Bug#521650: me-tv will not start at all after the initial channel scan - and never after

2009-03-29 Thread Takis Diakoumis
Package: me-tv
Version: 0.5.33-3
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

after the initial channel scan which works fine, me-tv will not start.
selecting from the gnome menu does nothing after the initial scan (the
channel scan runs only when a channels.conf file does not exist).

usb tv dongle used works fine with VLC.

running from a terminal returns the following:

*** glibc detected *** me-tv: free(): invalid pointer: 0xb551 ***

If you can't be bothered then I can understand that.  If you would like it
fixed I'm willing to help, your call.

I think that version had a ~/.me-tv/me-tv.config file where the settings are
held.  If you know XML then you can edit the file.  Look for something like
xine.video_driver.  It might be set to something like xv, try xshm.

Thanks,

Michael

0.7.16 is dead-sexy in comparison and I understand why you would gravitate
to it but now we have a grave bug that nobody has an environment to
reproduce it in.

We might have to change statuses until someone is prepared to test it.

Thanks,

Michael

what i actually just did was change my repo to unstable.

this brought in an upgraded me-tv package and deps as follows:

Upgraded the following packages:
me-tv (0.5.33-3) to 0.7.16-1

Installed the following packages:
libgnome-vfsmm-2.6-1c2a (2.24.0-2)
libgnomecanvasmm-2.6-1c2a (2.22.0-1)
libgnomemm-2.6-1c2 (2.24.0-2)
libgnomeuimm-2.6-1c2a (2.24.0-2)
xine-ui (0.99.5+cvs20070914-2.1)

the issue does not exist in v0.7.16-1 so i'm rather pleased. 

thanks
Takis

fair point - blah... fine... i'll revert. 

i'll go back to 0.5.33-3 and remove the other deps it brought it.

i'll then remove ~/.me-tv and start over. then i'll play with
xine.video_driver value in the conf file.

one more thing... the only video driver available under preferences is
xshm. i noticed on 0.7 there were many others.

something strange has happened. it works. 

i wonder if using the latest, uninstalling etc left some config settings
floating around that sorted the issue. i did remove the ~/.me-tv dir
before starting again. 

suggestions on what to clean out and try again - otherwise, wanna close
it?

thanks
Takis
