Kodi – ATV4 running slow

Hey there. First time posting.

I have Kodi installed on my ATV 4. It worked completely fine for a few weeks and I even tried a couple of different builds with no issue. Recently my kodi is slow to respond. It opens, and goes to the selections I make but takes forever to load. On top of that the videos are choppy as hell to say the least.

I thought it might be a network issue but all my other services on the ATV4 work fine; Hulu, Netflix, etc. picture quality, sound, all great. It’s only when I’m in kodi that it’s slow to respond. Everything else on ATV4 is working like a champ.

Symptoms:
Takes up to 2-5 mins to load selections; tv shows load okay, select mr. robot…takes 2-5 mins, series 2…takes 2-5 mins…once the episode is finally selected it buffers like crazy or skips and/or the audio and video get out of sync.

Troubleshooting:
I wiped the original build using fusion and did the same build…same issue
I wiped w fusion and connected to nemisis…same issue
I tried the noobs and nerds maint tool add-on and cleared cache and some other things…same issue

I don’t want to do a fresh side load of kodi due to the 7 day reinstall issue, I didn’t install it originally, someone else did the install.

This is driving me crazy…thoughts on what I might be missing or what I can do to speed kodis responsiveness up?
