OK, I have logs now... three of them. All three can be fetched from my FTP server as follows:
Log File A
Log File B
Log File C
The first log file was produced when I just/only used Kodi to play a 2 minute commercial demo/marketing video that was produced by the company that makes these tablets. It is 720p and about 3Mbps. The corresponding MP4 file (~ 55MB) is available here:
Test Video A
The second log file was produced when I just/only used Kodi to play the first minute or so of the 1080p 2D 30fps "Big Buck Bunny" video. I stopped the playback when I saw the video getting all screwy. The corresponding MP4 file (~ 263 MB) is available here:
Test Video B
The third log file was produced when I used Kodi to just/only play a 44 second clip which was present as a stand-alone file on the Saving Private Ryan BluRay. (In this case Kodi screwed up entirely. The files menu did not go away when playback started, and underneath that the screen was just all black. But then again, all four cores were pegged at 100% utilization during most of the playback, so perhaps none of this is Kodi's fault, and the CPU/GPU just doesn't have what it takes to play Blu-Ray level content.) The corresponding M2TS file (~ 113 MB) is available here:
Test Video C
Please note that I have very minimal connectivity here, so don't be surprised if fetching any of the video files listed above proceeds quite slowly.
