I mostly make this post to save myself some time next time I run into this issue. I run libreelec on a Raspberry Pi 4 attached to a tv that really just acts as a display, purely to play content from Jellyfin and YouTube. Every few months it will just seemingly randomly stop playing content from either Jelyfin and YouTube, usually at very inconvenient times. To diagnose this I enabled ssh. And started inspecting the kodi logs (which are located at ~/.kodi/temp/kodi.log btw), it would always look like the following.

ERROR <general>: EXCEPTION Thrown (PythonToCppException) : -->Python callback/script returned the following error<--
    - NOTE: IGNORING THIS CAN LEAD TO MEMORY LEAKS!

Upon searching for a solution to this several posts suggest updating the apps or disabling auto update. I have however found a way easier solution to just get back up and running. Simply running find -name \*.pyc -delete to get rid of all the .pyc, which is a suggestion I found over on github.
