As of that upgrade, video completely stopped working: that is, when playing a video, audio and everything else works, but there's only a black screen, no video! I rolled back to 16 and it works again. Not sure how to go about solving the issue, would like some info/pointers as to what could be wrong. Any ideas?

I am using the exodus add on and for every video I try to view, there are 2 very fast green flashes and then only the audio proceeds to play without any video. Below is the log you requested, if there is anything else you need, please let me know. Thank you for your help!

It sounds as if you don't have the correct codec for video you are trying to play. Do you have the Ubuntu Restricted Extras package installed?

Kodi doesn't need any extra codecs, we ship everything needed.
