I built latest gotham on x64 linux PC. Played 'Alles is Familie'. Exactly the same behaviour as Pi. Single square displayed. Wouldn't respond to stop. Had to "kill -9" xbmc to recover.
This isn't something I can fix. I suggest to post in a general xbmc forum, or open a trac ticket.
Voyager1 is looking into this: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/4296
Cool! So entering my ticket for this issue triggered some interest in this issue, although my ticket itself was closed very fast.
I'll try to give the latest build a swirl tonight to test if the issue is 'solved'.
Thanks for pointing this out and incorporating the solution in your test builds...
Indeed I can confirm that the 'Alles is Familie' DVD is not crashing the PI anymore. What we got now is:
- When 'skip to main menu' is enabled (which is apparently the default value nowadays), it jumps right into the main menu. Perfect!
- When 'skip to main menu' is disabled, it still shows the black screen with the blue rectangle in the top-left corner, but after a little while (few secs) it exits into the XBMC menu where you started the movie, and -the cherry on the cake- get a nice brief popup in the bottom-right corner telling you that XBMC couldn't play the DVD Not perfect, but totally acceptable...
Thanks to all involved from one happy fellow!
