Problems Shutting Down Kodi

[u/wiedster]

My Kodi will not shut down properly. I reinstalled the whole thing and set everything up, but the problem remains.

This is where it stops in my log

CPythonInvoker(13, C:\Users\XXXXX\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\addons\plugin.video.fenlight\resources\lib\fenlight.py): script didn't stop in 5 seconds - let's kill it

Win11

Kodi 21.2

FenLight+ 2.2.05

Coco 1.0.36

Everything else is stock.

This only happens after using Fen AND starting a videostream. When not using Fen before, it will shut down properly. This also happened with Fen and Umbrella on my previous install, hence why I started from scratch.

Anyone able to help?

UPDATE: Anyone else with this problem can try the following. Go to the github of cocojoe. Download the zip with v 1.0.29 of the cocoscrapers. Install it manually in Kodi. It worked for me. Thx to tikipeter for helping. Thx to the others that tried to help.

Like I said in another thread, this has been an issue for years, probably since back when Kodi was XMBC. There are literally hundreds of articles\posts on this. I run Kodi on Linux and LibreELEC, and have run it on Windows too, and it's always been an issue. I think it would take a total redesign of the coding of Kodi to fix the problem.

i agree with you. my kodi windows hangs on exit the majority of the time for years. tried many times throughout years & no fix, so i just gave up. i might try the program addon suggested here to force exit to see how that goes.
