Hi all,

You will need to provide a debug log. The instructions are in my signature. Use the Basic method. Once you have enabled debugging in Settings>System Settings>Logging, restart Kodi then replicate the problem. In your case, try to play the movie. Once done upload to pastebin and link back here. Note: The entire debug log is required. Partial logs may be ignored.

Edit Reason: Something to do with controls or timeshift
)
This is absurd, but I'm having the opposite problem! On Windows with Kodi 17.6, whenever I have Live TV playing, as soon as the controls appear below the video (by hovering the mouse, for instance, or just calling the interface from the keyboard), the video and controls then grind to a halt to the point where Kodi gets close to freezing. Then, if I just let the controls auto hide again, the Live TV picks back up and plays perfectly fine again. Essentially, I have to use the keyboard 'x' to stop the video, because it becomes very difficult to move the mouse to the stop button so that I can stop the video so that it will stop grinding to a halt. I've noticed that this problem is only with Live TV thus far. If it's a recorded TV program, or an MKV video, for example, I don't have this problem with the controls freezing/locking up Kodi. Furthermore, this problem did not occur back in Kodi 16.0 (I've just tested it to double check). I've tried messing with all the video settings in Kodi that I can find, but, so far, nothing has solved it. Also, I'm not having this problem on Android, only on Windows. Are there any settings relevant to the Live TV playback controls or timeshift settings that might account for this?
