    Hi all,
    My first post. I've used a pi3 as my home media player since it was first released. I was using osmc before. Decided I was going to try openelec then came across libreelec. So all good. My external USB 1TB SSD started acting up. I couldn't copy files into folders like I normally would remotely from my ubuntu lappy. I decided it must be time to reformat the drive and maybe changing the pi OS created some issue. Formatted the drive and copied everything back and all seemed to function fine from my laptop. Now any playing of any of my video files on that external drive is pretty unstable. Stuttering and out of sync audio and video freezes. This is now the case with any OS I use as I tried osmc again and it acted exactly the same with the same files. It stuttered and locked up at the exact same points on the various files I tried. I tried reseatting all the plugs and connections, but nothing has helped. Does this seem like a hardware failure?
