A more relevant comparison would be the same version of Kodi in LE vs. Recent versions of Kodi/LE have changed how GPU/CPU handle audio/video compared to previous versions of Kodi/OE. The above crashes are reproducible by repeating the above sequence of operations. Power cycle and switch visualizations back to 'Shadertoy' using the settings menu before resuming playback (finding that menu's have reverted to yesterday's configuration screen resolution has reverted to DESKTOP, and "Enable CD case and disk art" and "Diffuse music visualization with artist fanart" have reverted to factory defaults.

Wait for system to come back up, restart playback of same track crash and reboot follows after about a second of music playback. Playback halts screen freezes, reboot after a few seconds. Play music, switch visualizations using the Visualizations Setting button in the Music Playback OSD. What I did to produce the crash that generated the above log files: None of the above ever occurs with my old OE 6.0.3 install, which should rule out hardware issues with the RPi3. Instability issues occur with two installations on two different SD cards, which should rule out the SD card as a possible source of problems.
#KODI 17 VISUALIZATIONS RASPBERRY PI SKIN#
Xonfluence skin installed from the helly repo everything else from standard repo's.
#KODI 17 VISUALIZATIONS RASPBERRY PI INSTALL#
Clean install of LE 8.0.1 from image LibreELEC-RPi2.arm-8.0.1.img on 8GB micro SD card. Raspberry Pi 3 with 2 Toshiba USB harddisks via self-powered, non-backpowering USB hub, and a VRC-1100 MCE IR Remote Control receiver. These are the crash logs that (according to their time/date stamps) should cover the crashes/reboots that occurred just before I pastebinned the lot. I've done the above for both kodi.log and, as well as for the two recent crash logs that I find in the same subdirectory. Thank you so much for responding- it's greatly appreciated. Thanks!!Ĭode pastebinit /storage/.kodi/temp/Īfter the reboot and get us the links you will receive. Question 3: What could cause the display resolution to revert to the factory default without affecting other settings?Īny pointers in the right directions would be appreciated. When that happens I need to restore the resolution to 1920x1080p and do another screen calibration to adjust the overscan to its correct settings.

One last funny thing is that after a crash more often than not my display resolution settings have reverted from full screen HD to DESKTOP, with a refresh rate of either 60fps or 59.94fps. Question 2: Is there anything in terms of debug logging (either module-specific or not) that may hint at what causes these reboots? Another possible culprit could be the Xonfluence skin, seeing as whenever I edit a menu options and there's a reboot shortly after that, I loose the latest menu edits and the menu's revert to what they were before the last (but not the previous) change. The Shadertoy visualization doesn't seem entirely stable (most reboots occur while "playing" with the different visualizations during music playback) and the visualizations are off-center and not full-screen, and also sometimes fail to come on-screen. I suspect that not LE/Kodi itself but one of the add-ons is the problem. So how do problems with Kodi cause these reboots? Is there a watchdog process somewhere that reboots the system in response to an unrecoverable error state in Kodi? Question 1: Since Kodi is an app running on top of Linux, I can't see how a Kodi crash could corrupt the Linux OS to the point where it crashes into a reboot (that shouldn't be possible). navigating menu's and selecting options) but occasionally also during playback, Kodi will just freeze for a few seconds, followed by either one or by multiple reboots. Since I upgraded to LE 8.0.1 on my Raspberry Pi 3 (with all add-ons up-to-date as well) I'm enjoying the improvements in Kodi 17 (over Kodi 15 which I had on my previous OE install) but unfortunately I'm also having serious stability problems.
