XBMC Crashes/Problems

[Craig Whitmore]

Here is the dmesg and crashlog from xbmc tryuing to use crystalhd. I am
using the latest SVN from xbmc and the latest git from wilson.

I have tried a number of videos I have to test it..

I haven't looked at the code yet to see the problem..

Any ideas.. It seems that xbmc can't use the crystalhd stuff

XBMC Crash

http://jqd.org/pastebin?id=2855

[Scott D. Davilla]

opening new user[1] handle

Link invalid state notify mode 1

and

Firmware command T/O

XBMC never even got CrystalHD open and defaulted back to ffmpeg. This smells like the older crystalhd library that did multiple opens. new user[1] is a second open of the device. XBMC itself only open the device once at startup.

XBMC Crash

/usr/lib/libfaad crashed, that's audio, I also see lot's of errors in ffmpeg video decoder errors. The file looks like tv3-2.mpg is some sort of m2ts with h264 inside. Where does this file come from and what is the MediaInfo output. If ffmpeg can't handle this in software decode, there's no way crystalhd can handle it either.

only 1 version of the libraries on the machine (i've checked).. it can't
seem to use it properly when its actually playing the video.. only on
startup..

the video(s) come from New Zealand DVB-T broadcast which uses a mixture
of h264 video and mp2/LATM AAC audio.

Yes.. the version of ffmpeg and faad is quite old on xbmc. Much newer
versions of mplayer (using ffmpeg libs) play the file fine in software
fine (but VERY slowly) on this machine .

When I had windows on the machine.. the files played 100% fine using the
same crystalhd hardware but still failed on 1/2 of my test H264 DVB-T
broadcast tests). (my PS3 plays them all 100% except for the Audio which
it doesn't have LATM AAC support (yet))

Thanks
