XBMC Gotham on XBMCbuntu was working great until:
- When I select a video (movie) in any addon, XBMC tries to start it and then suddenly closes!
- As an example, I select a video in YouTube addon (Jay Leno - De Tomaso Pantera), I ear the sound of the car for 1/2 second without image and then XBMC closes...

Other sections of XBMC work fine:
- Picture section works fine.
- Radio section is working great as well as the animation during songs.

Here's what I get from xbmc.log trying to open Jay Leno - De Tomaso Pantera video using YouTube addon:

Any idea? I'm really stuck here...

Thanks,

Try turning off acceleration.

[JohnSea2]

Hi nickr,

- I opened Firefox and YouTube
- I searched for the video (Jay Leno - De Tomaso Pantera) and started it
- I right cliked on the video and selected "Settings..." (Flash)
- I unchecked "Enable video acceleration" (Flash)

But XBMC still closes...

Take your log OUT of the thread and put the ENTIRE log on pastebin or xbmclogs.com

[wsnipex]

its a problem with your GFX drivers. _PASTEBIN_ a full Debug Log

[JohnSea2]

I tested the video from YouTube with VLC and Firefox and it plays fine.

I ennabled debugging in XBMC and executed:
>> sudo apt-get install pastebinit -y
>> cat $HOME/.xbmc/temp/xbmc.log | pastebinit

Here's my NEW pastebin with more details.

nickr... I just found out about Advance Settings in XBMC so I turned off acceleration, but no change.

I tried many combination (VDPAU, VAAPI, ...) but without success.

I'm really really stuck here...

[nickr]

Sorry I get "502 Bad Gateway" error on your log URL. Can you check it and post back the correct one?

I have a feeling that your video chipset is too old, but a log would tell us more.

[JohnSea2]

Hi nickr,

The new pastebin.

Thanks for the help!
