From a couple of builds back, i think it started with 0907, subtitles while watching movies stay on the screen until the next subtitle line comes up.
For example I could be watching a film that has a couple of minutes silent, but will still display the last subtitle on screen all the time, till next line comes up.

I have the same behavior on Pi3 with 2 or 3 last builds with .srt subs, but only if I use OMX player. MMAL player works normal with same material.

That's interesting, I'm only using OMX at the moment, mmal get my pi3 so hot and I feel I get a better picture with OMX.
Strange that changing my skin seems to have sorted it, will try a few other films in a bit.

Edit:

Yer I still have the sub problem, its on 90% of what I play, guessing the other 10% could a different sub type.

The remote still works at this point, if I press the video button it goes to videos (behind the blue circles) but I can't play anything. I think it's related to my PS3 bluetooth remote as (I'm not sure why) on build 605, bluetooth didn't work and the problem didn't occur. I have the dim screensaver set to come on after 10 minutes to make the remote suspend, and it doesn't immediately happen when the screensaver kicks in, only after a longer amount of time.

Sorry the description is a bit vague, is anyone else having a similar problem?

Edit: Pi3 using built in bluetooth. I've not tried a full wipe yet, but can if it's expected to resolve the problem.

I would suggest trying a "clean" .kodi first to make sure this isn't an add-on issue:

Code:
systemctl stop kodi mv .kodi .kodi.bak sync; reboot

You may need to reconfigure your settings and add your movies, but don't add any add-ons. If the problem doesn't happen then it's likely to be caused by an add-on. A debug log (wiki) might shed some light.

Unfortunately, I'm still having this problem, even after a full wipe. Whenever I leave the system for more than a few hours, I come back to the blue spinning circle in the middle of the screen, with no way to use the system without rebooting.
I'm 99% sure the problem is related to my PS3 bluetooth remote, if i disable bluetooth, the problem goes away. I have the 'dim' screensaver set to 10 minutes which I believe makes the remote suspend, but the problem doesn't occur after 10 minutes, only after a couple of hours.
I can save hours of debug log if necessary but I guess it's going to be tricky to find the relevant entry, is there anything else I can do which might help?

I have to say that build #0909 until now I think the best, at least when it comes to TV / PVR. No stutter, no block noise, everything is perfect, it is fun to watch TV.
Thanks Kodi / LibreElec team for the hard work!

Kodi Crash Logs

This will need a PVR person to diagnose - does this happen every time you boot?

Most likely a failure to create the static devices, it fails every now and again but isn't fatal or anything to worry about (but we should fix it eventually).

No cannot make kodi crash on subsequent re-boots

Thought that these recent clean build/boot then immediate kodi crash may hold some useful info? compared to kodi crash logs when not sure at all what exactly doing to cause an infrequent kodi crash after varied hours of use of a nightly build?

And yes static device failures occurred with both first boot of these particular builds even if not related. (Your comment reminded me of message I could not recollect previously thanks Blush

)

Hmmm. Two suspicious things in log, one is CEC related and one is gpu resample related.

Can you try disabling both CEC and GPU resampling and see if problem recurs?
If you are happy things are good then enabled CEC and see if it is still okay.

Yes, they're useful, but they point to EPG database related crashes which are a new type of crash not seen before (or at least recently). If this started with #0908 then possibly PR10369?

Sorry I can not confirm that, 720p run well.
I use at deinterlacing "MMAL - Bob (half)".

Same here.
As far as I remember this was fixed in one of the earlier builds but that fix was later removed and never showed up again.

Hello all,

Sorry if it's already answered somewhere, but I'm not available to search it, regarding search engine minimum of 4 characters.

what about 4k ? Can we read those iso or Mkv files ?

Thank you Smile

I have no problem reading my 4K videos however the Raspberry Pi can only output 1080p so it's kind of a waste of bandwidth/storage to download the files. In addition the files have to be x264. The Pi doesn't have enough power to render x265/HEVC 4K video files.

I observed the same last night with the most recent built ... (srt-subtitles, standard skin)

I really need to be able to reproduce this, but so far no one has been able to provoke this from a recording - which doesn't make a lot of sense - omxplayer has no idea about the source of the video. It suggests the live tv backend does something different with timestamps in the live vs recorded cases.

Ideally find a recording that demonstrates the problem. If not then using mmal or improving TV signal strength is the best option.

@ popcornmix here is a recording.. there is a glitch @ 39 seconds if i play with omx after glitch audio is out of sync.. if i play with mmal after glitch audio and video are in sync

If you need anymore samples let me know i can pretty much repeat on demand by starting to record and shaking tv dish to loose signal..
