Kodi random restarts every 12 hours or so.
Edit: Not really solved but it appears to be specific to this unit so i'm marking it as solved.
Ok so this is a new one. I'm on the latest stable version and did a apt update + upgrade 2 days ago... There were about 5 things that were upgraded one of them a "firmware" package (?). All went fine, no problems etc etc... and i did a reboot (was not necessary but i just like to do it every time i update since i don't do it often). OS boots up fine, Kodi start and everything appears fine.... But a few hour later, i noticed Kodi restarted (just Kodi, not the OS)... No big deal right? Noup, now Kodi restarts about every 12 hour or so :/. Either during idle time (this Pi runs 24/7 just for Xbian with Kodi, nothing else) or just in the middle of playing a movie, music, etc. This new issue is just annoying because of the random crash during play. And it was not there before the last APT upgrade. In the Log i noticed this that is repeating non stop (it was not there before and i have no idea what is causing it): Terminal 2020-10-14 18:55:40.328 T:2657087712 ERROR: CCurlFile::Open failed with code 0 for http://127.0.0.1:80/web/currenttime: Also i did not install any new Addons and there aren't any updates for the ones i have.

RE: Kodi random restarts every 12 hours or so.
Update;
The error in the Kodi.log Terminal 2020-10-14 18:55:40.328 T:2657087712 ERROR: CCurlFile::Open failed with code 0 for http://127.0.0.1:80/web/currenttime:~ was caused by a PVR addon that somehow became active (???)... I suspect an update? Anyway i disabled it last night and so far that error as not appeared in the Log file. Meanwhile i'm waiting to see of Kodi restarts again... I will update this thread. [/term] :) :) |

Absolutely no idea
It can only be one of the packages that have been updated, and since it is not known which packages have been updated from which version to the current one, debugging is very difficult |

I Google it but did not found anything relevant about this package. The OS runs perfectly AFAIK. Its only KODI that random restarts (last time was running for 4 days then restarted in the middle of playing a file.... totally random and yes it also happened during playback of mp3 and IPTV streams.) Also when i run apt-get -f : Terminal sudo apt-get install -f Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. No errors (?). Any ideas? Thanks you. :) :) |

Perhaps power issues?

I use a 3.5A psu, and i did not notice any crashes or errors besides this Kodi behaviour... I can test with another psu. Isn't there any way to log Kodi behaviour like a crash report? Thanks. :) :) |

RE: Kodi random restarts every 12 hours or so.
Do you use Samba shares?
For me it looks like this is causing the issue (smbc_read ....) |

Yes i do have several shares in my LAN, but i did not change any configuration before this started to happen. Is there a way to debug if this is related to Samba shares? This random restart also occurs during iptv streaming and when the Kodi is just idle.... :) :) |

Sometimes things break without any intervention... But no other machine in my LAN had any problems with the shares, and since it occurred after that apt upgrade i guess it is a problem on the Pi (smb client maybe?). I will Google how to debug samba shares problems. I will post updates here. Thanks anyway . :) :) |
