Nightly video playback broken on RPi

Hi

I upgraded to the latest nightly (December,16) from an older nightly (December,9)

The old build didn't have any issues.

What's happening is this. When try to play a video the sound comes out. But the image never comes on.

After a while Kodi crashes.

I tried to capture this behavior in the logs.

Please, let me know otherwise.

I was afraid something like that could happen. That Kodi weren't able to register what went wrong in the logs.

In the meantime, I downgraded to the nightly from December, 9. All the videos were playing just fine.

Then I put back the latest nightly available (December,16), and no matter which chose my local library I got only sound. The video never showed up. And after a couple of seconds, Kodi becomes unresponsive.

I'm gonna manually delete all logs. And try to upload some new logs.

I assure you guys. The issue is real. Something added after December, 9 is causing this issue.

I made a short video:

Here are the logs available after the crash.

I accessed those logs over SSH:

LibreELEC:~/.kodi/temp # pastekodi

LibreELEC:~/.kodi/temp # pastecrash

Hope it helps

I just went to confirm that this issue first appeared in the build LibreELEC-RPi2.arm-12.0-nightly-20231210-e521363.img.gz from December, 10.

Thanks HiassofT.

I'll keep an eye on this #8437 request on the next daily builds.

Until then I'll revert to the last working build from December, 9.

I'll let you guys know if something else occurs.

I installed the build from today (December, 19th) and I can confirm that the workaround worked.

I am able to play videos again without freezing Kodi.

Thank You HiassofT
