Opening of a RTSP IP Cam URL via strm file ends up in reboot (bad smiley) since Nov update

Hi, i am facing a problem since last Nov. update. I have three IP cams, one via http:// and two via rtsp:// URL’s:

rtsp://xxx:xxx@192.168.0.188:554/live/ch0
rtsp://xxx:xxx@192.168.0.101:554/profile5/media.smp
http://xxx:xxx@192.168.0.133:888/video/mjpg.cgi

http:// is still working as ususal but both rtsp URL’s lead to an immediate reboot.
The strm files i am using for each cam contain only the above URL’s.

Except the Nov. update no system settings were changed and no additional addon was installed.

kodi.log shows no meaningful information to me:

It’s fixed in the staging repository.

  1. Login via the command line
  2. Edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list
  3. Add the following line: deb http://apt.osmc.tv stretch-devel main
  4. Run the following commands to update: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && reboot
  5. Your system should have have received the update.

Please see if the issue is resolved.

I also recommend you edit /etc/apt/sources.list again and remove the line that you added after updating. This will return you to the normal update channel.
