Hello
I have Kodi running on two Sony Smart TVs (Android) for a couple of years without issues, I play videos over SMB without any hitch.
However, ever since Kodi updated to version 19 this issue has come up for a few months now. Videos abruptly stops and I am sent back to the Kodi library I was at and I can resume were the video stopped, it happens randomly around every 5 to 10 minutes.
To elaborate, one Sony TV does not have this issue and is connected to the router by ethernet cable directly due to its close proximity to the main router.
The second Sony TV which is further, is connected over WiFi thru a second router (the 2nd router is connected by cable to the main router) that acts like an extender of sorts.
I have searched everywhere for a solution and I couldn't find what the real issue is or what the fix is.
I do suspect that this due to Kodi 19 having connectivity issues over WiFi, probably.
Please find below log that was uploaded from Smart TV by using the Log Upload addon from the Kodi respository.
To reduce the search time from the log for you guys, the video first stops at 18.28, resumes play at 18.36 and stops again at 18.43
Please note that I am not able to understand the log and I can easily get lost as I am not sure what to look for.
Any solution will be welcomed.
