I’m not sure if this is the correct place to post this, so please move it if it’s not.
After installing Kodi 17.1 stable, Kodi started crashing on exit. I narrowed it down to the controller power off function that is normally found in System settings > Input was missing.
I was able to implement a workaround by manually going into my “guisettings.xml” and changing “<controllerpoweroff default=”true”>true</controllerpoweroff>” to “false”.
Edit: I should probably have mentioned that I tried the latest non-debug nightly as well: KodiSetup-20170320-fc1619b118-Krypton.exe
