I have just run a fresh install on a media PC that was previously running Frodo - updated to Gotham 13.1 using XBMCbuntu

Now, when i try to playback, XBMC crashes & returns to the homescreen

Looking at the log, it shows something about MSGQ not initialised??
Any assistance appreciated, Thanks in advance

This is from the XBMC log when trying to playback a file

[fritsch]

Thx for cutting the Debug Log.

[kryten2b]

Sorry Fritsch, not sure what you mean?
Are you saying thanks because i only pasted the relevant bit or thanks for missing out the relevant bit?

If there is another bit you need, please advise?

He's being sarcastic, he wan't the debug part of the log.

[kryten2b]

Thanks, I realised that after I posted the question.

I powered up & set debug, then tried to play - XBMC crashed & reloaded, so i have a crashlog, the old log (where i hit play while in debug) & the current log, where it restarted:

Debug log:
http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=235332

XBMC log after restart:
http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=235339

Crash Log:
http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=235340

Apologies for not pasting these first - I have been using XBMCbuntu for a while, but never needed to submit the logs before

^^ use the forum search. Additionally disable VDPAU and also VAAPI, you cannot use them anyways. What you can do is enabling multi core decoding in the same Video -> Acceleration submenu.

[kryten2b]

sorry, can you expand - search for what exactly - I don't understand the problem? When I installed it as Frodo, it worked out of the box, so what do i need to change?

[kryten2b]

So assuming you mean change it to s/w rendering in video acceleration & disable everything else? I tried in video acceleration, I have gone through all the permutations & same result.

This worked fine in Frodo?.

[fritsch]

Yeah - Frodo also supported windows xp ...
Edit: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...pid1731804 additionally under Video Output choose "Software"

[kryten2b]

So I have added the 'export' line to my /usr/bin/xbmc-standalone script

# the Free Software Foundation, 675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA.
# http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html

export MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=3.0
prefix="/usr"
exec_prefix="${prefix}"
bindir="${exec_prefix}/bin"

Under Video Settings > Acceleration, I have also set Render method & Decoding method to Software, with allow Multi-threaded support.

I can't see any option for software under Video Output though??

Anyway, after a reboot, same problem try to play a video & XBMC crashes/restarts

[kryten2b]

Hi, any further ideas/suggestions? Thanks
