dvdplayer restart my pc on video playback - jot4ce - 2014-10-18
Hi all,
I have problems with the player dvdplayer.
When I start to watch a movie, about 20-30 minutes later, the pc restarts.
If I check the log (xbmc.old.log) there is no error. (I use <loglevel hide = "false">3</ loglevel>)
If I use mplayer as player (editing playercorefactory.xml), the video plays correctly.
I tried to disable hardware acceleration and VAAPI, but I have the same problems.
My setup is as follows:
x86-PC (xbmcbuntu 13.0 os:Ubuntu 14.04 64bit, kernel: 3.13.0-37-generic, videocard: Intel 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (ivy bridge) and xbmc:13.2
My extra parameters for the kernel are:
i915.i915_enable_rc6=0 intel_idle.max_cstate=0
Anyone have any idea that I could be happening?
Thanks!

No. Looks like a hardware issue, most likely memory.

But it is not strange that with mplayer to work properly?
Since I have mplayer as external player (one week), has not been returned to restart.

Hi,
I used memtest to test the memory. Apparently memory works correctly.
I have also tried vlc and the computer does not restart.

Yeah - then bad for you. No one can help you without proper dmesg / Debug Log / anything else.
xbmc is an OpenGL Application which does hw decoding + OpenGL rendering. It puts obviously more pressure on the hardware then some desktop players.

check dmesg and Xorg.log after a crash

When the problem occurs, the computer restarts.
I attach the logs (dmesg & xbmc.log.1 & xorg.conf.1).
dmesg:
Xorg.0.log.old:
xbmc.old.log:
The mplayer works from within xbmc (playerfactory.xml). So I thought I could be dvdplayer problem.
Thanks,

aplay -l please
It looks like an absolute misconfiguration (starting with non existing audio).
RE: dvdplayer restart my pc on video playback - wsnipex - 2014-10-20
your log is full of audio errors. Xbmc is not able to open an audio device....

It is true, sorry. To rule out things, I turned off the sound card.
I tried to edit the message, but it was too late.
The "correct" links are:
dmesg -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8602758/
xorg -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8602855/
xbmc -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/8602870/
Thanks,

Nothing - if it crashes, e.g. segfault then there should be crashlogs in your home directory.
