Just to add to this thread, I'm getting exactly the same problem as the OP.
Every-time I try to play a video file I get the same error, and it isn't file dependant, I have tried with avi's, mkv, wmv, mov, m4p and all give the same error.
Will watch this thread closely for a potential fix

There will be no fix here as noone is posting logs. Try the thread I already pointed to.

Thanks Nickr
Am going to try a system restore as I believe a MSpatch went on prior to it all stopping working. Fingers crossed that is the case and I can report back with the MS KB number!

If you don't want to crash all the time, time to try openelec.

ok try the following it might work for you, it worked for me:
1) go to regedit.exe ( Run as Administrator )
2) Click on HKEY_CURRENT_USER
3) Then find the folder name " Software " ( click )
4) Find the folder name " Kodi " After clicking on the " Software " folder
5) Right click the folder name " Kodi " and click on DELETE
6) close the program & restart computer
7) Install a fresh version of Kodi or XBMC
8) Done

All of these posts are just bloody guesses without log files.

Thanks Pussy, will bear that in mind.
nickr - you're right they are all guesses. Since my last post I've been running the debug and played countless media formats including audio file and I've not been able to get it to fail once. So, going over the Microsoft update logs and there is one for a Western Digital Hard Disk, but since I restored my machine to an earlier point, I turned off automatic installation of updates. Thus I am guessing that this is the problem patch.
I'm going to install it later, run the debug and see if it fails, if it does, then maybe I can get a log file posted we can see exactly what is happening!
