Linux GUI freeze using addon SVTPlay with RC2
#1
Maybe 1/10 times I use the addon SVT Play I get a full hang of XBMC.

When starting a video, the video never shows but often the audio works. Nothing works but I can see in xbmc.log that my "Stop" keypresses on the remote are registered.

Two logs with this incident, can something be explained by them or what do I need to do? Activate debug?

Btw, to exit I did ctrl-alt-f1 and first tried kill <pid of xbmc.bin> but that didn't work so I had to kill -9 <pid of xbmc.bin>.

try rolling back to a 275 or lower driver

What do you base that on? Can't even find that version, all PPAs that had it has newer versions now or versions for other systems than the one I have (Ubuntu 11.10).

I'll do the opposite while waiting for a reply, install the newest (295).

Allright, good threads. I think I will go with 275 until 12.04 is released and then upgrade (since the reports seems to say that fixes it).

After following this thread (recommended above) I upgraded to 12.04. Because 275 didn't help for me.

XBMC has been really stable since, with one exception. When using SVT Play. I am pasting two xbmc.log's from two hangs and one crashlog which was written after I killed -9 the process the last time.

xbmc.log from one freeze

xbmc.log from another one

and crashlog from the same

So when I get this, I still have the paused image on the screen but no key seems to do anything. I can see that my STOP-presses on the remote are registered in the xbmc.log though! So it's not completely dead. I'll paste a little excerpt from the log below, just the part that is written after the HTPC has been idle for ~ two hours.
