Hulu channel freezes after approximately 30 seconds on KODI 21.2.0

  • Hi,

    I am utilizing a raspberry pi attempting to watch HULU. For the logfile I tried watching ESPN, FS1 and MOTORTREND. Each channel worked for approximately 30 seconds.

    Based on the logs and looking at the ESPN related errors I see the following:

    46704 2025-02-27 19:31:29.749 T:1259 info <general>: CVideoPlayerAudio::Process - stream stalled

    46705 2025-02-27 19:31:29.749 T:1220 debug <general>: Stream stalled, start buffering. Audio: 0 - Video: 2

    58338 2025-02-27 19:32:05.092 T:3639 debug <general>: Thread Timer 140733033803520 terminating

    58342 2025-02-27 19:32:05.094 T:1220 debug <general>: Stream stalled, start buffering. Audio: 0 - Video: 1

    58727 stopped

    **************I pruned the file but it was still too big so I compressed it. It is actually kodi.log.gz not kodi.log*****************************kodi.log

    Can I please get some assistance with troubleshooting?

    Thanks,

    Don't enable the component specific debug unless asked for it - it just makes the log so large it's very hard to read.

    But, the real answer is if you have an issue with a specific addon, then check out the addon's thread.

    where it does sound like there is a known issue "All live channels freeze after just a few seconds".
