you have fixed them all you can try again. we are not the author of your addons.
this is the worst I think:

This addon do crash whole system, also kernel get a oops.
Thank you for your answer @Portisch
I did what you said. I uninstalled a lot of addons that I don’t think are essential, and in particular SACD addons, then restarted Kodi. Unfortunately I managed to reproduce the 2 bugs.
11:00 p.m.: presence of artefacts at the appearance of the OSD on the AHS sample.
11:02 p.m .: Crash on the progress of the chapter of the film “Everything Everywhere all at once”.

I redid the tests on the very last version of this day. But same results. 
On the Log, there is this mistake that often comes up. Do you know what this is ?
ERROR Get hdmi para by vic
Latest nightly on ng….when I press reboot, it only restarts Kodi, doesn’t do a reboot. Odroid N2
No log, no problem.
We even do not know if ce-20?
Ce-19 is final
Woohoo! Kodi got bumped to 20.0 final in today’s nightly 01/17. Also the sorting inconsistencies v9 → v19/20 got addressed with an interim commit.
Hi, as far as I’m concerned, I filed a log. ^^
Sorry to sound insistent Portisch. I think I got rid of all bad addons, and my system is up to date. I would like to know if you have other avenues to explore ? Do you have a Vim4 on your side ? If so, do you encounter these bugs ?

Sounds to me like a clean install is your best bet. Get it working nicely and backup the mess about with all the skins and stuff, personally don’t bother much with skins and see no artifacts.
Thank you for your answers. Be aware that these two bugs appeared before I installed a Skin. And how can I do a clean install without losing everything, all my settings (remotes, menus, OSD, Covers, etc.) ?
Restoring from a recent backup obviously does not change the problem. Do you recommend that I reset everything to 0 ? It’s months of work. Do you know an alternative ?
We are mostly sure most of your issues will solve by itself when you setup from clean install without restore a backup. You might have something in the backup cause these issues.
And use only add-ons/skins fully compatible with Nexus!
On fresh setup try again and again when issues start to happen. We can only solve issues what we can reproduce and not issues caused by unknown reasons by restore backups.
In the long run, there is no alternative. Either you bite the bullet now, or you will have to deal with all kinds of problems.
Can you just try a clean build to see if the problems persist? And if they don’t just include something like the skin to check for any problems? Step by step, just part of the environment you have in the backup. If you’re lucky you may catch the culprit.
Can you not use different media for clean install?
Like USB flash drive boot from.
EDIT
But is a full reset = clean install ?
If I start again at 0, I would like to know if I should always put my “advancedsettings.xml” file which allowed to increase the definition of Covers and Fanarts. 6 years ago, these were severely limited in definition. It was necessary to put this file to obtain Fanarts in 2160p and Cover in 900p. But what about today ?
Maybe, maybe not. Better start with a fresh flashed spare boot media.
No idea, you will ask in Kodi forum what this can cause and if it works still like this!?
And to be honest: you add such “undocumented” modifications and want us to support it when something is (maybe) wrong?
Well unfortunately, a new clean install of CE from Oowow gives me exactly the same results. I remind you that some of these bugs appeared following an CE update which took place around November.
Reminder of all bugs to date :
Player OSD pop-up artifacts during playback of some 1080p @30hz movies (When GUI Scaling is disabled)
Crash when advancing to the first chapter, on some isolated films
Loss of network when exiting standby
Display settings 1080@120hz → black screen / crash
@Portisch
I may have an idea why you couldn’t reproduce the artifact problem. I just noticed that this bug appears only when disabling “scaling” in the display settings. (the scaling of the interface generates so much aliasing on the covers that I always had the reflex to deactivate it)
Sorry, we are not working exclusively for you. We are very busy at the moment…
I never doubted it. I will wait for you to come back to me. Good luck with all your hard work.
