Hey guys,
I recently switched from Windows to Ubuntu using Kodi and for some time now I am facing freezes while watching movies/TV shows. When the freeze occurs, the image is still and the audio keeps looping until I hard reset the htpc (I assume that might be a Kernel Panic?). This has been happening for some days now.
For debug-purpose I just enabled the debug logger and started an episode of Family Guy (where I first encountered the problem) - will edit this post as soon as the problem occurs again. Here are my specs (as asked in the HOW-TO post thread ):
Software:
- Ubuntu 16.04 (updated 20/12/2016).
- Kodi Krypton Beta 7 (20/12/2016)
- Arctic Zephyr skin
Hardware:
- ASRock Q1900-ITX Mainboard
- Corsair CP-9020052-EU VS Series (ATX 2.3, 350 Watt)
- Kingston KHX1600C9D3B1/4G 4GB RAM
- SanDisk SSD 128GB Sata III 2,5 Zoll SSD (OS only)
Video:
- The videos I played back recently with the freezes occuring were x264 in .mkv containers. But it could not be traced back to a specific file as I watched some episodes several times and the freeze did not occur every time.
Terminal outputs:
Are there any known bugs regarding my constellation of Intel HW and Kodi? I was so happy after switching to Ubuntu... I really hope I will somehow manage to fix the issue and enjoy Kodi for the next decades. Just tell me what information is missing in case I forgot something. Will immediately provide that.
Thanks in advance.
