We have received reports from users of the Kodi Skin Arctic Zephyr: From Ashes which is currently installed on hundreds of thousands of devices were were in fact having issues with being able to run the skin on OSMC, OpenELEC, and LibreELEC. We worked with OSMC to resolve this issue which was featured in their latest update which was released on Sunday.
The problem, as described, is that the three platforms when running on a Raspberry Pi do not protect against invalid access when a skin has no mouse pointer.
We have provided a link to the discussion on OSMC as well as the GitHub fixed link. Since there seems to be no official way to contact LibreELEC which appears to be a fairly small project by comparison to OSMC so we will monitor this thread to see if LibreELEC also corrects the issue:
OSMC: discourse.osmc.tv/t/artic-zephyr-from-ashes-skin-sadface-on-reboot/17042/2
OSMC Github: github.com/popcornmix/xbmc/commit/ce88c8c05c67536577fe1c8bd3279f1a657c1c4e
Please note that is only effects the following platform as far as we are aware of:
- Raspberry Pi
- Kodi Jarvis
Without correcting the issue, users will experience crashes or unexpected bootloops.
We will monitor this topic.
