    Kodi hangs with black screen then it restarts itself and goes back to main screen.
    Any comments?

    Hahahahaha... :D

    Okay, then the thread stops here.
    Enjoy your sensitive 4K movies.

    Well... I don't know what you're thinking about, but I do believe that there is no valid reason to share all my private data publicly.

    Since when does a kodi.log file hold "all your personal/private data"? Does it give up your social security info or your credit card details?
    People may get to know the movies you like? As long as those do not contain any sick forms of "nature movies", who cares?

    But how do you suppose we are to solve your 'problem'? You only give us 2 pieces of a 100 pieces puzzle.
    Since we have no crystal ball or any tea leafs reading experience, there is not much we can do.

    If you feel you cannot share any other information, it all ends here.

    As far as private data goes... Giving your NAS a personal name is perhaps not the brightest idea. ;)

    And yes, viewing a 4K HEVC video on a Raspberry Pi will sadly be a too big a task for a 35 euro kid's toy.
    A Rpi can do upto 1080p pretty well, 4K is beyond its capabilities.

    Why?

    OK, thanks. Sad but true...
