I just tried to duplicate, and had no issues (I'm also portable mode). You didn't turn on debugging in settings>system>logging.
Can't find window videoplaylists is the error it probably dies on.

I also have crash when playing music by going to playlist.
Steps to reproduce:
Start Kodi, go to music, go to genre (example:pop), context menu (add to playlist), go to next genre (example: rock).
Now, Kodi starts to play the playlist (several thousand songs).
If I try to go to left hand side menu item "go to playlist..." it will start to show the playlist and crash after 2..3 seconds.
It will do this every time if the playlist ist huge.
It will never crash on a small playlist (several hundred songs).
All of my songs are on SMB Networkshare in case this matters (caching/slow read speed/...?)
I have posted ticket & debug/crashlog in TRAC.
Note:
At least up to RC2, Kod would also crash going back to playlist since it was updating Weather Icons at that same time. This was due to "download weather maps" setting enabled.
Hower even without any weather plugin, the above mentioned bug with big playlists is still existing in RC3 on my system.

Yes, as @jjd says, that is a patched version of v17 RC3 that I believe will fix the crash that happens when you view current playlist with lots of songs in it. Please test and feedback soonest, so it can be included into the next release.

Yes, I can confirm playlist is now working even with 13020 songs added to it.
Thanks for fixing it !
