Description

If you play a stream for any length of time approx >5 minutes (?) then stop playback, the xbox hangs.
It still responds to ftp, but video seems to be hung forever on the wait animation, requires a power reset.

tested:
Not skin related.
happens with all recent versions of x4x i've tried (around 3.2 to 3.2.1)
haven't seen this with any other plugins so far.

workaround: go to menu before pressing STOP. hang also happens if stream dropped due to network issues.

for discussion i have threads here

e.g.
"ERROR: CThread::staticThread : Access violation at 0x1e050139: Reading location 0x0000000c"

Thanks. exactly how I like a bug report - with all the information to reproduce etc. Although I have a feeling this one might be tricky to track down.

debug log is gone now - did you set it for a limited time? how does this work with the latest svn build?

sorry but you need to upload a new full log as the old one is now gone. With any error I need to reference lots of things in the logs, such as versions of software, skins in use, script/plugin versions etc. I don't know which version of the tv catchup extension you are running for example.

I have played video back from a couple of channels usnig attached plugin v1.4.8 (taken from the tvcatchup website with a minor change for compatibility with xbmc4xbox addon emulator). I watched both channels for more than 5 mins and then stopped the video playback. After a short pause it returned fine to the channel list.

ok with plugin 1.48 and dev build 32643 it seems to be fixed. sometimes pauses for a while but always seems to go back to menu eventually. i may have got some hangs but can't recreate today. can anyone else confirm fixed?

I would be interested to know if the older plugin that used to crash still crashes with 3.5 beta 2 as I fixed a bug that caused some problems with python scripts.

yes i got a hang with the older ver of plugin, also on 32643, on first attempt actually. sorry for delay updating this! thanks. do you want me to install newer build now?

Actions #12

Updated by buzz about 10 years ago

32643 is older than 3.5 beta 2 - and before I have done the fix for the freezing. I am interested in a test against 3.5 beta 2 or newer. Cheers.

sorry, half asleep.

yes get the same hang in 3.5b2, also first attempt (ran for ~5 mins then Stop), using older plugin (1.4.3 I think?).
hope i'm giving it long enough to unfreeze, ~3 minutes and no ui response is enough?
as before i can still connect on FTP.

Updated by buzz about 10 years ago

not sure then, but since it works on the newer version, ill leave this for now. alternatively I will need another debug log with the latest build. thanks.
