Yes, I'm still using Frodo 12.3 (Hydra Build on Pivos DS Media Play), for reasons having to do with (Mac OS X) AFP connectivity. It has been perfectly stable for me until today, and suited my needs just fine.
Suddenly, I'm noticing two major issues:
1) Getting movie information is frequently – tho not always – resulting in an immediate crash. It seems to happen only to movies I've added in the past 4-6 months. Not to older movie additions, and not to TV shows, whether added recently or not. It's hard to detect a pattern. Some of the new additions crash every time I try. Others work sometimes and not other times. It seems to matter how long I let XBMC idle after reboot before I attempt this. (suspicion: there is some problem with background python threads going on, see logs.)
Logs of 3 sample attempts. Portions from "pressed, action is Info" to end of log only.
Note: there is plenty of capacity on userdata storage. It's on a microSD card on this box, and I'm using only 4GB of 29GB of userdata. There's also plenty of capacity on the internal storage (<20% used).
2) I'm now unable to access the XBMC Add-On.org add-ons through the manager. Doesn't show any installed, force refresh with no results. Did the server suddenly go dark? Could that relate to problem #1?
Thanks.
PS: I'm aware of the Pivos forums BTW. I just have never found them anywhere near as helpful as here.
