i have the same issue
What I do now is suss what the source frame rate is, alt-tab back to the Finder and change the refresh rate to match., then alt-tab back to Kodi and resume to watch.
This way, when the file ends, Kodi does not kill the WindowServer process, but just takes me back to where I started as per normal. If I still try to quit Kodi from here though, Kodi still causes WindowServer to crash and kills all my network mounts too. Ouch…
To get around this, I don't quit Kodi via Cmd-Q, but rather alt-tab back the Finder once more, and then I have an AppleScript sitting next to Kodi in my Dock called KillKodi.app. It's basically a shell script to kill the Kodi process so not to bring down WindowServer when Kodi tries to switch res back to what it was before launching.
Such a PITA. Am about to try 18.4, but didn't see anything in the release notes vaguely similar and so am not expecting much.
Still, I like Kodi and the above is more complex to read than actually do.
