Hi everyone,
Just wanted to say that I've been encountering this issue since the first version of XBMC Android and my phone / tablet, etc. I never tried to find a fix before.
I've received today my new Nvidia Shield Android TV, and installed Kodi 16, and was very upset to discover the issue was still there with the latest version.
This time, I wanted to know why these crashes happen. Everytime I try to update my library through SMB share, Kodi crashes.
I scratched my head for a while, and found a fix that works with my system (two DNS-323 NAS). I had to rename the folders where my movies are stored, removing spaces and special characters in the folder name. They were names "Films SD Français" (notice the "ç" in the folder name), and now with "FilmsSDFR" it stopped crashing.
Hope this help future users that will come accross this post.
