Surprisingly, in most cases when I had luckily managed to kill the VLC process before my system fell frozen, and I started VLC a second time to watch DVB-T, it operated stable. Not always, but in about 80 - 90 % of the cases. Maybe this helps to locate the cause of this bug. Maybe it is not a driver issue at all but a VLC issue, but I don't know.
What does not make a difference is when I simply terminate a healthy VLC process and restart the application. Then the bug reappears as usual. VLC had to have crashed before it performs in a stable way. This is just an observation of mine. I wouldn't go as far as to say this is a sure indicator of some underlying principle of the bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/773768 Title: Need firmware for AfaTech AF9015 DVB-T stick with TDA18218 tunerchip To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware-nonfree/+bug/773768/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
