Why does xbmc freeze

As once you cancel it exit out of python and that file should be removable. I'm actually not able to cancel, that refresh in the video was me reloading the UI with a left stick.

It's connected with a stock 40 wire IDE cable but the same was happening when I swapped it for the 80 wire one. I haven't tried on a different drive yet as I don't any any at hand. I've been monitoring the Ethernet port of the Xbox from the router and it's transferring absolutely nothing during the freeze.

Recommend Discussions. URL Downloader freezing at random moments 65 Hello, It's borderline impossible for me to download any large file due to the downloader freezing the download at completely random intervals sometimes at the beginning, sometimes at the end.

Here is a clear and concise description of what the problem is: When network shares are mounted locally with a drive letter, Kodi seems to evaluate those somehow and freezes intermittently. When network shares are mounted locally with a drive letter, Kodi seems to evaluate those somehow and freezes intermittently This happens on startup and randomly several times while Kodi is running.

The more networkshares are mounted, the longer the freezes. Also, Kodi should not try to follow locally mounted shares, or any local paths for that matter, as long as the path is not declared explicitly in sources. Kodi chokes on locally mounted shares. This is not visible directly in the debug log but only indirectly through the pauses in it. In my case, I had six shares to local and VPN local network. The problem aggravated when I was away from the usual enviroment in another Wifi and the shares would not connect.

This let to Kodi becoming unresponsive for large periods of time. Even startup took around 30 secs. Hopefully devs will find a fix, the workaround is to not mount any network shares locally.

Created a fresh install of current Kodi Matrix nightly by removing any user folders. Started Kodi. Turned off sounds.

Turned on debug logging. Added a local source for 2 TV shows.
