Playback crashing XBMC
#1
Hi,

Adding in more info as I gather it...

XBMC build is 12.3 Git:20131212-9ed3e58.
I'm streaming from a Windows 8 laptop.
I installed odo via APT-get command using putty.

The problem is that upon selecting an mp4 file for playback on tv via ATV
from laptop, XBMC is continually crashing. The problem first started
yesterday, so I updated XBMC from Eden to Frodo (V12.3).

I've disabled lots of settings and then got it to play a file, however
when stopped and restarted, XBMC began crashing again, so problem
intermittent, (much) more often crashing than playing

XBMC log http://www.xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=153943
Crashlog http://www.xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=155091

Based on crashlog - it has been a low memory crash each time, I tried to free up memory following this guide, however problem persists.

Just enabled syslog, however the file is huge and was not able to copy it. Will try again and upload when I sort this out.

Any help appreciated.

This log just shows that your screensaver got activated ... what screensaver is it? tried to deactivate it?

Thanks for reply. In Screensavers menu under Add Ons, there is a 'black' and a 'dim' screensaver enabled, however don't have access to disable them, as those options greyed out.

I actually deleted XBMC entirely from the ATV2 and did a clean install. It plays back on initial attempt, however after that back to same issue again.

Just tried again, restarted XBMC in debug mode, tried to play an episode of 'The Following', usual crash.

There seems to be a low memory crash report every time it crashes in privaye/var/logs/crashreporter folder, as follows

Is there any other logs that I can get that may be able to help determine source of problem
