Linux ProjectM crashes kodi while playing music
#1
Hello everybody !

I get an issue while using Kodi and playing music with Projectm visu. It works fine for a little while (near 8 to 10 seconds), and it crashes, restarting kodi

- Using Xubuntu LTS 16.04 (had to move projectm directory as advised here. )
I had to execute that code :
Code:
sudo mv /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/addons/* /usr/lib/kodi/addons/
- And Kodi 16.1 Jarvis

Does anybody get the same issue, and successfully fixed it ?

here is my crash log (Or I think it is ...)

Install gdb (sudo apt-get install gdb) then crash Kodi again and you should get a backtrace in the crashlog. Post it to pastebin or the like and post the URL here.

Hi black_eagle, and thanks for replying.

As you said, I did it again (lol oops) ahem...

here is the pastebin :

http://pastebin.com/eLCHygpc

I forgot to precise that I'm right now using the Nebula theme for Kodi, and I've just tried with Confluence, it seems to be working...

Ok it does not appear in the logs, but it still crashes with Confluence, my mistake... but it crashes always when I'm navigating in menus.

Can you post a link to your crashlog (crashlog will be in your home directory & starts kodi_crashlog) after you installed gdb. Kodi will automatically use gdb to produce a backtrace of itself when it crashes which is in the crashlog.

Also, you didn't enable debug logging in your previous log. See debug log (wiki) if you're unsure how to do this.

without backtraces nobody will be able to help you with anything. i did improve a nasty threading situation (not completely resolved apparently) in projectm add-on about a week ago.

Hi ironic_monkey, I've made a new crash log pastebin, click HERE.

It seems to be more stable in "medium quality" (in projectm parameters) sounds like a drivers problem isn't it?

Here is the crash log when "medium" graphic configuration is selected in ProjectM parameters : CLICK HERE

Many thanks for help !

Hmmm, you don't appear to have gdb installed (see my post above). Ironic_monkey will probably be able to help (as the vis stuff are his babies) but not without a proper backtrace.

If you have installed gdb properly then the crashlog should look similar to this (but much longer !!)
