Thing that has been bothering me since start of using Kodi from version 16 and is constantly limiting my use of Kodi for regular music playback is that Rpi3 LibreElec Kodi has a tendency to reboot randomly while playing back MP3-files and by random meaning that the playback may last continuously from few minutes, one song maybe, to over whole night even, but most usually it's more than an hour, and say less than six.
All video playback seems to work pretty flawless, no stalls, no spontaneous reboots, I've played back Youtube video or kept EuroSport Player on for well over 8 hours in a row many times without any reboot issues, but plain listening to local MP3 files causes the issue frequently (if the playback just gets to that point, without being stopped manually first). Also playing back various kinds of video files from local sources hasn't shown such symptoms at all.
A general question, is it possible that MP3 playback simply lacks enough error tolerance, or may it be flawed by nature otherwise? I've played the very same files on stand alone MP3 players, phones and Windows computers, but RPi Kodi seems to be the only device that constantly fails with the playback. For output I'm using analog audio, since my first suspect for audio playback issues back in the day was bluetooth, but no difference between output devices.
My current version of Kodi is 17.5 and LibreElec 8.2.0.1 on Rpi3, like said, the reboot issue doesn't seem to have relation to the Kodi or LibreElec versions at all, it's been the same since my first Kodi version 16.
Sorry no LOG here yet and before posting it, could somebody brief me about how to share a LOG securely, aka without exposing too much private information, filenames, folder paths, network names, IPs, MAC-addresses, etc.?
