Hi list,
After updating to 1.3.28 yesterday, I'm seeing strange VDR hangs today. Same machine, same plugins and patches worked flawlessly on 1.3.27 before.
There were recordings running, and I was going through menus that time, when VDR suddenly did not respond to key presses any more. VDR died because of watchdog, but required an additional kill -9 to be stopped and re-started. As another hint, that time VDR was running with >50% CPU load.
Next time this happens, I hope I can do some more analysis.
Any one else having problems? _____________________________
Incident 1: One recording running on secondary device. 22:18:52 vdr[948]: deleting timer 16 (6 2010-2225 'Filme~Enigma - Das Geheimnis')
22:18:59 vdr[948]: switching to channel 8 22:20:40 vdr[1354]: connect from 192.168.73.1, port 2075 - accepted 22:20:43 vdr[948]: PANIC: watchdog timer expired - exiting! 22:22:36 vdr[1526]: VDR version 1.3.28 started
The 'connect' is my attempt to connect via control-plugin, but control-plugin was frozen same as the remote. The recording continued (file time) until 22:22:26.
Incident 2: Two recordings running, one on primary, one on secondary. Transfer mode streams another channel from secondary to primary device.
23:12:46 vdr[1526]: switching to channel 173 23:12:51 vdr[1526]: switching to channel 7 23:12:52 vdr[1657]: cDolbyRepacker: skipped 576 bytes to sync on next AC3 frame 23:14:25 vdr[1526]: PANIC: watchdog timer expired - exiting! 23:17:17 vdr[1714]: VDR version 1.3.28 started
The recordings continued until 23:17:03 and 23:17:12.
Cheers,
Udo

Is this an NPTL system? Does it also happen with plain vanilla VDR?

Kernel 2.4, DVB driver 1.0.x branch of 2005-01-30. No NPTL of course.
More hints as soon as I understand whats triggering this. I hope to gdb into the running process next time it happens.
Cheers,
Udo
