Yesterday, the Kodi Foundation rolled out a release candidate for Kodi 18.1, the first update for the newest version of its popular home theater software.

If you’ve been having problems with Kodi 18, then you’ll want to grab this as it comes with a long list of fixes and improvements.

Kodi 18.1 'Leia' RC promises the following changes:

Speed up Player and Playlists operations with JSON-RPC
Define a senseful default value for advanced settings 'updateemptytagsinterval'
Revert edge case crash fix that caused DVDs to be not recognized on macOS
Remove "dxvaallowhqscaling" advanced setting to prepare for DXVA improvements in v18.2 for Windows
Linux X11: fix usage of required configuration values
Add date to the log records
Don't react on DPI change event on Win10 >= FCU
Fix Android MediaCodec freeze when early disposing stream
Flush streamplayers if abort is requested which solves waiting too long. Skippingskip DVD screens for example
Fix ListitemAbsolute and ListItemPosition in GUI engine
Ignore very first "server not reachable" notification for PVR servers
Use extended result codes for SQLite
Fix invalid PTS decoder value which should improve MPEG2 playback on Android devices
update SSL CA trust store
Handle empty vertex buffers in GUIFontTTFGL which caused a hard crash
Reintroduce setting "Close channel OSD after switching channels" for PVR

RenderCapture: Only query Occlusion if GL lower 1.5

Check if app intent is valid on Android. This fixes a hard crash when trying to open Kodi again
Fix PVR input stream creation for PVR file items only containing a path and no recording/channel tag.
Fix playing VP9 streams using inputstream addon. It failed because codec extradata is not existent for this stream codec.
Catch an exception while reading or writing a file
Fix logical "or" operation in GUI engine
Check the system capabilities to support sleep states S1/S2/S3/S4 before reporting them as available
Fix crash in PCSX ReARMed with BIOS
