videos stutter sometimes/xbmc sluggish
#1
xbmc works fine for most of the time. but sometimes when i start a video it stutters and xbmc becomes sluggish.

to solve this i just restart xbmc and everything works fine again.

anyone have any idea of why this is happening and how i can solve it?

as it happens just sometimes and i notice it first when ive started the video i have no idea how i could catch this on some Debug Log to paste here. as i guess if i start the Debug Log after it happened it wont give any details of it happening.

im running a mac mini (late 2012)
with os x mountain lion with latest update (xbmc summary says darwin 12.4 0 darwin kernel 12.4.0)
and im running xbmc frodo (12.2 Git: 20130502-32b1a5e (compiled may 2 2013))


from what i can see theres no cpu or ram issues (not even near full capacity)

can you check xbmc.log in Utilities->console

I experience the same problem and the log file shows

23:43:09 T:2960846848 ERROR: AddPackets - failed to add leftover bytes to render
23:43:10 T:2960846848 ERROR: CDVDAudio::AddPacketsRenderer - timeout adding data to renderer

also saw that post, but that didnt help me. (tried the nightly build mentioned and also tried the latest monthly build)

i still experience stuttering and no audio in xbmc after a while. to bad they closed that thread..

ill see if i can get the logs you requested. thought i have no idea what the utilities/console thing is.. i have no such thing in xbmc and no such path/directory i can find.
