hi,
something to dropped frames during 1080i:
i have tested same hardware with vista und mp 1.0.2. (that i can be sure my core i3 is not the reason ;-) ) this is working mutch better. 40 dropped frames / hour. and no issues in live tv.

 

[fmulders]

When stopping a recording, not possible to start a new one!

please state what kind of schedule type u r recording.
Where u start it (in what context).
Wehre u stop it (in what context).

does it happen all the time or only sometimes ?
did u verify the the recording is indeed stopped when looking at the setuptv app ( manual section) ?

/gibman

I found what caused it! I added a Hybrid card and forgot to set it like that.
I corrected that now and can not reproduce anymore.

But!



When I start a recording like this.

• Selecting a program from the guide and than push record button on my MS remote.
• Answer the popup question by selecting "1-current show"
• The program lites up in the guide and I can see it is recording in the manual section of TV-setup.
• Now I select the recording show in the guide again and push the record button again to stop it!
• I can see, in the manual section, it stopped recording.
• Now it is not possible to start a new recording anymore, I need to reboot MP to get it running again.
• (restart TV-service did not help)

Here are my logs

Re: Mp crashing in unknown pattern.

Hi thanks for the bug report.

0002689: teletextpagerenderer null pointer exception. - MediaPortal Bugtracker
fixed and committed to svn.

could u try this simple patch in the mean time.
All it does is to protect itself from a null pointer exception in pageBitmap.

teletextpagerenderer.cs

    public void RenderPage(ref Bitmap pageBitmap, byte[] byPage, int mPage, int sPage)
    {
      int col;
      int hold;
      int foreground, background, doubleheight, charset, mosaictype;
      byte held_mosaic;
      bool flag = false;
      bool isBoxed = false;
      byte[] pageChars = new byte[31 * 40];
      int[] pageAttribs = new int[31 * 40];
      bool row24 = false;

      if (pageBitmap == null)
      {
        return;
      }

      ....

Hi.

Here is logs about crash. Mp is in normal use: zapping, using teletex,
some channels might have had normal dvb subtitles.

I hope logs have catched some clues, as these few things that dev's wanted us to
look at in first page of this therad are quite new, i mean Mp has been more stable
about a month ago. Now this crash happens totally without any certain behavior i do.
Sometimes it crashes just after i've rebooted and started to watch first channel after reboot.
Sometimes it happens only after using teletex and few hours later. No pattern how to make it happen.

I'm sorry not been able to help more. My system specs are just below my avatar.


regards

EDIT:

Just happened again. And log shows the same as attaced log:

2010-02-07 12:48:10.601994 [ERROR][Teletext Updater(36)]: MediaPortal: Unhandled exception occured
2010-02-07 12:48:10.674998 [ERROR][Teletext Updater(36)]: Exception ystem.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null.

That's killing my Mp

I looked a code a bit and i don't understand how that image variable could be null as it is created few lines above hmm...

Maybe if this RenderPage is called twice in a row before previous call has not ended.

Hi

Your fixchanged behavior, but still teletex crashes Mp. New logs attached.
Exception is now different.

It crashes on UnLockMemoryImageTexture in same(i guess) renderpage function that calls
MediaPortal.GUI.Library.GUIImage.UnLockMemoryImageTexture.

EDIT:
It seems to me that this happens after teletext has been used and then i exit teletex. Not allways at first time but second
I usually read teletext news from two channels and after i exit teletex, this crash happens.

Could it be that teletext updater thread is still kicking pages, even though other resources have been disposed allready for
receiving pages.

Re: Mp crashing in unknown pattern.

Please try the attached patch.

I think it lacks thread safety.

Re: MediaPortal SVN-Snapshot:-02-06-2010 13-59h - Revision:24975.rar

Can I provide more info on this to get it in the bug tracker? Here is a 1 minute test file which displays wrongly:

www.domsyard.com/test-001.mkv

More info related to the following problem here...

www.makemkv.com • View topic - Extra aspect ratio flag

Looks like its MediaPortal not make MKV.

When playing back MKVs MediaPortal seems to the 'Original Display Aspect Ratio' flag rather than the 'Display Aspect Ratio' flag causing video to be displayed at the wrong aspect. File plays back at correct aspect ratio in VLC, WMP and MPC-HC. Tried different decoders in MP with no effect. Below is the MediaInfo from a problem file. Files without the 'Original Display Aspect Ratio' play back correctly.

@gibman
even with cat 10.2 RC2 ZDF HD, ARD HD and Arte HD are still blocky heavy stuttering and not viewable. Have you tested the .ts file i've uploaded?

Also i cnanot access the video acceleration settings with dxvachecker anymore since 10.2 :-(

For me it is exactly the same. Just ried the same 10.2 RC2 driver and I still have blocky HD picture.
However, I would like to add that it is not 100% for me. That means sometimes one HD channel plays fine but after a channel change, the same channel is not watchable any more. So I still assume a problem within MP...

Has anybody checked my TS file that I have uploaded into the DVB-S folder?

Just my two cents ont this:

I allso had these problems using win7 and the ATI 10.1 driver package, and this SVN 24975 and allso with SVN 24923.
Indeed allways in ARD HD stuttering and dropping frames.
But now I switched back to SVN 24669, and I it is haven't experienced it anymore. In fact switching channels HD and SD has never been more stable. Using PowerDVD codecs.
But I agree that this is probably not the best driver package from ATI for my videocard. I cannot really put my finger on it, but I constantly have the impression that it produces a (too) high intense and not really sharp image on my (LCD) TV.

are you able to play ARD HD / ZDF HD with old SVN and MS DTV Win7 codec?
