My Kodi stopped working a few days ago. When I launch it I get a black/grey screen and nothing happens. Cleared cache and I saw it loading with the Kodi logo and then back to the black screen. Anyone face this problem? Do I need to uninstall and reinstall Kodi?

Most likely. Now if you enabled logging .. You might be able to decipher what might have corrupted the booting and fix it.. Typically some corrupt file or dbase, etc.. This be why it's good to keep backups handy.. Say once per week at minimum. Just automate it and there will always be a backup to restore on a fresh install.

Don't know how to enable logging and may not understand the logs anyway. Will try uninstalling first and see if it works. Thanks.

A re-install should clear it right up.. How did it go?

Reinstalled and it worked for awhile but its now back to the grey screen. The only thing I use in Kodi is to link it to my NAS for videos, music and photos. Quite strange that its crashing.
How do I do the logging and troubleshoot? Enable developer status and there seems to be a lot of logging related options. Any guides on what to do next?

Yep.. For just that? It's a bit strange... For logging and viewing.. You can use the Kodi logs uploader addon.. Then check the logs for the error. Googling it might bring up others who've suffered the same issue and possibly solved it. However, i did do some light reading. I assume you are using the latest Kodi V18.3? As there were reports about issues with the Shield & SMB protocol used. Did you use Shield's "connect" or created through Kodi?

Mine is 18.2 and I'm using NFS not SMB. Will try to reinstall and use the logs uploader addon. I'm not sure what that bolded part means.

Try installing the latest Kodi version... The bold part referred to 2 ways to set up NAS connectivity.. Either using the Shield's settings OR through Kodi itself. I don't own the device itself and so can't troubleshoot between those 2.. Wish you luck.

Hi all shield sifu. I just got my shield today after COD with a shopee seller here in Penang island.

Which Kodi version best to play softcopy movie with Dolby vision and Atmos support? I would like to rip all my 4k uhd movie disk into my Nas.

Obviously use the latest Kodi 18.3 but unfortunately Shield TV can't do Dolby Vision due to no DV license.

Thanks. Will try setup Kodi 18.3 later. Too bad DV not working. Guess I still need to rely on netflix playing from my android TV to get DV.

Yup true but there is no indication that NVIDIA will not add DV support for NSTV.

I replied your PM

Both NSTV 2015 & 2017 spotted with Android Pie on Google Play Console. It's been almost 3 months under closed beta since May 2019.
Maybe public release will be announced together with the new NSTV in September.

Finally!

Those upgraded TV apps need to install separately right? Some not in my list or I may uninstall previously.
