XBMC now crashes whenever I try to play a matroska (mkv) videofile.

The problem started after I installed the nvidia-180-libvdpau library on my non-nvidia system to get xbmc running again. Other than that I dont know.

(btw. Boxee works fine, but I prefer XBMC)

Hardware:
- GIGABYTE GA-EG45M-DS2H (motherboard)
- 3Ghz INTEL Core 2 Duo E8400
- 4GB RAM

HTPC is hooked up to a 42" Toshiba full-hd LCD TV trough HDMI. Resolution is fine (full HD). Sound working trough sp/dif.

Distro: Ubuntu 8.10, updated as of 2009-04-02
Architecture: i686
Install Method: PPA intrepid source
SVN Rev.: XBMC PRE-9.04 R19085

Debug Log:

Backtrace:
It crashes out to the desktop, so I tried this, but I cant seem to get a core dump. Cant find the file.

Matroska files worked fine earlier, before the nvidia stuff, but now it crashes XBMC. And I have tried several different files.

If you need anything else to help me figure this out, please tell me.

Thanks.

Start off by checking this post here:

Sticky: HOW-TO post about a problem in a useful manner

[abandonow]

Thanks, I should have seen that myself. I updated the first post now.

[Maxim]

Does the crash occur when you play files that aren't h264?

It might be helpful also to have a little bit of info about the file. MediaInfo is a very useful application for gathering this information.

[abandonow]

Great, thanks again. Updated the first post.

It seems that it only is matroska (mkv) files that makes XBMC crash.

[Maxim]

Yeah, I thought it might be directly related the VDPAU feature. That's why the AVI works fine because it's not using VDPAU. That's completely out of my realm though. There is a thread that is dedicated and probably has a bunch of info in it:

http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=45525

Don't double post but check that thread out in the mean time, probably someone will be able to help in a little while.

It happened after I installed nvidia library, to get xbmc to start. I dont have any nvidia hardware on my system.

Everything worked fine before nvidia-180-libvdpau got forced in as an dependency of xbmc.

Edit:
Im removing the dev version of XBMC and installing the stable one... at least that one works.
If anyone have a solution to my problem, please keep answering.

[Maxim]

Interesting, I hadn't noticed that you had said that there was no nvidia card in your system.

[CrashX]

Try latest build so that it includes the below change:

Revision 19139 elupus fixed: vdpau should (as help text says) default to off in configure ....

[abandonow]

Thanks for the help, looks like it is fixed.

But I actually think I will stick with the stable version for now, I just spent good amount of time setting up the library properly. The library was not backwards compatible (going from latest svn to stable).

[PainToad]

I can confirm this with my Intel GMA. Checking out latest SVN now.

[soder]

The same happens to me. I updated to the build 19239 and now when I start a movie it crash.

Is there anythink that I can do atm?

EDIT: With Render set to software instead of Auto it works. I guess its the hw-decoding that mix things up on non NVIDIA system.

+1
-I'm on a Intel 965 system, setting the renderer to software it works again.
