Neon freezing on startup

bsoriano Wrote:Please pardon the newbie question, but how do I disable the tvshow.next.aired script? If I do, I guess the only thing in the skin that will not work correctly is the TV Guide, is this correct?

I recently switched back to Dharma because of this problem. Any help will be greatly appreciated, since I just love the latest Neon skin and want to go back to it! By the way, using the latest nightly (July 20) did not solve the problem for me.

I just pushed an update that has the Next Aired script disabled at startup. If you don't want to wait for the update, edit the startup.xml file as follows:

does the update disable the feature completely or does it just start later?

It just doesn't auto-run the update. Youse have to go to the next aired addon and refresh it there. This is just temporary until the underlying issue is resolved.

I think I found the root cause (at least it is not locking for me any longer) and have pushed an update. Fingers crossed.

I disabled TV Next Show Aired and Weather+ and the freezing went away... Hope this gets fixed soon as I love having the TV Guide in Neon

I was very curious about your fix for that problem so I grabbed your latest version from github.
Sorry to report it didn´t work for me, xbmc still freezes at startup:
debug log

Your lockup is happening long after the startup.XML has been processed so I don't think it is related. You may want to disable all of the add ons that returning errors at the end of the log.

I cleaned my addon directory and got rid of all the repository´s but xbmc keeps freezing at startup.
It´s the same with roni´s transparency skin, whenever weatherplus and nextaired are activated XBMC freezes.
I think I just have to wait till #11528 gets fixed.

Code:

Look for:

<onfocus>XBMC.RunScript(script.tv.show.next.aired,silent=true&amp;alarm=99)</onfocus>
<onfocus>Notification(Startup,TV Guide Updated)</onfocus>

Change to:

<!-- <onfocus>XBMC.RunScript(script.tv.show.next.aired,silent=true&amp;alarm=99)</onfocus>
<onfocus>Notification(Startup,TV Guide Updated)</onfocus> -->

Thanks stoli! Will try tonight with XBMC nightly from July 20 (for Windows) and your latest version from git.

Noob;

I'm using Neon on atv2 and it's also locking up.

Only problem is it doesn't give me a chance to change the skin as it locks up before I can get into settings .

So I'm basically stuck with a atv2 that freezes after about 10secs on starting xbmc .
