Bro, pls pm me the detail of what you play back and which addon? As mentioned in the earlier thread, I don't recommend to use Kodi 17 until 17.1 or 17.2 is released.

The video and audio of Kodi are undergoing multiple phase rewrite as mentioned by Kodi website.

kodi 17, try this:
settings-video-hardware acceleration...
untick "surface" media codec, leave the other on.

can u describe...

.. kodi 17.0 official or rc1, rc2, rc3?
.. which addon?
.. for all shows?
.. if u tick the "surface" on, the sound and screen comes back?
.. audio passthru enabled or disablad?

i checked again...

.. exodus or quasar, i can get all videos nice n smooth with "surface acceleration" disabled (if enabled, will judder)
.. audio pass thru, best to disable as it won't work with 17.0 anyway.
.. shut down box, tv, avr, restart everything; do quick clean at himedia launcher to remove cache; enter kodi again.
.. if still fail, u should remove, delete everything from kodi incl data files, resinstall the whole lot.
.. kodi 17.0 is still very new, possible some bugs.
