Hello,

I start using libreelec beacause my cubox i-2 was flicking when I was playing a film.

I start to use Libreelec and when I m playing a film everything is ok.

My trouble is when I stop playing a film the screen become blank the cpu usage is 100%.

I read my film on an old synology (DS 408) via an ethernet link

i have tried several version of libreelec even the last 8.1.2 with kodi 17.4

the last time i stop a film the last image stay on the screen , the cpu was at 100%

I can't use my cubox , I can't restart my cubox each time I watch a film

do you have any idea ?

First try playing a file from a local filesystem to eliminate network.

I didn't see anything special on 8.1.2 from previous versions.

Try this image: LibreELEC-imx6.arm-8.0.2-3.14-sr.img.gz

I had the same issue on my Cubox-i4pro, just started using LibreELEC after years on OpenELEC. In the end I figured out that switching the refresh rate is probably causing it to hang.

bigbab, try disabling Settings / Player / Videos / Adjust display refresh.

vpeter, what's the difference in your build? Guess it's using a different kernel.

Yes, 3.14 instead of 4.4. It helps sometimes with some issues.
