I have to kill it but it becames defunct.
I am using alsa 1.0.10 and myth 0.18.1
I believe it's the sound card because of the following mythfrontend
output appears when the crash occurs:
006-01-07 14:27:19.240 prebuffering pause
Sure it's not an I/O issue? Perhaps the buffer underrun on the audio
was due to the lack of data caused by prebuffering pauses. Were you
playing HDTV? Problem with your hard drives or network (if using a
network filesystem or Myth streaming)?
Not HDTV. The files are all on the local filesystem, on a 3 or 4 month
old Maxtor 6L250R0, ATA DISK.
I have not seen any evidence of drive failure. Not to say this is not
the culpret.
DMA is on.
Yesterday, on my mythfrontend/backend/filserver machine, mythfrontend
froze at 00:23:46 of a recording. I killed the frontend, it became
defunct. I started another frontend, seeked ahead to 00:23:46 and the
second mythfrontend froze and became defunct also. I went to another PC
and started mythfrontend, seeked ahead to 00:23:46 and mythfrontend
froze and became defunct. From the second PC I tried to play the file
directly using mplayer via nfs and mplayer froze at 00:23:46. I had to
kill mplayer which became defunct. After a reboot, I managed to play the
file straight through.
Not sure anyone can make sense of this call trace:
