I could get the system back to booting by mounting the USB stick on another machine via "mount -t btrfs -o recovery" once. It's weird nevertheless.

Hmmm, seems your Pi has a hardware problem, because that's absolutely not normal that such a lot of fs-errors happens

Can you rule out that you don't have a power problem?

Quote:Also something else on my Raspi seems strange:
When I htop for many minutes I can see that memory consumption is at below 250MB (which is fine) and CPU load continuously is between 5-10% on all four cores. Nevertheless htop shows a load average of more that 4 for all three values. This appears illogical to me, a value of 4 on a four core machine would mean continuous full CPU load! Also when playing back recorded video from DVB-S I often see the temperature warning flashing in the upper rigth corner despite the fact that the CPU has an additional heat spreader attached, I have licenses for VC1 and MPEG-2 video codecs installed and "vcgencmd codec_enabled" shows these licenses are indeed active. Unfortunately I don't precisely remember when this started but it was around the time when Kodi got the Update to Leia.

Which kernel version are you running?

Do you have OMX acceleration enabled?

What's the codec of your recorded DVB-S streams?

The high load, does that happen while playing video or always?
If latter one, sounds like this issue

Quote:As the Raspi 4 was released just these days and if the probs on my Raspi 3 persist I would consider wating till there is a Raspian release that supports the 64 bit mode of the Cortex A-72. All in all disctinctly more computing power, 4k 10 bit HEVC video, new supported video codecs, etc. should make a nice media center, though this Raspi might need some active cooling...

Yep, but unfortunately ATM, there is no software support for all those new features. It will take some time (maybe in Kodi v19) until all those features are supported.

Btw, it is no 64bit Raspbian version planned so far
