I'm brand new to the Kodi world, and not relatively amazing with all this techy stuff. I've used tutorials online thus far to set everything up and get all my add-ons, but everytime i try to play a video in any program, it freezes right after i click it. It will load for a second, but right after it brings up the time counter for the movie the program freezes and as soon as a button is pressed or mouse is clicked, the program says its unresponsive and asks to close. Any help in plain english would be GREATLY appreciated, would love to get started on this and get rid of cable. Thanks in advance !

I am having the same issue. Help anyone?

OK in "plain english" what add-ons are you trying to use - and before you answer, please have a look at the sticky at the top of the section - in red. Then come back to this thread.

Kodi freezes time to time at the end of the track or when I try to exit the application (no crashlogs). Does posting logs help?

^^Yes : Debug Log

Apologies...

Debug log: http://goo.gl/9DWyGD

Possible that the music database is corrupt as it is having trouble resolving path.
Can you test with a local file played from file view without being scanned into library.

[sterna]

I can try it. Anyway when I play an album (that freezes) again, everything works well.

[k4sh1n]

This could also mean the path was unavailable at the time, i.e. source wakes up from disk spin down?
Try to set so source does not power down on idle

I tested with file view and the program got frozen. Here is the link to debug log: http://goo.gl/mSkVao

I should have made my post more clearer.
Copy a single file to a folder on your PC
Add as a local source with none set as content
Then play file

Suggest you copy the single .flac/.mp3 file to c:/ drive for testing.

As log file indicates: "ERROR: XFILE::CDirectory::GetDirectory"

Hopefully I understood right: http://goo.gl/hIqKef

The test folder you used for the .flac file looks to be ok, I'm guessing there was no freeze on this instance as indicated via log files?
If so seems there might be an issue with accessing files on your E:// drive.
On first attempt to resolve path it fails due to idling and works on second attempt after waking disk up.

Try going to advanced power setting and changing the hard disk turn off time to a higher value.

My hard disk turn off time is set to never! When playback stops (freezes) it is usually one second before next track. At that point the program is still running. If I select another track to be played the program stops working. If I for instance select albums from music-library menu I get this error message - http://www.tiira.net/webimages/kodiErrorMsg.jpg
