I played this file across the CIFS/NAS share. It played fine for about 2 minutes, then locked up Kodi so hard, that I couldn't stop it. Upon hitting the 'HOME' button on the remote, I was unable to make YouTube video play. I tried to play Amazon Prime video, but it showed the kodi screen and then eventually seemed to reset the video to allow an amazon video to play.
I also took the liberty of making a brief video recording on my phone of what the issues actually look like :

I returned to Kodi and played the video again from the beginning. Hard to tell if the voices and the video are synced due to the broadcaster using internet video and not showing the live hosts faces while they talked (i found this odd). 2:24 video freeze 2:30 audio freeze. Timer continued past the end of the 3:24 of available video until i stopped it at 4:00 minutes. Then, it locked up again and I played Amazon Video to reset it.
I suppose i should get a debug log on this this but I recently did a fresh install of 18.6 (because I couldn't force a downgrade to 18.6 from 18.7 with ADB.. donno why). I'll work on this tomorrow.
Have Processing: Allow hardware accelearation - MediaCodec (Surface) and MediaCodec enabled.
Maybe a debug log and further analysis tomorrow.
Many thanks, appreciate your help - based on some limited testing yesterday I can play these files without hardware acceleration on the Firestick 4K and it did not crash but the cpu cores all go to 100% and the playback is very choppy
