Add-on Crashing Kodi in Ubuntu

[crackulator]

On my installation, the NextPVR addon crashes Kodi incessantly. The amount of time it takes to crash is pretty random; as soon as a minute or two, sometimes 10 or 15 minutes. It doesn't matter if I'm watching TV or not; if the app is enabled, it will crash Kodi before too long. It makes the addon basically unusable. If I disable TV in the Kodi settings, there are no crashes. I think it may be related to accessing the server through the internet; client is at a remote site, accessing the server through the internet.

I think the problem started when I upgraded to Kodi 16; before that, there were no problems. I'm on an Ubuntu platform, was on 14.04, but have updated since to 16 and still see the crashes.

Present versions:
Kodi: 16.1
NextPVR addon: 1.12.17
Ubuntu: 16.04 LTS 64-bit
Hardware: ASUS Chromebox, Intel Celeron 2955U @ 1.40 GHz, Intel Haswell Mobile Graphics
TV Tuner: SiliconDust HDHomeRun

I have it running on two other boxes also using Ubuntu 14.04 and have no problems. The most unique thing about this particular platform is that it is accessing the NextPVR server through the internet; the other two boxes are on my home network along with the server and tuner. I believe I have seen similar crashes on the Android platform when accessing the server through the internet as well.

I'm attaching the Kodi crashlog. If there are other logs that would be valuable, let me know and I can send them along. I've looked at the regular Kodi logs, and they don't seem to say anything (to my view), Kodi just disappears.

Any help would really be appreciated... especially with football season coming... I don't want to abandon NextPVR, but am near to that point.

You have lots of socket EAGAIN conditions.

A patch tried to handle many of these non-error conditions because of shitty RPi networking, but it looks like your internet connection is blocking often and some unhandles conditions are getting through.

Anything I can do about that?

I'd try LibreElec for Chromebox to see if that helps your network issue.
