Update 21.1.0 Stalker crashed on Windows #227

Closed DWH-WFC closed 5 months ago

DWH-WFC commented 5 months ago

Hello from Germany. Since the update last night, Kodi keeps crashing shortly after starting. It always freezes briefly when Stalker starts and then crashes. It worked fine with the last version. A new installation of Kodi and Stalker produces the same result. When upgrading from Kodi 20.5 to 21.0, it works until the next Kodi restart, then Kodi also crashes when loading the client.

Ok, then it looks like it might be a runtime issue.

Can you revert to the released kodi version, and then run it to prove it crashes and if so, then try installing https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170, to see if it goes away?

It might be that the newer version of the addon is built with a newer runtime and systems with an older runtime then crash.

Yes. It needs Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Version 14.40.33810.0 to run.

Now it's working fine.

I can confirm, this resolved the isue on x86/x64 Windows 10 installations ... even the newest version of "inputstream.adaptive" is working now ( probobly built with the same newer runtime ). Thank You!

@phunkyfish are changes required in the addon source to fix this problem? I am asking, because users reporting the same for pvr.waipu

No changes required in the addon. Users can install the latest VC++ redistributable or use an Omega nightly of kodi.
