For Kodi Music/Video problem:

If i upgrade an existing Kodi installation from 18.9 to 19.3 from Microsoft Store:
- All existing video in my library are not playing.
- If i play the sames videos using DLNA (upnp) which doesnt use Kodi Database to read last play times, personal infos, etc. Everythings is playing fine. No 4k video crashes.

If i uninstall Kodi and reinstall 19.3 clean from scratch from Microsoft Store:
- All videos and music i add in my new library are playing fine
- No 4k video crashes
- Default tone mapping for HDR video is working fine (colors are fine)
- Interface is now at 4k
- I'm now able to use Milkdrop2 visualizations at 4k without crashes
- Playing from Secured SMB Shares is working fine

----------------------
For Kodi Add-ons problem:
I just tried the exact same Kodi UWP 19.3 release (msix extracted directly from Microsoft Store) in Dev Mode as App.
No problem with add-ons.

I remember i tested the same add-ons with Kodi 19.1 in Dev mode and it worked too.

I saw this on Microsoft Store.
It's strange..:

My Python error for problematic add-ons is the same as other published logs in Kodi Xbox forum:

Even with a clean 19.3 Microsoft Store Install, i have the Python error when i try to use an add-on downloaded and installed from Kodi interface.
I'm able to download and install them but I'm not able to use them.

Conclusion

On my side, I'm happy with this Kodi release
I'm NOW able to play all my videos and music without problem.
It was not the case with Kodi 18.9.

For sure, i can provide help for Kodi addons problem in next weeks if necessary.
Its a problem that affect a lot of users.
The big problem here.. i'm NOT able to reproduce the problem with the same code running in Dev mode..
How can we provide a public fix if we are not able to test it first?

You can compile and upload kodi to the ms store and set to private audience and test it while in retail mode

Thx for your technical infos! Good idea!

I don't have any problem if someone fix it behind scenes. I will be happy!
I have an idea on how we can perhaps fix this issue.
I will give it a try.
