I'm seeing an XBMC crash every time a video exits, whether it's at the end of the video or if I exit early. I can hit "Backspace" to get back to the video selection (with the current video still playing in the corner). But if I try to change videos, segfault. I've tried setting the Render method to both VDPAU and auto-select -- same behavior. And the type of video doesn't seem to matter either -- I've tried both DivX AVIs and x264 MKVs. Relevant info:

OS: Fedora 10 x86_64, kernel 2.6.29.3-60.fc10
Hardware: Pentium E5200, Gigabyte GA-E7AUM-DS2H w/ onboard GeForce 9400
NVIDIA driver version: 180.51
XBMC version: Tried both 9.04.1 and svn r20962
Skin: PM3.HD
Install method: Self compiled, "./configure --disable-pulse; make; make install" (Note: pulseaudio isn't installed)
Debug log: http://pastebin.com/f13815773
Backtrace: http://pastebin.com/f48fd17e6

Let me know if there's any info I left out or any patches you want me to try. Thanks!

the trick for me was to put automatic adjust refreshrate off, in the GUI video settings

i hope there's a fix for this because i want to use that option for automatic 24p output without crashes when exiting video.

dev/x is correct, I had the same problem. It's noted as a known issue. I wish they worked together too!

Are you referring to http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/6241 ? If so, that's supposed to be fixed in SVN. Also, I don't have "Adjust Refresh Rate" set. ISTM that this is something different. I'd be happy to try other config settings, though.

Thanks.

Yes, thank you allsouls. I recently went back to xbmc live 9.04.1 and that's where I'm experiencing it. I'll have to upgrade to the latest svn later.

Replying to myself, setting the following environment variable before launching XBMC fixes the crashing issue:

export SDL_AUDIODRIVER="alsa"

[rossgemuend]

ok, rebuilt with r21009 and it no longer crashes when I have both adjust refresh rate and vdpau enabled... but now my display changes whenever I start a video so that it only fills up the top left corner of the screen and it can't be calibrated. I've found two threads that appear to deal with the same issue so I figured I'd post them here in case it helps anyone else. I'll be testing these tonight after work

How can i switch to 1980x1080@24Hz (thread 1)
refresh rate problems (thread 2)

Update: issue resolved by deleting the hidden ~/.xbmc folder. Thank you search!
