Hi there, I have noticed that heavy number crunching in vdr can cause the arm to crash with current CVS, and all previous CVS versions I have over here. While doing this number crunching, the CPU sits somewhere between 85 and 95 percent, so I suppose it could spike to > 99% occasionally. I'm almost positive we are getting section XRUNs, with those numbers it is likely we are not returning from processing in time and miss some sections.
Have all the fixes made it into DVB that are related to interrupt missing etc or are they still waiting in DVB-kernel? I'm running 2.4.19-RC1 + LL + preempt + firm timers Can you see how something in the section code could cause the arm to crash? One time, just before it crashed, it tried to play data likely not meant for the decoder and output several seconds of noise, interleaved with 250ms of good audio data, then crashed. The 250ms number is a guess. It could be as short as 60ms, my memory is a little hazy and it only happened once. Help is appreciated. _J -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
