[vdr] Re: [ANNOUNCE] vdr-xine-0.4.3 plugin



Hi,

vdr-xine works very nice here, I can just watch tv like in mplayer or DVB
Windows apps, however, I found way to crash vdr with vdr-xine.

When I am in playback mode I can put mark ("0"), then with "7" and "9" keys I
move to previous/next mark. Sometimes it works, but very often when I press 7
to jump - vdr crashes (segfault). It works correctly with softdevice plugin, so
it is vdr-xine related.

Is it known problem?
No.

What information should I give to help fixing it?
Well, as VDR crashes (maybe due to a bug in vdr-xine), I think that a backtrace would be most helpful.
Perhaps a hint from softdevice could be helpfull too.
While working on StillPicture ( .. ) to get cut-mark-jumping and moving
work, I had similar segfaults too. To resume correct playing after such a
jump/move I have to clear the input and decoders buffer. This clear operation has to
be locked against buffer access from other threads.
Well, clearing the buffers is entirely done in xine and I never had a crash like that while implementing and testing the cut-mark-jumping. So far this has been the only report of such a problem.

Anyway, thank you very much for your hint.

Bye.
