The list of changes also says that version 17.5 includes a “more robust way of handling audio output on variety of Android devices.” Since it seems like crashes are limited to Android devices, the Android audio changes seem like a likely culprit to why the new version is crashing. This latest update mostly contains bug fixes and updates the FFmpeg video library. Android TV users, like Mi Box and NVIDIA Shield TV users, have also been reporting crashes with version 17.5 of Kodi. The issues seem to be limited to Android devices, but are not limited to just Fire TV devices. That said, enough people are having issues that it wouldn’t be a bad idea to hold off on updating until we know more about why the app is crashing for some people. Most Kodi users, including myself, are not having issues with the latest update. Several people ( 1, 2, 3) are reporting that version 17.5 crashes immediately when launched on Fire TV devices.
The Kodi team recommends that everyone updates to the new version because it contains several bug fixes, but you might actually want to hold off on updating or even skip this version entirely. The latest version of Kodi, version 17.5, was released yesterday.
