zyyyper,
Exactly the same problem here.
on TV goto settings apps and find Kodi, uninstall.
Follow directions on how to install without using GooglePlaystore.
This involves installing Chrome by logging into your googleaccount on a PC and install the Chrome app on tv that way.
Then open Chrome on TV and go to kodi.tv downloads and downlad Jarvis 16.1 there and then install.
After that, you need to completely re-configure everything ... like ... server logins, video and audio settings and libraries and plugins ...
Cheers and happy Kodi'ing

Hi I also have a Sony Android TV and have had nothing but problems after the app automatically updated to Kodi 17.
I am seeing slower video playback and most annoying of all MKV files only show black screen, and when you pause the playback it shows a valid screen from the movie at the time that it was paused. Very strange.
After struggling with this I think I am just going to uninstall and manually install the older version.

All I can say is WTF. I so darn impressed with what I could do with my new Sony 55 android that I cut the cable. Now late Saturday night, all of a sudden, out of the blue, without my input......my Sony is now running Krypton. It's doing nothing, and going nowhere.
What the heck happened, and please tell a 65 year old goof how the heck do I get back to Jarvis. It took me a good month to tune up the adding just to my liking. Please remember not all Kodi users are patient enough to go through the dozen steps to get just one addon working.
Please tell me this is NOT going to happen to my Minix Neo 8 the next time I turn it on.

and yet, he didn't even say what's the problem. If one is familiar with limitations of ANY TV out there, the only thing that doesn't work is DTS passthrough and 640kbps AC3. And that can be easily kinda solved with transcoding. And that didn't work in v16 also but it was also kinda solved in a same way that is still available in v17 shitty build.
Apart from different (IMO way better) skin, v17 is the same as v16 on a SONY TV.
