Help needed understanding Stack Traces /Kodi crash ?

1st Official Post

    since some time I get crasher in LE watching TV (SAT).

    it starts some weeks ago in LE 9.2 and remains after upgrade to 9.2.1.

    it happens also in a clean LE 9.2.1 install plus backup restore.

    the crasher occurs with the following addon's installed:

    - tvheadend

    - system-tools

    - network-tools

    - service.kn.switchtimer

    - WDR Rockpalast

    - ZDF mediathek 2016

    - mediathekview

    hardware: see signature !


    while I'm completely screwed understanding the crash log esp. regarding the questions:

    a) is it kodi itsself / alone ? or

    b) is it kodi in combination with my AddOn's ? or

    c) something other

    1. Question:

    Is anybody here who could give me a pointer where to look at ?


    Yesterday, I installed LE 9.2.1 from the scratch.

    I did NO restore from my backup => complete new config. by hand

    only the first 4 Addon's were installed

    for the first run/use: NO crasher so far.

    2. Question:

    so it looks like one of my addional AddOn's runs wild, but which one ?

    Generally a kodi.log will give the most information:

    Please provide a full debug log.

    How to post a log (wiki)

    1. Enable debugging in Settings>System Settings>Logging
    2. Restart Kodi
    3. Replicate the problem
    4. Generate a log URL (do not post/upload logs to the forum)

    use "Settings > LibreELEC > System > Paste system logs" or run "pastekodi" over SSH, then post the URL link

    Otherwise - start from a "new" image and install your add-ons one at a time.

    service.kn.switchtimer is an unknown - so look here first.

    THX for response !

    I'm currently in an testing/replicating mode:

    as said LE is scratch installed/configured (no backup restore) and addon's with care only.

    I'm just waiting for an crash.

    service.kn.switchtimer is in the org. LE-AddOn-Repo. The switch for "unknown sources" in addon settings is still off thereby !

    while I'm here:

    where to place an RFC regarding "dual boot" for LE ?
