Help and Support

I’ve got a video file that seems to crash Kodi when I try to play it (it shows the :frowning_face: for a while and then goes back to the home screen GUI) . Here’s the snippet of the log file from when I try to play:

Is this more of a Kodi error that I should report to that project? I’m sure I can transcode or find another copy of but I figured it’s worth reporting. Let me know if more info is needed.

Thanks!

PS: FWIW, this file doesn’t play back with VLC either though it doesn’t cause that application to crash.

Sounds like a bad file. I wouldn’t waste any more of your time with it.
