MP3 Streams 'Play Now' Hangs Kodi 18.0

[Jeffers24]

On android, different versions 5,6 and 7.
After choosing favourite artists>artist>Album popup asks 'Browse' or 'Play Now', if I choose play now Kodi hangs and I have to go to settings>apps and do a force close Kodi to recover.
This issue also happened in RC releases of Kodi.
The 'Play Now' function works OK on Kodi 17.6.

i was working on that issue on kodi18.
are you able to provide a log file?
thank you

[Jeffers24]

I will provide whatever may help.
I have never done a log before, would you advise on what logging to use and settings, to ensure I capture what would help you??
Once I receive your response I will produce and send log.
After selecting 'Play Now', popup appears for a few seconds it looks like MP3Streams is downloading something (tracks in album), as in 17.6, but then hangs.
Happy to test any modified version to check this problem gone.

firstly you can install kodi logfile uploader from kodi's official repository and when you'll produce the error open it and hit upload and share the link it shows!thank you
also the code of this addon is too old and it will need a refreshment but i dont have the time to do it!

[Jeffers24]

Not sure this is going to work, when I get the problem Kodi hangs I have to go into settings apps and force stop Kodi and start it again. Thinking it may be the old log that you need?
Did as you suggested and the code Kodi Log Updater is displaying is https://paste.kodi.tv/zefuqivace (all upper case).
I could take the old log and upload it to dropbox and paste a link here?

[Jeffers24]

This should be my kodi old log I dragged and dropped it here

Let me know if it is not/no use

kodi.old.log

[Jeffers24]

Fresh install of Kodi 18.0, only Cellar Door TV Repo and MP3Streams installed, log after experiencing Kodi freezing issue.
Maybe easier to see issue

kodi.log

Same issue here on Kodi 18.
Whatever i choose browse works fine but play now always freezing Kodi.

I found the issue and fixed it but I can't make it play the songs...I need more time...
and maybe help!

[Jeffers24]

Thanks for looking at the issue and response.
If I had the programming skills I would fix it and give you the fix.
I am reasonably logical, and I am happy to help in anyway I can.
I don't know how difficult it is to learn the programming language, if you can point me to a good 'How to get started' programming tutorial/s I will have a go at trying to learn how to do it.
If I can help by looking at something logically, testing, providing logs let me know.

this is an issue for other add-on (MP3STREAMS) not sport365 add-on!
create a new issue!
also addon is working ok i just checked 3 events so probably an issue in your end!
