Does your Pi3 (not +) eject the try when using #0522?

Can you try a different power supply (with higher rating, at least 2.5A)? What is the spec of your current PSU? The Pi3+ can consume more power than a Pi3.

just play party modus

I don't have a "Party Modus" so without knowing what steps you are taking to produce the crash, I'm unable to investigate further.

If I...:
1. Navigate down to "Music"
2. Click on the "Playlists" category widget
3. Click on "Party mode list"

then I'm shown an "Edit smart playlist" dialog.

What now? Is this what you are calling "Party Modus"? Or is "Party Modus" an add-on? I really have no idea. Maybe some screenshots? Even better, a video?

(2018-05-22, 12:34)Catscrash Wrote: [ -> ]I contacted Yatse developer, to get to the root of the kodi crash when browsing folders with srt-files in yatse.

Turns out, Kodi returns mimetype "application/octet-stream" for srt-files, which it also uses for image files, so yatse tries to access the file as an image, which leads to the kodi crash since the currently used ffmpeg version.

How can we make sure, that kodi in the future either returns a proper mimetype, or ffmpeg handles it better (like before build 20171020)?

I deinstall this App, because have some rebbots on listen music.
It seemes, that this app works in the backround (do not aktivated).
With the "kore" app i have absolut no problem.

i do not have any desire for a talk with Tol... i want a running LE :-)

In Estuary you click on Music -> titles -> then left and there is  switch to start Party Mode This should load a bunch of song ins random and then play.

Right thanks - so for me that is working (I'm using MySQL), and I have 7384 songs in my Music library.

How many songs do you have in your library (you can run texturecache.py stats for a breakdown)?

Are you using MySQL or SQLite? At what point is Kodi crashing - while the "Filling glasses/drinks..." dialog is visible, or once the list of songs appears (I see a list of 10 songs), or while playing back one of these songs (maybe while switching tracks?)

I have a feeling something like this may have come up before - Kodi can be inefficient about how it handles large playlists, particularly when pumping out JSON playlist updates to consuming clients. If you're using Yatse then try it without Yatse running _anywhere_, on _any_ device - Yatse can be a very "chatty" application, constantly hammering Kodi (potentially multiple Kodi clients) for status updates it could instead receive via JSON event notifications (at least, that's how it used to work when I took the time too look at it some time ago, maybe it's improved since then).

Did you identify the first build when Party Mode stopped working? I wonder if a debug-enabled build will provide a more useful crash-log (I'll see about uploading a debug build overnight).

 I still see a bad performance with that high bitrate Elysium video (compared to a ffmpeg 3 builds).

I haven't had a working build since 0421. Latest builds freeze upon searching in addons and requires a power cycle. As for 0421, rock solid except no resume points are saved which is annoying. Sorry no logs, I just try each nightly but haven't had time to do anything other than that, just reporting my experiences.

Thanks, it's odd that I can't reproduce - you're using SQLite I assume?

I had hoped to upload a debug build overnight but we're having a problem building LibreELEC with debug at the moment, and Real Life means I have limited time for Kodi/LE but will see if I can get a debug-enabled build uploaded later tonight, or tomorrow. Or next week.

Are you testing with stock Estuary, or a custom skin? I've just tested the add-on search in #0523 on Pi3+ with stock Estuary, and it seems to be working OK for me - no lockup.

I confirm this. I have the same. Raspberry Pi 3.

I'm getting artefacts with latest build when watching livetv 1080i50 with my rpi3+. Tvh and le are on the same rpi.
Previous builds only had issues when watching livetv + download in background.
Now livetv is enough.

If this is a new problem then identifying the first build with the issue is important.

I did have the same problems but I have now 2 pi´s one for Kodi one for tvheadend. thats the better solution. booth is sometimes to much.

@all please try, like I did to reinstall from scratch LE8.3.5 and the update to the latest build. this solved some of my older Problems mysteriously.
