For some reason I didn't get the original post by Chris, so I'm replying to this one. 0.3.3l is MUCH better with the hangs. I've been playing with it, and was having trouble getting it to hang after many jumps. I thought I had it narrowed down to the possibility that the hangs occur after doing some FF/RW first, especially 3x FF, but after trying 3x and 5x in both directions and then doing skips, it still wouldn't hang. What I've noticed so far is that it seems to hang fairly easily after exiting a show and starting to playback another show and then trying to skip. The only useful info I get is out of the myth frontend log which says this: Using the PVR-350 decoder/TV-out 2005-04-25 16:21:25.238 Changing from None to WatchingPreRecorded 2005-04-25 16:21:25.331 Using realtime priority. 2005-04-25 16:21:40.796 Waited too long for decoder to pause 2005-04-25 16:21:44.798 Waited too long for decoder to pause 2005-04-25 16:21:48.799 Waited too long for decoder to pause 2005-04-25 16:21:52.801 Waited too long for decoder to pause 2005-04-25 16:21:56.802 Waited too long for decoder to pause 2005-04-25 16:22:00.803 Waited too long for decoder to pause Ok, before sending this email I tried a few more times after a fresh cold boot in between each freeze. I found that regardless of whether I do FF/RW or only do some skips, it is very very stable with the first recording, but freezes basically on the first jump every time on the next recording that is played. In my final test, I played one recording for about a minute without doing any skipping or FF/RW, and then played a second recording. It froze after the 3rd skip on the 2nd recording. Maybe something isn't being cleaned up properly, or initialized properly? Hope this offers some clues! ~Lou
