Sure thing!
I'd also like to start some discussions on hardware - I'm a network admin and hardware guy, so I have been experimenting with gear and had some great success, and great failures too. I'd like to swap notes with the community on setups. I'll put together some quality posts here in the next few weeks.

NAS software is usually junky, so you will have to research your own device, and find out if there are similar features to disable.

PTVL is still doing this. I still can't capture a debug log because it doesn't happen with debugging enabled. It still slows my system to a crawl with debugging enabled. Removing debug text STILL doesn't work. All videos STILL play completely uninterrupted using ANYTHING except PTVL. VLC plays them, Kodi plays them, even windows media player works.
I don't know what to do, I know it kinda useless without a log but come on. Is there seriously NOBODY on the entire internet who has ever had this problem? It's not duration issues seriously I've tested that out 100 times. PTVL is the ONLY instance where random videos cut off early. This tells me it's PTVL's fault.
Short of offering money out of my pocket, is anyone willing to help?

Have you tried maybe reencoding one of the videos that cuts off within PTVL? If the same video files are cutting off and not random files, that tells me that there is something wrong with your files.

If it is happening 30 seconds into the video, then it surely can't be related to the duration set in the database, unless the database is wildly wrong for that file (and that is something you will have to check on your own system of course).
Of course you don't have to use PTVL to use kodi. Nice add-on, but kodi is perfectly functional without it.

Me too, but he says when he enables debug logging, the problem goes away.
EDIT: perhaps a non debug log might show some light.
