Hi there,

I have a problem with my XBMC running on Ubuntu 13.04 64-bit.
Problem is any video I try and play in a certain directory (Downloads) fails to open. Files in other directories, or in a subpath of Downloads work fine.

XBMC is installed via PPA. Version info in the log file.

Full debug log attached:

You can see that an exception occurs on line 253.

I noticed it may be something related to subtitle parsing, so I've included the list of files in that directory:

Thanks.

Let me

installed via PPA? then why do you run RC3 frodo? Please update to 12.2 and retest.

Ah sorry, I forgot to update since reinstalling my system recently.

Problem still occurs in 12.2.

it borks while searching for subtitles of /mnt/RaidStore/FileDump/Downloads/Jarhead 2005 - BluRay 576p DD5.1 x264-DNK.mkv

This should already be fixed in master(nightlies)

Sorry, that wasn't it.
I can remove that file from the directory and the playback problem still occurs for every file in /mnt/RaidStore/FileDump/Downloads.

However, I believe I have found the cause of the issue. I took another look at that last log file, and came across the following at line 168:

Code:
51:59 T:140478898972544   DEBUG: CGUIMediaWindow::GetDirectory (/mnt/RaidStore/FileDump/Downloads/)

51:59 T:140478898972544   DEBUG:   ParentPath = [sources://video/]

51:59 T:140478898972544   ERROR: GetDirectory - Unhandled exception

51:59 T:140478898972544   ERROR: GetDirectory - Error getting rar://%2fmnt%2fRaidStore%2fFileDump%2fDownloads%2fimaginations.rar/

Which I traced back to the file imaginations.rar, which is a password-protected rar archive. When I removed that file from the directory the issue stopped occurring.

So I'm guessing that XMBC's archive handler doesn't support passworded rars properly?

Let me know if any more information is needed from me to fix the bug Smile

This exception might need to be handled a bit better indeed Smile

Thanks for reporting back.
