I have been a long time XBMC, MythTV user. I just did a clean install of XBMC "Frodo", connected to my Mythbackend just fine, and it works great. The only problem i'm seeing is that when a recorded tv show ends XBMC crashes to desktop.

Code:

Thanks for reporting.
This is fixed already in the current development build but not yet released.

Thanks, I built that module, and no more crashing Smile

nvm, figured it out, sorry.

While using the Betas of XBMC "Frodo" I had this problem. I followed the guide to build from source and it helped, but I ended up with a slightly different problem. I found that when a recorded TV episodes ends on its own, or if I try to delete an episode, that xbmc.bin process jumps to 100% for about one to three minutes, then mythbackend jumps to 100% for about 10 seconds. During this time the XBMC GUI is completely frozen. mythlogserver never goes above 2%.

This is quite a step up from having XBMC crash, but I'm wondering if there is a known bug "synchronizing" XBMC and MythTV. I also noticed that the XBMC GUI will seeminly lock up for a bit when I use the MythWeb interface to delete recordings.

I'm using Linux Mint 14 with MythTV .26 and XBMC "Frodo" RC2. I uninstalled XBMC and removed the .xbmc directory to start fresh on RC2 with the included PVR add-on but the problem persists.

Here's an excerpt from the xbmc.log file which shows what is logged before and after the GUI is frozen:

I'm having a very similar issue. Frodo RC3 and final with mythbackend .026 on ubuntu. We watch a recorded program and not long after the recording finishes, then UI will freeze up. We typically wait 5-7 minutes and then the UI comes back, with all the events from our keyboard firing and the EPG updating (like at startup).

Did you find a fix?

User 57826 · 2013-01-31, 09:51

Yes, upgrade XBMC and the myth-pvr add-on to the latest version.

sudo apt-get install xbmc-pvr-mythtv-cmyth

or you can build it from source
http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=PVR...FromSource

sfrooster · 2013-01-31, 21:41

What version are you running? I'm already on 1.0.0~git20132901.2244.96774c4-0precise

I honestly have no idea how to tell what revision/build of git source I'm running. I know its build 1.6.7 in the add-ons menu.

But I have not had this problem for a while, so I'm not sure how to help you further. When I read your post, I thought you were running RC3, so I assumed you just needed to upgrade.

If cfetzer reads this post again, you might want to upload some of your logs to help diagnose the problem.

Does anyone know how to tell what revision/build/version when building from git source?

sfrooster · 2013-02-04, 23:55

For what it's worth, this issue seems to have gone away for me.

And now it's back on two new boxes. I enabled the unstable branch and "installed" xbmc-pvr-mythtv-cmyth (it claimed I had the latest), but it must definitely hangs once a recording finishes (and I see an xbmc thread consuming 100%), until that thread resets.

You can try this. This is mostly from http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=PVR...FromSource

Terminal

Code:
cd ~

mkdir src

cd src

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras autoconf git

sudo apt-get install build-essential automake checkinstall

sudo apt-get install autoconf automake bison flex libtool intltool 

sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev libboost-filesystem-dev zip

git clone git://github.com/fetzerch/xbmc-pvr-addons.git

cd xbmc-pvr-addons

./bootstrap

./configure --enable-addons-with-dependencies

make clean zip

cp addons/pvr.mythtv.cmyth-linux-*.zip $HOME

sudo apt-get purge xbmc-pvr-mythtv-cmyth

XBMC

Code:
disable LiveTV

disable and uninstall the myth plugin

exit XBMC

Terminal

Code:
sudo mv /usr/lib/xbmc/system/libcmyth-x86_64-linux.so /usr/lib/xbmc/system/libcmyth-x86_64-linux.so.bak  <-- change x86_64 to which ever your file is called, mine is actually i486; you just want to back up the file.

rm $HOME/.xbmc/addons/packages/pvr.mythtv.cmyth-linux-x86_64.zip

XBMC

Code:
Go to the Add-ons section, install from Zip file

select your Home directory, then pvr.mythtv.cmyth-linux-*.zip file *= will be either x86_64 or i486; or which ever your system is compiled as.

The second Terminal section was stopping me from the updates working, if you want to go back to binaries you can delete these files:

Code:
disable LiveTV

disable and uninstall the myth plugin

exit XBMC

rm $HOME/.xbmc/addons/packages/pvr.mythtv.cmyth-linux-x86_64.zip

rm -fR $HOME/.xbmc/addons/pvr.mythtv.cmyth

sudo apt-get install xbmc-pvr-mythtv-cmyth

re-enable myth plugin in add-ons

Hope this helps.

Yep - that seems to have fixed it. Thanks!

It also seems that the "sticky" "Importing EPG..." message has gone. I don't know if they're related, but all the same...
