Screensaver slideshow bug

Hi,

Screensaver slideshow doesn work for me. I select "slideshow" and then I select "screensaver preview" and then XBMC hangs.

I put xbmc.log in http://pastebin.com/REHeik84. It shows some errors.

Some information:
- Tested XBMC Camelot (9.11) and trunk (rev 29377).
- Ubuntu karmic (9.10).
- Used ./configure without options.

Another issue is that the screensaver works in arm_camelot branck on a beagleboard!

I tried to report the bug but I couldn't.

Regards,

Vane.

Sorry, I had to select the slideshow folder, otherwise it hangs.

Regards.

Please post a bug report on trac with the full details to reproduce.

I tried to create a new ticket but the result was:

Error: Forbidden

TICKET_CREATE privileges are required to perform this operation

Is this the way to report a bug? I've read http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=HOW-TO_Submi...Bug_Report.

Regards.

Login first.

Ok, now I can report a bug, but this one is not a bug, it's solved. You have to select a picture folder.

Thanks!

It is a bug. If you don't select a folder it should not hang.

Mmm, I'm not sure...

If you select a non-pictures folder (a folder when you have other type of documents) and you you select "screensaver preview", xbmc seems to hang but it doesn't. If you leave it alone for a while (some seconds), then it responds again (I've discovered this today) and then it shows some pictures that I don't know where they are but I'm pretty sure they aren't in the folder you have selected.

I think I need more test. If I'll discover something, I'll post it here and if, finally, is a bug, I'll report it.

Thank you.
