XBMC Dharma on lucid crash, probably my fault
#1
Hi all,
I'm in need of some help here. I am using Dharma on a new miniman lucid install. All works fine, except it's very unstable when using the subtitles addons. What happens is when I chose the subtitles icon while watching an avi, it goes to pause and, sometimes, right before showing the script window, it crashes. It seems that if I let the movie go a little while before trying to access the script, it goes well. Seems to me the movie slows down a bit before xbmc crashes out.
I suspect a problem on my side because I ran the exact same install from another pc and I'm unable to replicate the problem. Still, the first box is my multimedia box and I must debug it somehow.
Here's the link to the gdb backtrace:

Thanks to all looking.

EDIT: the two machines have also another difference: the bugged one is running the install from a usb key with casper. The other one has the real filesystem running from an actual HD, so full r/w.

EDIT2: more proof xbmc is not reponsible: I run the same svn revision on another casper running install on the same machine, just using karmic instead of lucid. Doesn't happen there. Pity, because lucid starts way faster...

Hm that's strange. XBMC crashed as I had the message on my console. More, I used gdb with the core file it produced... What else should I do?

More info:

this is what I get in the terminal:

Quote:xbmc@xbmc:~$ xbmc
Running DIL (0.9.25) Version
DtsDeviceOpen: Create File Failed
ALSA lib pcm.c:7245Sadsnd_pcm_recover) underrun occured
ALSA lib pcm.c:7245Sadsnd_pcm_recover) underrun occured
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Crash report available at /home/xbmc/xbmc_crashlog-20100817_163545.log

Seems to me it crashed, right?
Those are both the xbmc produced crash log and the gdb output:

Thanks again for looking into this!

Upgrade again. There were some SSL dependencies removed and then readded yesterday (for python) and your crash looks to be in python when loading ssl.

Thanks.

Thanks. Sorry for being a little thick, but you mean upgrade my dharma svn or my lucid system?
