What is going wrong here? Somewhere here the XBMC crashes and reboots....

http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=147060

I have Gotham beta 1 on an ATV2. I use the Amber skin.

Specifically:
ERROR: CSettings: error loading settings definition from special://xbmc/system/settings/darwin_ios.xml, Line 19
Error reading end tag.
FATAL: Unable to load ios-specific settings definitions

...and later these two:
ERROR: JSONRPC: Could not parse type "GUI.Property.Value"
ERROR: JSONRPC: Could not parse type "Setting.Details.SettingList"

The first is a bug, will fix.

The second isn't a problem and can be ignored.

Thanks a lot for speedy feedback

Out of curiousity, will some errors always be there? Like the second one above? Or are you weeding them out eventually further down the road? If they are acceptable, maybe they should be demoted to 'debug' or 'notice' status instead of 'error'. Just curious how the process works

[jmarshall]

The problem in this case I believe is that we don't know at the time of the Debug Log whether it's an error or not, as I think it occurs when there are dynamically added types (that are filled in later).

I'll ping @Montellese and see whether he has any ideas.

Fixed the first error in 5d300db.

Excellent! Great work

While I am at it

Is this normal? My log is flooded with these:
(I suspect this is what made my movie slow down and behave choppy, jerky during playback, luckily it recovered after a few seconds)

It tells us that you're using OSX and for some reason we weren't feeding audio fast enough.

[skimshady]

I'm using ATV2 and streaming from a brand new Synology DS214+... Audio and Video is in the same MKV Container and XBMC decodes both seperately. Is the Audio decoding somehow delayed compared to the Video decoding?

You think the ATV2 is struggling to keep up, or is it a bug somewhere in Gotham?

[Memphiz]

Nahh this happens when we idle in the gui with nothing playing - sink is not stopped at that moment.

[skimshady]

For info - I use passthrough audio. I don't know if that has anything to do with anything...? :p

A TV show was playing at the time I think, but it is possible that these errors happened after I stopped the TV show or just before I started it... However, the reason I uploaded the log was that the video/audio playback was seriously jerking/chopping around that time.

[Memphiz]

Then do a proper debug log (wiki) ... (full log with debug turned on and loaded to pastebin.com).

The underflow / low memory / limitations concerning video playback and subsequent crashes on the ATV2 running Gotham is handled in this thread:
