Hello,
System information
XBMC 13 Gotham
Linux Mint 13 Maya (= Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS, Precise Pangolin)
Arch: i686
Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-61-generic #93-Ubuntu SMP Fri May 2 21:33:33 UTC 2014
CPU: Intel Core2Duo
GPU: nVidia 8400M, official drivers v296
Problem description
When I try to read any video, XBMC crashes or freezes completely. After an investigation of the logs, XBMC faces an issue when HW rendering is activated
On my system, no HW rendering is available (no VDPAU or VAAPI), but it is enabled in the options. If I disable HW rendering and choose SW rendering instead (including multi-threading or not), it works perfectly. I suspect that if no HW rendering is available, XBMC is not able to fall back on the SW rendering.
Note that it was working perfectly with XBMC 12.
