@popcornmix do you have some time to look into the resolution switch issue with video playlists and 3D movies? Or tell me what debug info you need - here is a debug log ( http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=277676 ) using a playlist with 3d, 2d, 3d, 2d movies.

It's on my list to investigate, but there's a few things ahead of it. Hopefully soon...

thanks - only wanted to know if you gonna look at it - no pressure. Just ping me if you want me to test something or need further debugging info

Played 2 diffrent sd channels and 1 hdtv channel and all was using dvdplayer.

This is the issue:

Code:

20:51:30 116.395012 T:2725516368  NOTICE: COMXPlayer::CreatePlayers OMXPlayer unsuitable due to video codec

I suspect this is due to the PVR client and the fast channel change patch where we can actually start playing before the codecs are known (only once a video packet is seen we initialise the video decoder) which avoids the usual delay while probing for audio/video formats.

I think it makes more sense to treat no codecs at all as supported rather than unsupported, which will make omxplayer get chosen in future.

Thanks for fixing ! Working again in latest build

Should this firmware fix the issue with fanart not reloading for the currently selected item when stopping a movie?

Should this firmware fix the issue with fanart not reloading for the currently selected item when stopping a movie?

Not that I'm aware of. The issue observed was when caching an image to the thumbnail cache (i.e. the first time it ws viewed) was producing an error and falling back to the non-accelerated code path. I believe it would have still worked, but been much slower.

I've not seen the problem with fanart not reloading after stopping. Can you provide more details and perhaps a debug log file?

[Mafarricos]

On #0824 and #0827 noticed that some addons doesn't update, and when forced to update xbmc just hangs... I'm able to reboot via ssh.

Addons like keymap editor (program) and legendasdivx.com (subtitles) both in official xbmc repo.
Those 2 addons have been updated but aren't able to update, probably a problem related with segfault problem?

Already checked logfile and didn't saw nothing special, will provide latter if necessary.

Edit:
Probably a problem with xbmc server?
Now I got this on logfile:
http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=278542
Can this be caused by other thing?

Yes, the xbmc mirrors are down right now, which is the problem you are most likely seeing.

Thanks for letting us know your reboot loop is fixed.

Steps To Reproduce.
1. Start a movie from the library.
2. Stop the movie
It takes you back to the movie list however the fanart for the currently highlighted film is not reloaded.
Moving up or down will show the correct fanart, however highlighting the original item that i just stopped will not reload the fanart.
Going into the info and choose fanart does not show the preview of the current fanart or poster either.
Choosing a different film and stopping that will move the problem to that film. The first film will now show proper fanart but the one i just stopped will not.
See Video Below

Here is the debug log

at about 15:37:14 is where i stopped the video and it loads the poster but not the fanart.

This is Amber? Does it also occur with Confluence?

[Milhouse]

@bagofcrap24: Can you reproduce with stock Confluence (I can't). Assuming you don't see the same issue with Confluence, it's most probably a skin issue/bug. Do you also see this problem with 4.0.7/4.1.4?

Edit: I'm too slow...

Edit2: Just tested with Amber and unable to reproduce (I tested with all of the movie library views). Maybe some issue with Textures13.db/caching?

[bagofcrap24]

Sorry. Should have really used confluence for debugging but yes. The behavior is exactly the same

---

This wasnt here in 4.0.7
I did a clean wipe when I jumped from 4.0.7 to your test build 15th august. I've had the issue in all builds since. I'll try 4.1.5 now

[Milhouse]

Assuming it's not also an issue in 4.1.5, the next step would be to work back through these test builds to try and determine when the problem first appears (which is tedious, I know, but necessary).

Edit: Actually, working back through these builds would be a good idea whether the issue is present in 4.1.5 or not, as 4.1.5 is based on Gotham not master and it could be a change added to master. Though as I can't reproduce and nobody else has mentioned it, I'd be more inclined to think it's a glitch with the caching.

[bagofcrap24]

arrggh, cant test 4.0.7 or 4.1.5 without starting fresh because my first DB version with your test build is already higher than they are using XD.

I'll see if I can track it down

Forgot about my 2nd pi that my dad uses. That has older dB's on it so I'll check with that one.

Updated to same build on his b that is on my b+ and error is repeatable.
Will work my way backwards to find when it works

[bagofcrap24]

Ok, so it still does it on 4.0.7

there must be something wrong with my setup
