Does this latest build freeze at the KODI screen as well? I could not use the second most recent build as it fails to boot properly.
I am using a Raspberry Pi 3, installed with stock OpenElec via NOOBS.
No addon .db file to delete because its a brand new installation with no library and no plugins. So no, it did not solve my problem
Thanks!

Hi,
today the latest build #0401 froze once during idle, ssh connection was not possible and I need a to reboot (pull the plug). kodi.old.log did not show any abnormal entries.
A few seconds ago the same build cause Kodi to restart, when I tried to start a playing a video.
In dmesg I found the following entries:
[25339.332460] Alignment trap: not handling instruction f402602d at [<754ffd68>]
[25339.332476] Unhandled fault: alignment exception (0x801) at 0x5e2ec008
[25339.332482] pgd = a591c000
[25339.332486] [5e2ec008] *pgd=28f8d831, *pte=0371075f, *ppte=03710c7f
[25403.898683] vchiq: 0: ignoring ERROR from callback to service d004
Last entry in kodi.old.log is consistent with my last activity:
22:02:49 25339.037109 T:1058010016 NOTICE: CDVDVideoCodecFFmpeg::Open() Using codec: H.264 / AVC / MPEG-4 AVC / MPEG-4 part 10
Does this help in any way?
This did not happen with any previous build and I don't expect to be able to reproduce it.
EDIT: This was caused by a 'bad' video. This video as barely playable with VLC. Therefore this seems not to be a problem of the latest KODI build.

Just realised the RSS ticker has become enabled by default again in these builds... RSS is being disabled by default in LE so I temporarily disabled the patch and then forgot to re-enable it for OE builds... it will be fixed in the next build.

Hi,
I'm using build #0401 and for also expreienced strange behaviour of freezing idle, ssh connection was not possible and I need a to cold reboot via pull the plug. Additionally during last evening movie watch I had few restarts of Kodi during playback. I have watched few different files and after 30-40 minutes from restart Kodi it happens again and again.
I have downloaded now new build. I'll check today if this persists with the same files I have watched yesterday.
