I tried solution B but I'm still stuck on 17.4. I did:
1) "sudo apt-cache policy xbian-package-xbmc"
Giving:
Code:
xbian-package-xbmc:
Installed: 17.4-1504805281
Candidate: 17.4-1504805281
Version table:

2) "sudo apt-get install xbian-package-xbmc=17.3-1496271830"
To check the version I did
3) "grep Kodi .kodi/temp/kodi.log | head -3"

I can't believe that
Please show me output of
Terminal
dpkg-query -s xbian-package-xbmc | grep Version

Ok I stand corrected!
The video still doesn't play smoothly though, like it used to a week ago.

Which hardware do you have?
In another thread you wrote something about RPi 2, is this correct?
So I suppose you want to play HEVC video, and 1080p HEVC
never plays smoothly on RPi 2

Yes RPi 2.
Actually this is all 480p or standard definition. It was all running fine until last week when something must have updated. Ever since then both streamed and
local files are choppy/show lag.

Hmmm, that's weird
You could try reverting to a snapshot made before your issues begun

I think culprit found:
Please try to install an older version of
xbian-package-firmware
Updated my RPi1 and some files (TV episodes with 23.976 fps, all others are ok) are not playing smoothly now, because firmware reports strange fps value which TV does not support.
Maybe it helps
Or, if not: do you use OMX player (acceleration)? If yes, try to disable OMX and enable MMAL
Tried downgrade of xbian-package-firmware and an earlier snapshot but didn't work.
MMAL was already enabled, however strangely selecting OMX player (acceleration) has improved things.
Although the video is now playing smoothly, the youtube add-on has stopped playing videos as are some other add-ons.

You got a lot if errors like this:

Your network is ok?
