Hello milhouse,

thank you for your reply - glad to hear that it seems to be a common behaviour on Kodi and no bad configuration on my device...

Quote from milhouse

The PVR errors in your log ("Misplaced [") are most likely skin bugs and should be reported to the skin maintainer.

When entering the video library the second time, there's no more PVR error. No chance that that skin error causes the delay?

Code

09:36:09.562 T:1944936448   DEBUG: OnKey: return (0xf00d) pressed, action is Select
09:36:09.563 T:1944936448   DEBUG: Activating window ID: 10025

09:36:10.759 T:1722979232   DEBUG: Thread BackgroundLoader 1722979232 terminating

Query time is nearly the same on inital load or subsequent load:

09:33:52.016 T:1944936448 DEBUG: RunQuery took 132 ms for 435 items query: select * from movie_view

09:36:09.840 T:1944936448 DEBUG: RunQuery took 125 ms for 435 items query: select * from movie_view

So the only solution will be waiting ...

Best regards

Hello,

I'm using LE 8.2.4 on a Raspberry Pi v1, with a 32GB Class10 SD-Card. Compared to a Pi v3 the system runs a little slower,

but still ok for occasionally use.

BUT:

After booting the system the first start of the (video) library is very slow. That means after pressing the menu button,

about 10 seconds nothing visibly happens, then the new window opens including all library entries.

Currently I am using Amber Skin, but the delay is identical on every other skin, even on default. The system is freshly installed,

just all unneccesary services (Updates, SAMBA, SSH, AirPlay, etc.) deactivated and the only addon, which I installed is keymap editor

and Amber skin.

After the library has beed entered the first time, on next opening there is no more uncommon delay any more - so just on first

start after booting.

I tried the same configuration on a Pi v3, due to the extended CPU power the delay on first start is just a couple of seconds,

but still a moment slower than on futher use. So maybe there could be an issue in my personal configuration...?

For better solution I activated error loging, the full file ist attached.

In my opinion the following lines should include the problem:

Sorry, I do not understand the code so far - but it seems to be a error by the PVR module...?

I do not use any PVR services on this device.

Thank you all for trying to help my issue

Best regards
