Re: [vdr] frequent xine crashes with vdr

2010-08-17 Thread martinez
Hi Reinhard,

Unfortunately I can not reproduce it anymore, because in the meantimeI 
installed a newer version of xine-lib and the problem disappeared.
What I notice is that using vdpau, on 28e BBC HD for example drops many frames 
(unwatchable, although cpu load remains low), whereas using xv the same 
channels plays perfectly
(although ITV1 HD even using xv drops some frames)
So for me it is xv for now as vdpau does not seem quite mature

Regards,

Art

I read a lot of complaints about BBC HD.  That surely appears to be a
problem channel.  However, vdpau is working great for many users,
hopefully soon you'll be able to join us. ;)

BBCHD works perfectly with vdpau here, they changed the codec around 
last June, but the vdpau developers fixed it.

Make sure you're using the hg repository for xine 1.2
http://hg.debian.org/hg/xine-lib/xine-lib-1.2

(though I last updated it last June).

Bye

Hi,

Am 15.08.2010 11:21, schrieb marti...@embl.de:

 I start vdr and xine and all looks nicely and I zap channels a couple of
 times without problems and the 3rd time or so xine freezes and I need to
 restart it

Which video output driver do you use? vdpau?

Would you be so kind a supply a backtrace of xine when the freeze
occurs? Run

gdb xine `pidof xine`

and then at the gdb prompt:

thread apply all bt

Please make sure to have debug symbols installed so that the
backtrace shows reasonable function names and source locations.

 Could someone point out what is the likely culprit? Does vdr+xine run
 stable on 64 bits?

I think so.

 uname -r  2.6.34-ARCH

rni...@corei7:~ uname -a
Linux corei7 2.6.34-12-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT 2010-06-29 02:39:08
+0200 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I'm running openSUSE 11.3.

BTW: I've noticed a similar behaviour on my system since a few
days but I haven't managed to collect a backtrace though, because
xine-lib resolved the freeze on it's own.

Bye.

Re: [vdr] frequent xine crashes with vdr

2010-08-15 Thread Timothy D. Lenz
I am using Debian Lenny x64. The problems I see, I also see on my dad's 
x32 system and have to do with problems between xine and vdpau, such has 
when signal is corrupt vdpau messes with frame size and xine doesn't 
seem to know how to deal with that. I also see the random lockups others 
have reported where vdr buffer goes to 100%. Sometimes it clears and 
sometimes it doesn't. That seems more likely to happen when changing 
channels are using on screen menus. Video also sometimes goes into a 
sort of freeze frame/slow motion and changing channels fixes that.

It used to work fine, only 3 things have changed: 64 bits os instead of
32, a newer kernel, and using the kernelĀ“s driver for my card (S2-HD-NOVA)
instead of the liaplinĀ“s ones
