Kodi Libreelec Gui

I am a real noobie with both Kodi Jarvis and Libreelec. I bought the basic Chromebox, installed Libreelec and Kodi but was surprised that I didn't have that same GUI that I had with Kodi on either my Mac or PC. I use the Chromebox in my home theater...

ATV4 – Remote Sucks!

Hey gang! Just joined because I got an Apple TV 4th gen yesterday and was messing around with it last night. Yes, it has Kodi installed. Anyway, the remote they give you with the box is ridiculous. It's very sensitive and slow and I was wondering if an...

Video playing is stopped

Hello everybody!

I have a video stopping problem on my Kodi 17 Krypton (Windows Store version).
I have an Intel Nuc with 4Gb of RAM (2Gb free at any time), up to date Windows 10. I also have a NAS Dlink DNS-320L with a Gbps cable connection. NUC is in Wi-fi.
I am reading files using smb (NAS “TV Shows” and “Movies” directories are mounted on my Windows, and Kodi reads M: and S: network connections)
I have different video formats, often .mkv, H265 encoded (but the problem is also present on avi…). I have SD, 720p, 1080p.

My problem is that when reading a video, Kodi often (random time, from 1 to 30 minutes ) freezes for 1 or 2 seconds then stops the playback and comes back to the video list, with cursor on the played video, that I have to relaunch.
I have a log example here : https://1drv.ms/t/s!AhDqW3kFJLcTqpwLypRKWoNg5-tpSw

Thinking that it could be a cache problem, I created an advancedsettings.xml file under Kodi userdata, containing specific cache parameters for Kodi 17 :

Code:
<cache>
<memorysize>139460608</memorysize>  
<buffermode>0</buffermode>  
<readfactor>4.0</readfactor>
</cache>
It seems to work a little better, but I still have the video playback stopped problem…

Sometimes I even can’t launch the content, it crashes 2 seconds after the launch.
Here are the logs :
https://1drv.ms/u/s!AhDqW3kFJLcTqpwM-uq-eZ7glxrc3Q

I found a few errors like Line 277: 23:59:11 T:2820 ERROR: Got MSGQ_ABORT or MSGO_IS_ERROR return true

I looked for this error in Google but I didn't found any solution...

Thanks for your help!

PS : I also have a Kodi 16.1 on this NUC, which is working fine, with the same NAS and same files.
