With version 0.9.12 of the plugin I get the following (Intel Celeron 433Mhz, output via OSS, black background) :
- Only stable when playing streams over network.

from harddrive which are "new" (ie. no id3-tag got scanned). The next time the song gets played it works, besides this :
- Frequent crashes when changing songs from harddrive (again, VDR takes
99% of CPU time),
AFAIS, the plugin got some ugly race conditions concering threads.
This might be possible, but I don't know how to debug this as nothing of it happens on my machine (playing a lot song from harddisc, right now for 6 hours continiously).
My suggestion is that somebody with that problem, please wait until vdr hangs with 100% cpu and then hook gdb to this process to see which thread it is and where it hangs.
I'm sorry, but I'm currently rather busy with other stuff, so that I cannot spent time on this myself. I'm be back on this in a week or two...
