v18 Kodi frame rate and audio stutters

[FlatText]

After updating to Kodi 18 boblight is interfering with video/audio playback, causing unwatchable frame rates and audio out of sync. Using Android 5.1.1 (MediaCodec) on Odroid C2

Settings attempt 1
MediaCodec (Surface) hardware acceleration ON
MediaCodec hardware acceleration ON

---

No boblight, video/audio perfect.

Settings attempt 2
MediaCodec (Surface) hardware acceleration ON
MediaCodec hardware acceleration OFF

---

Boblight static light on the top left, video/audio perfect.

Settings attempt 3 (this was the setting before updating to Kodi 18)
MediaCodec (Surface) hardware acceleration OFF
MediaCodec hardware acceleration ON

Boblight works perfectly but video frame rates are unwatchable + audio is laggy

Settings attempt 4
MediaCodec (Surface) hardware acceleration OFF
MediaCodec hardware acceleration OFF

---

Boblight works but pulses with every change, making it annoying and unwatchable. Other than that video/audio perfect.
