Official way to stop and restart kodi without reboot?
Hi,
I am currently wondering, if there is an "official" way to stop and restart kodi without having to reboot. The reason why I am doing this is because CEC still gives me a headache and I usually use "kill -s HUP <some kodi pid>" to let it automatically restart itself. However I just had the problem for the second time today that kodi would hang in a loop trying to restart itself and obviously sudo -u xbian -g xbian -s /usr/local/lib/kodi/kodi.bin --standalone -fs --lircdev /run/lirc/lircd does not work 100% when run from a remote terminal. So is there ANY way to dot it? Thanks in advance! |

Any hints what I could look for to see what is causing that? I hate to restart when my transmission is just running that good ;-) |

Sounds like you have other major issues as stopping and starting XBMC/Kodi should work without trouble.
Have you tried another power source for you Pi ? You could also up the log level to debug in: XBMC/Kodi --> Settings --> System --> Debugging There are only 10 types of people in the world: those who understand binary, and those who don't |

Yeah, thanks but no the power is good since months. And switching on debug level is hard when Kodi shows up for at best some milliseconds ;-) Where can it be switched on WITHOUT GUI (where is the setting stored)?

Well, I am not sure if the warning and the error in the kodi.log has anything in common with the repeating restarts, but they are at the moment the only possible causes I can see, so here it is:

Now XBian does the restart-loop just after a fresh reboot :-(

Try.....
Terminal sudo service xbmc stop sudo service xbmc start Things are not always what you would expect them to be! |

Once again
Xbian uses Upstart so, correct commands are: Terminal sudo stop xbmc sudo start xbmc @Skywatch Seems you have forgotten this again |

Terminal sudo stop kodi sudo start kodi Please read before you post How to post a log file If you liked my help, click on "Thanks" to show your appreciation.

I asked this a while back Iridium and was informed it will remain as xbmc.
Seems to go against the times and will confuse noobs who never knew what xbmc was and only want the new kodi.... |
