SFTP Sources not playing
#1
I'm running XBMC 12.2 (via XBian on a Pi) and am having trouble playing from an SFTP source. The source machine is Ubuntu 13.04.

I can add the source and browse everything using "Files", and the library was successful at scanning all the content, but when I try and play something, nothing happens. I've tried MP3s and MKVs.

The logs show:

I don't think it's authentication related as there are no errors in auth.log.
Code:
Sep 16 08:39:35 x200-1304-ob sshd[17389]: Accepted password for xbmc from 192.168.1.133 port 37404 ssh2

Sep 16 08:43:35 x200-1304-ob sshd[17389]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session closed for user xbmc

I've read about this bug related to SFTP / SSH, but I think it was resolved for XBMC 12.0, and this is a different issue (scanning works for me, but playing content does not).

Any ideas?

Can you do a full debug log with debugging enabled, and posted via a pastebin-like site? As described on Log file/Easy (wiki).

Hmm, after I reboot I can no longer reproduce this issue. Strange. Will re-open if it comes back.
