Hi there! Thanks for this very useful add-on!

I'm running XBMC 13.2 on Fire TV. It's normally very stable but XBMC crashes very often while streaming videos with gdrive. I've tried 0.3.3 and today 0.4.3. Same result - after 2-3 og 4 videos it crashes and I'll have to start XBMC again.

Any ideas why this is happening?

Is it running Android?

Yes

Do you see the problem with youtube as well?

Yes - just tested it

Which playback type are you using in settings?

Streaming

With Raspberry Pi, I had web streaming issues such as crashes randomly when streaming at random times during playback or crashing immediately after starting a video. It never crashed when playing back local or over samba. Working with developers for troubleshooting and it was deemed to be specific to HTTPS and was fixed. But it was particular to Raspberry Pi and any HTTPS stream (including youtube etc,) I haven't seen the problem in Raspberry Pi new 13.2 builds. What I learned was that it was a very complex issue and was the reason why I started caching files and playing back the cache files because, in that case, if you didn't stream within the XBMC lib itself, then the problem didn't occur. The Disk playback setting in 0.4.3 bypasses this. So if you try using this setting, it would indicate if your issue is related to streaming over HTTPS.

I've tested disk cache and memory cache with 0.4.3. With memory cache it still crashes. With disk cache on (local "sdcard" on the Fire TV) I haven't seen crashes but I've only tested a few times. Video starts ok but then the screen starts chopping. Perhaps after cache is empty.

Google streams only over HTTPS.

Any idea?
