Yeah. Next Aired works well for my widget. The Addon itself is way glitchy. Looks good, but pushing left across the menu freezes it.
My issue is during actual video playback. I'm now experiencing it a bit on my Chromebox as well. It seems like this is only a new issue since updating from Isengard to Jarvis.

As the log only plays HEVC 1080p which is too much for the chromebox ... one cannot help.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

Hmm...
I checked...and...it appears it may be the HEVC vids that are freezing.
I suppose I never really noticed as I only have a few that are 1080p. Odd that I can actually watch dozens on my Chromebox and my far inferior laptop with Openelec without issues. It just happens once in a while and generally one 1 video that is exactly the same as the rest in the series. How peculiar.
So, does a Chromebox normally freeze or not play 1080p HEVC? Maybe I should stay clear from encoding that way. Wish I knew that before I did a whole series. I'm glad it's at least operating.
Maybe in the next Chromebox.

Alternately, would the Core i3 Chromebox play it fine?
Or...if I change it to Software decode?
My junky old laptop has a Pentium P6200, which I figured would be trash since it's a 9 year old laptop, and it plays everything I throw at it.
