[Odroid C2] Crash when trying to play music

  • I'm running too the 7.90.009, on my Odroid-C2, and I've got one serious issue : I can't play any music anymore.
    When I try to play music, Kodi crashes, no matter where is stored the mp3 files.
    I tried from my NAS, and directly from the music folder, and it had the same behavior.

    It plays the song for about 1s, and then cut. From there Kodi's UI stops responding...
    What's weirder is that there's no traces whatsoever in kodi.log...

    I experienced this misbehavios since 15 days (auto update gone wrong ?) but I re-updated it, and I got the same problem.
    I also tried with the sound outputting via HDMI, and the behavior was the same (I normally have DAC).
    I have no problems to play a Movie or a TVShow, it's only with Music..

    To conclude : the problem doesn't come from the song itself, nor the output chosen. From Kodi itself, then ?

    And if I right-click on a song, the "Play" option is replaced with "Play with..." and I got to choose between "PAPlayer (default)" or "VideoPlayer".
    Both lead to the same crash.

    The only way is then to stop & start kodi via SSH (systemctl).

    Does anybody experience this thing ?

    Thanks for reading me this far !

  • Here's the log file : AFEK

    My first guess is that it's relates to the plugin WavForHue...

    Yep, I've heard about those memory leaks... Hope it'll be fixed ;)

    It was it indeed ^^

    I was unable to uninstall it on the GUI, so I went the hard way :

    Code
    # rm -rf /storage/.kodi/addons/visualization.wavforhue/

    And it solved the problem :)

    PS : Should I mark the thread as solved ?
