Ok, this is the best I can do...

This does not entirely fix the shield freezing BUT it should not crash or freeze anymore. 

I have reverted back the timeout to main kodi values because as we noticed there's no difference. 

What happens now is, if Kodi would freeze or not be able to play the content, it will just stop. 
When this happens, you are able to press play again and it should play without any issues.

You can choose whatever settings you like

I believe someone might be able to compile a 32bits version since the code is public. 
My build enviroment is filled with the 64bits version.

Let me know if this works.
