Kodi 20 on rpi4 4GB max buffering
#1
Hello all,

I have IPTV and using simple iptv client on kodi to watch my iptv. My iptv provider offers m3u file format.

I have an issue, while it is playing it randomly freezes, interrupts. When I go to kodi log file I have this error:
Quote:2023-09-10 21:54:02.401 T:1241    error <general>: CDVDVideoCodecDRMPRIME::Reset - receive frame failed: Resource temporarily unavailable (-11)
Quote:2023-09-10 21:54:07.242 T:1241  warning <general>: OutputPicture - timeout waiting for buffer
2023-09-10 22:00:24.166 T:2641     info <general>: CVideoPlayerAudio:: Process - stream stalled


I also have various other errors but I can't show any example related to them.

I want to know that, is there anyway to increase buffer capacity? If so how much I can increase and how can I do that?

thanks in advance for your help! Best wishes.

I have the same issue of seemingly random freezes on music or music videos but on Win10x64.  Did you resolve this?
Win10x64 Pro. Intel Core2Duo E8500 3.26GHz on Gigabyte GA-EP43-UD3L. 4GB DDR2 1066MHz RAM. Nvidia GT240 512MB PCIx16. Multiple displays, including Sony VPL-XW5000ES 4k projector + 100" Da-Lite Cinema screen.

Sorry for late answer.

I have tried with RPi 3, 4, 5 and Mi Box 4k 2nd Gen. Win 11, Win 10, Mac OS hardware. And still, I have the issue. No solution so far.

The error message "Resource temporarily unavailable (-11)" comes from ffmpeg.
It sounds like a network issue (i.e. the connection to remote site has closed).
My guess is this is not solvable in kodi code (it could be caused at server end, or somewhere in the network between).

Thank you for your answer. But I don't understand a thing. Why does this problem happen on Kodi with this add-on but not on any other players? I have tried other devices with Kodi, yet there is no solution. I have started a new topic related to this. I hope someone, in particular, developers, can see and help with this issue.

Your interest and answers are very valuable for me. Thank you once again.
