Hi all, Do you know how play automatically a video at startup? Thank you

Hello!

I've an old laptop with 2GB RAM. Kodi has been mostly fine for several versions since v13/v14 but the latest v17.1 is quite sluggish sometimes. I've seen this sluggishness occasionally on v16 as well.

A typical use case for me is to watch photos. When I open and exit a few folders with 500 to 1000 photos Kodi takes several seconds to respond to even a back command.

Question: is it just a case of too low resources or is there something I can tweak in the system to get better performance? Why does the kodi-bin process show more than 3GB VIRT?

There is good amount of RAM free soon after boot as per top:


After opening/exiting a few folders, RAM is almost full but swap is still not used:

I need help, I came across Kodi crashing everytime I select a movie or show. Even when I run Kodi on administrative. This does not happen on my laptop, Nvidia Shield, tablet or cell phone. Just on my desktop.

Allow user to select downmix levels of center, surround, and LFE channels (separately). And maybe an overall level if clipping can't be automatically avoided?
