Have to reboot Android TV Box every 24 hours or Kodi won't play

by Sadarax

I bought an Mecool KM7 Android TV Box 11.0. About every 24 hours, I have to completely reboot the device, or else Kodi stops working.

The video will load but IMMEDIATELY pauses. If I try to click the 'PLAY' button, it goes forward a single frame, and then pauses again immediately. The only solution is to reboot the entire device, then it works good for about another 24 hours. Anyone else have this problem? How do I permanently fix this? Kodi version 19.3 "Matrix" I believe.

More Info but don't know if relevant: When it was downloading updates the first time, the video playback was a little poor, then when it finished installing and rebooted, the playback quality was good again.

Would love some help with this.

Have you installed the latest firmware for that box?, there is an update available for it, did you know?

I find that Kodi is bad at releasing the audio device or something

It helps immensely to turn on dev options and turn on the "kill Activites on exit" or whatever it is, this will force close Kodi every time you head into another app but tends to make it play nice
