I’m running Arch Linux on my Raspberry Pi 3 and updated Kodi to version 17 this morning. I must say, I’m pretty comfortable with the new layout design. Although, when I try to playback any video, Kodi freezes instantly, then exits minutes later to give me a crash report. Below is an output of my most recent Kodi crash log:

Now I’m not really a video professional so I can’t personally make out anything of this. What I did notice is that this Kodi version was compiled for Linux kernel 4.7, and I’m still running 4.4. This may be a problem from my point of view.
