black screen on playback - downtownreesy - 2019-11-21

Hello there,

I just upgraded to 18.5 from 17.6 on windows 10. I figured it was time to update my Kodi but am now having an issue when I select a video on my HDD to view, the screen goes black and unresponsive.

I am unable to close Kodi through task manager or access any other program while kodi is frozen. The only thing that seems to work is to log out of windows via task manager and log back in. When I select another video the same thing happens. I'm not sure why this is happening as i had no issues before. HELP!

Here is my log: https://pastebin.com/yHTB4RiJ
