I would like, however, to find a way to set the content of the sources added without manually making the change through the GUI.

Unfortunately, Kodi does not support magic wands.

And usually adding/changing sources is a one-time-thing only.

So how often are you planning to make source changes?

When creating a new Kodi client, simply copy the relevant files from the Kodi source machine to the new client, either via USB or a network connection.

Should your Kodi device work okay via path substitution, then a simple reboot should be enough to pick up changes in the source.xml file.

Kodi cannot update the sources.xml internally once it has booted/started.

If there is a more straight forward way of dumping the old library and scanning and importing a new one I'd love to here about that too.

The simplest trick is to 'drop' or rename the current video database in MySQL, and restart Kodi to create a fresh video database. Then you'll need to pick the content setting again for your video source(s), and you can start rescraping your video collection.

If your source paths have changed too, deleting the Texture13.db file as well as the Thumbnails cache folder is recommended.

Interesting.

All that just having LibreELEC idling? Or playing the same video with every test?

10+ degrees Celsius difference with just a different USB cable is quite weird to me.

I've changed the topic title because the word 'app' has a different meaning.

A crash just like that on your RPi? Could be a micro-sd problem. Try a different one.

Also, the 9.1.501 (beta) version is also available.

If it happens that suddenly, then perhaps we shouldn't rule hardware failure... I hope I'm wrong.

Calling someone else's work 'garbage' simply because you are unable to work with it shows the lack of your computer software skills oh so well.

"I want a real OS"... Right. Apparently you only understand how to operate your computer with a mouse. Try Raspbian on your RPi if you want to use your mouse.

If you have requirements beyond the Kodi mediaplayer client, then LibreELEC is simply not the software for you. With a bit of homework you would have known that up front. When your subsequent response is only to use foul language towards Team LibreELEC, I can only conclude that the amount of brain cells in your head can simply not comprehend the art software application that after some 15 years for development has tens of millions of users worldwide. We are all not equally equipped.

Go and be happy with your bloated phone-home PC and its Internet Explorer.

but on my older tv I get no video at all.

That's not much information to work with, is it?

More info, please. TV specs, brand etc...

Changing skins should have no bearing on a library whatsoever. They are not connected in any way.

Are you using different profiles?

Where are your media files stored?

Are you using a MySQL library or the local libraries only?

And .. why do you split your media files into DVD and Bluray folders?

For Kodi you can read the tutorial: Quick start guide - Official Kodi Wiki

By default, there is no web browser available in LibreELEC (yet).

Kodi was not designed to be used with a mouse, but with a TV or 'box' remote.

What exactly do you mean by "these boxes? Please note that Kodi or LibreELEC do not sell 'boxes'.

Whatever advertisements of Kodi 'boxes' you see, they are likely to be filled with illegal add-ons, for which there is no support on this forum or the official Kodi forum.

It constantly freezes, crashes, random times.

Try running a clean setup without any heavy skins installed.

If you still have freezes, provide a full debug kodi file.

Try a different cable, different UTP slot.

Is the DHCP pool full on the HP server?

Any firewalls active?

Well, you can ...

This is not a forum for movie download advertisements.

I didn't even know NOOBs was a version of LE

It is not. NOOBS is a standalone boot application for the Raspberry Pi, and LibreELEC has a installer version for that boot tool.
