Turn off "Extract thumbnail and video information"
http://kodi.wiki/view/Settings/Videos

I'm going to disable this by default starting with the next build, although it will only apply to "fresh" settings. It's currently enabled by default, and causes all sorts of problems with Pi builds.

For anyone that's interested (and also so I can ref this post in future release notes):

Make RSS disabled by default:
