I looked - there isn't one I don't think. I never get the OS 'your app has crashed' message as I have to hard reset it, so I'm not sure it ever reports an actual crash with XBMC.
The last log in /Users/Soul/Library/Logs/CrashReporter is from April 10th, so nothing for tonight.

Hey. I already had a look in there as well. Only 1 file, from earlier on in the evening:
AppleVNCServer_2010-04-18-192636_localhost.crash
So don't think that's related as I assume I'd be getting one every time I get it to hang?
Cheers,
Justin

Hey Davilla,
The mac mini is an early Intel one, used to be a 1.5 core solo that now runs a 2.16 core2duo. It's connected by a DVI-HDMI cable to an Onyko A/V receiver.
I have to use the video calibration to shrink the display to fit the plasma, as there is some overscan (if I turn overscan off the display is far too small).
What else would you like to know?
Thanks,
Justin

Hmm I do everything via universal remote. So normally the receiver is set to standby when the mini is put to sleep and vice-versa.
However when I was testing last night I was just putting the mac to sleep and waking it up, with the receiver and tv left on at all times. I could still make it crash quite easily.

Any more ideas Davilla? Currently I'm working round it by putting XBMC into window mode when shutting down and fullscreening after it wakes up.
Cheers,
Justin
