Crash on selecting item to play?! - noelpilot - 2008-03-01 Hi all, xbmc on osx looks truly awesome, I know lots of people have it working so I'd love to know what I'm doing it wrong. I'm on a 2GHz Macbook with 2gb Ram, I can open xbmc, navigate around and have added the Movies folder within my home drive as a source. When I click this it either crashes there or lets me in and crashes when I choose a file to play! Any thoughts? Thought I'd ask in case its something obvious before delving into log files! Thanks Noel - cyantist - 2008-03-02 Hi Noel, Is your movie folder on a network share? I had a problem similar to this a while back but I can't remember what I did to fix it. I seem to recall it had something to do with how I added the source. Sorry I can't be of more help. Keep trying! OSXBMC is still quite buggy, but overall it's mostly useable once you get around it's quirks. I have much faith in elan to get everything fixed in due time... - elan - 2008-03-02 "Quite buggy"? Hmmphhh Remember people, if it crashes hit the "Report..." button and paste that to Pastie. Do so and you'll get much love from me. -elan - noelpilot - 2008-03-02 Have posted onto trac tickets, is that correct? Thanks Noel - cyantist - 2008-03-02 Sorry elan, no offense intended, but you know it's true, although it's getting better with every release.. Keep up the good work.. PS. I just spent the last 3 hours setting up my movie library, exited, then restarted only to find my library empty again.. And this is not the first time I've done this.. I read that turning off 'Update Library on Startup' might be the cause of this, so I'm going to try it again with this setting off.. It's downloading info as I type this.. Should be done by morning (again).. Hmmphhh indeed.. - noelpilot - 2008-03-23 Sorted, thanks to the sticky's showing me how to read the log I found that it was crashing trying to read/generate a thumbnail for an asf file within my movies folder. So i created a folder placed one mov in there and jobs good, right time to play - jeremymc7 - 2008-03-24 elan Wrote:"Quite buggy"? Hmmphhh I'd love to. Problem is that most of the time when mine crashes (went selecting a Video_TS VOB file to play), OSXBMC closes, drops to desktop, and I get no standard Apple message that it actually crashed. Guess I need to start running from terminal instead and pulling the log. |
