Hello,

I recently isntalled the newest flavor of xbmc on both my mac laptop and windows 7 x64 desktop...with media companion i downloaded all the episode information etc...which put those files in the directories of the shows and movies...once all that was downloaded i then told xbmc where the tv libraries and movie libraries are (both NAS)...on the mac everything works like a charm, loads up shows me new shows etc...but on the windows machine it seems to choke and crash once i go to browse any show

the reason for the title of episode limit is i have over 190 shows archived which amounts to 13,000+ episodes.

I understood his question fine. He has a huge library of TV Shows that work fine on his Mac, but do not work when he tries to watch them on his Windows Machine. He's asking if XBMC has a limit to the number of shows when running on a Windows box.

I personally don't know the answer, but I'm sure as heck not going to be a jerk about the way someone asks a question. I'd appreciate it if you would do the same.

imtammer, I hope you find an answer.

No limit that I know of. How about enabling debug, recreating the issue that causes the crash and then posting the resulting log file.

Except you.

Last time I checked ellipsis was a form of punctuation, not proper, but definitely keeps it from being a typical run-on sentence.

Note FishOils' reputation - this is is m.o. - post a snide remark and be of little help.

@imtammer - post the debug log and it should be pretty easy to troubleshoot.

imtammer, ditto what stoli said. Also, if you need help figuring out how to post a debug log, check my signature and click the link on how to post windows problems.

[imtammer]

thankyou for all the help despite FishOil's troll-ish response.

Nate, I was following the instructions on your sig-link to get the debug log, however when i go to click settings it crashes again. I will continue to try, however should i be doing something else instead?

and the last 3 lines of xbmc.log are:


17:45:17 T:2264 M:2065833984 ERROR: exception in CApplication::FrameMove()

17:45:26 T:2264 M:2084159488 ERROR: CApplication::FrameMove(), too many exceptions


there are rar errors as well right above those lines:

[blacklist]

It looks like you may have some corrupt files? Have you tried moving those Boston Legal files outside the scanned directory and seeing if that fixes the issue?

[stoli]

Another guess is the path may be too long for the rar files. Try blacklist's suggestion and scan again. This time paste your entire log file to pastebin.com and then post the url after you have submitted that.

[imtammer]

i can assure you i have directories with far longer paths....monty pythons flying circus springs to mind, and it hasnt an issue with those...the other strange thing is the mac has NO issue with any of these, be it path issues or rar module issues.

either way here is the pastebin log link:

http://pastebin.com/2g745we7

[stoli]

Doesn't look like debug was enabled, but it also doesn't look like that machine likes your paths:

Error getting smb://KHEMT/Videos/Public/TV/Boston Legal/
Error getting rar://smb%3a%2f%2farchive%2fvideo%2fT.......

the end of the log is filled with those errors.
