Hi friends! I have noticed that my board started resetting itself ever 5 minutes. I have already tried all possible builds: OpenELEC & Kodi 16.1, LibreELEC & Kodi 16.1, LibreELEC & Kodi 17.1 and they all have the same issue with my board. Can anyone help me, please? How could I solve this this problem?

Those are known to work:

The bad power supply would be my first guess.

Would like to support power supply guess.

Thanks guys! I have found out the cause of the problem using the exclusion method and it is the EPG! As only its link is written in PVR Simple Client, the board restarts Kodi (not LibreELEC) every 5:42 minutes. If I set the local & empty EPG field the problem disappears. What should I do in such case?

I have to make a correction. Trying to figure out the cause of the problem using EPG link I have finally found the real cause of these restarts. It was the disabled option "Prevent updates during playback" in the TV section. This option is enabled by default and I had turned it off because I want my Guide to be updated whenever it needs to and it was causing this strange behavior. Now, I have enabled it and I have to stop the playback if I want my TV Guide to be updated. But, I have never any Kodi restarts now finally! Very strange to me and the question is why is this thing happening? Perhaps, someone could help me with it? I also wonder if all of you guys have the same issue when you disable this option? Thanks in advance!
