start with sharing the full debug log that goes with the crash

I'm "happy" I'm not the only one seeing this issue. I'm experiencing these crashes since months on five different devices (generic Intel, Raspberry Pi3, vero 4k), with LibreELEC and with OSMC.

Thread on kodi.tv and crashlog.

Even see this when I only boot a system and let it on its own.

You are right here it is. Another crash with the same seg fault again

Thanks for the help

8.2.3 didn't help much

Yes, I'm also seeing it with 8.2.3. Maybe you could bring this to the kodi forum as it is not a libreELEC specific problem. I also got it with OSMC when I was still using it. It is a very nasty issue as I still do not understand what is triggering it (maybe some race in kodi code or one of the libraries used). I tried a lot of things such as using different skins, removing all unneeded addons, but did not succeed getting rid of these (almost) daily crashes.

What puzzles me most: There are so many kodi/libreELEC users and it seems nobody else is affected by this problem. In fact you are the only one besides me I'm aware of. This is why I'm so glad I'm no longer alone, as the kodi people probably must assume it is me who is doing something wrong, which is quite understandable. Of course chances are others are also affected but do not notice it because they are not checking their logfiles and the crashes seem to happen only when the system is idle. I only know it is not defective hardware as it happens on several different devices even with different architectures.

Anyone having crash issues on Odroid C2, the first thing to look at is to see if you have a power source enough to run Odroid. Make sure it is has at least 2A output. I was using a power source with 5.2V - 1.35A output and had a lot of issues with buffering and it kept crashing, freezing. Changing the power source with a 5V - 4A kodi is much more responsive and no crashes at all. Hope this helps some of you.
