I've run out of ideas Derek but thanks for the moral encouragement. I'm hoping it won't take many years. I even tried version 16 rc yesterday to no avail even though I found a couple of bugs in it, but that doesn't help my poor Kodi. It would have been nice to have a developer join in with a thought or two. Meanwhile, Pot Player does an excellent job.

What's Kryoton and where do I find it? I can't see anything on the site that points to it.

Yeah portable is AWESOME option it lets you install as many versions of kodi as you want without disturbing your real install,
Just run the installer but DONT choose upgrade to say C:\kodi17 then edit the shortcut to C:\kodi17\kodi -p (Just add a -p)
This runs in portable mode and saves EVERYTHING in a directory called portable_data under the install dir as said above C:\kodi17\portable_data i.e. userdata and all the db files etc.
Best option ever! its in the wiki if you want to confirm.

Didn't have a lot of joy with this. It isn't upgrading as I took 15.2 out completely. I always to use Revo to do any uninstall as few native uninstallers do the job completely and the Kodi uninstaller is no different. Anyway, I installed this build as a fresh install but it crashes on load as one of the DLLs isn't cooperating.
