Automatic commercial skipping worked fine in Kodi 16.

Upgraded to Kodi 17 and when commercial mark is reached, kodi announces "commercial break" and then goes to black screen and freezes. Hitting forward skip will cause 30-second skip, but then commercial not skipped.

Ubuntu 16.04.2 with kernel 4.8.

I haven't collected a log yet, but same issue with logs posted by another user at [url]http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=198833&pid=2522974#pid2522974

Will this fix be in a krypton update, or will we have to wait for Leia?

is this only a known issue for ubuntu, or for all of kodi? because it happens with me in windows 7 as well.
