He was talking diagnosis.

Either Kodi's library or the file metadata is at fault, you should probably rebuild your kodi library using nfos.

Between the server, livetv and plugins, there's always something new to watch.

I would REALLY like to avoid going through all that hassle just to be lazy and watch TV.

I absolutely had a network issue, where files over the network would just stop reading, and it would skip to the next file. This behavior only happened when my NAS device was hosting the media with it's default configurations. I did some searching online and other people had the similar performance problems with the NAS device, so I adjusted the settings as they suggested and the problem went away.
I figured this out because I happen to have a complete backup of the NAS device on a USB harddrive... switching to the USB harddrive completely resolved the issue. So i knew it was something with my network.

@nickr i'm guessing you don't understand the issue...
If you have media that is improperly encoded with inaccurate runtimes, what magic should PseudoTV use to find the actual runtime?
Before you answer "Scraping" with Kodi, You should understand that 99% of the time this data is inaccurate. The runtimes do not account for commercials removed. So a 30min tv show, probl. has 24min of runtime.
I've been using and coding PseudoTV for a really long time... trust me when I say this issue only appears to users that either burned their own copies and failed to pay attention to metadata. Or some garbage illegal download that is incomplete or poorly encoded.
It's not a common issue... and the only fix is for the affected user to clean and maintain a healthier collection of media! no magic on my end...
Currently PTVL tries to read metadata duration first, and if that fails it uses Kodis library...
