Hi guys,

does anyone else get this in the latest version.

08:51:59 T:10020672 DEBUG: Alloc resources: 0.31ms (0.01 ms skin load)
08:51:59 T:10020672 DEBUG: CGUIInfoManager::SetCurrentMovie(pvr://channels/tv/All TV channels/154.pvr)
08:51:59 T:10020672 DEBUG: CAnnouncementManager - Announcement: OnPlay from xbmc

then the GUI is frozen until I restart it.

Cheers,
Neil

Do you see the cpu load go to a maximum if that happens? I might have seen this issue. It's nasty because the debugger does not allow to break in this situation.

The same in my case.

i will check my CPU is it going to 100% when it crash again , im sorry for the delay i was not able to go online 2 days Smile

and 1 more thing is there anything i can do to restart XBMC or whole PC with the remote ?
Im lazy to go to other room where is my PC and reboot it with Putty ssh connection becouse i dont have keyboard and mouse Smile

cpu is not on 100% when GUI freezes , im now testing new VDR 1.7.23
this gui freeze is happening when LIVE TV cant decode a channel and it says signal lost , then signal restored ... and if this happens 2-3 times GUI freeze and i must restart.

Sometimes this is enough to stop tv playback and start it again and there is no more freezes. But, sometimes xbmc freezes totally and pkill X on other terminal is only way get control again.

yeah but the worst part is if i restart KDM and when xbmc load again and i switch on some channel or when i play a movie there is no picture anymore ( i think video driver fu*ks up and i must restart the whole pc...

is there a way to restart X with CTRL ALT and BACKSPACE ? on Kubuntu ? why they removed the shortcut...

Go to keyboard layout options and enable this.
