2.5.0 hangs if Kodi is offline.
After upgrading from v2.4.7 to v2.5.0, Kore hangs when Kodi is offline.
F-Droid, Kore v2.4.7, v2.5.0 Android 9 SM-T720
In the absence of an active network connection with Kodi, Kore 2.5.0 will hang if media libraries (for example, 'Movies' or 'TV Shows') are selected. The app is immediately unresponsive and after a few seconds the screen goes black. Eventually, after about 15 seconds, the condition times out and the cached media thumbnails are displayed, as expected.
Being able to conveniently review titles in my media collection - offline - is a feature that I use extensively and rely upon, often when I'm away from home (and Kodi).
Reverting back to Kore v2.4.7 resolves the issue, with cached thumbsnails immediately viewable, with or without a network connection.
