Now over to business.
Two days ago, I noticed a huge memory leak in xbmc - also it would crash everytime I exited.
Now I've located the source of the bug in your addon, sorry. :/

As soon as I activate Depth Inf. in polling method for network shares, XBMC will eventually chug 3GB of RAM. I now have it set on Depth 2, and everything works OK.
This happens on both my computers with xbmc. and they are both running Windows 7 with XBMC 12.1 and Watchdog 0.74.

Do you want a debug log?

Cheers,
Valfar.

EDIT:
Here the complete log (deleted breaking Bad this time):
http://pastebin.com/MQedRz2Z

Also I noticed that sometimes the plugin omits my folder "TV Shows" according to the log. Switching the scanning depth forth and back and rebooting fixed it.

EDIT2:
It seems the problem that the script omits "TV Shows" happens everytime after the ERROR mentioned before. You can see that also in the log (no more log lines "Using authentication ur" for TV Shows after the ERROR).

What version are you using? That should have been fixed not so long ago.

It already does

Initially when I first setup XBMC, Watchdog will work and play nicely with my other Video Add-Ons such as 1Channel. At some point with no warning or traceable cause Watchdog interferes somehow with the add-ons. If I try to launch 1Channel (or any other) it will just come up with a blank screen most of the time. When or if it does load the initial screen after some minutes, trying to select something goes no where. As soon as I uninstall Watchdog the problems are resolved and I am able to navigate the add-ons with no delay and begin watching a show or movie.

Initially I thought this was just a problem with my Windows HTPC, but since I have now seen the same problem on the G-Box's running both Android and Linux I can only assume there is something wrong or conflicting.

I've tried uninstalling Watchdog, and removing the Watchdog folder from the PC and replacing it with the same files from another HTPC and then re-installing Watchdog, but the problem is still there. I cannot use any video add-ons with Watchdog installed and it is driving me crazy trying to figure out what is causing it.

I have done some searches on Google, but I have not found any other reports of what I am experiencing - at least not with the search strings I have used.

Is this a known issue, is there a fix, or has anyone else had the same problem and been able to fix it somehow such that video add-ons will work with Watchdog installed?

Known issue without a solution? I am helpless without watchdog, so what do you recommend? Searching at depth 2 doesn't find anything.

Cheers

I have put the setting "Folder contains" to "None" and also ticked the checkbox "Exclude selected folder from scans".
I can see in the log that this addon is still iterating through the "Documentaries" folder: http://pastebin.com/dMvweNrp
Could you point me to the code please where that filter is applied? I am interested in it cause I want it for another plugin also. Thank you. Maybe for some reason I am really using an outdated version?

Yes, I don't see that being the problem I have though, Or were you responding to someone else's post?

(2013-04-09, 21:26)OtisPresley Wrote: I created that script with a valid network path in it as a startup script in autoexec.py and thought it had fixed it at first, because things were working after I installed Watchdog. After a reboot, however, it was back to the old issue for me.

EDIT: The debug logs do not show any errors, but the log is constantly scolling OpenDir messages from Watchdog's polling. It just takes over a minute and a half to display the first menu in any plugin:
