Right, now we're starting to get some of the info we need, thanks.More logs.
From the second set of logs, the tasty bit is:
It tells us MP is taken down by a crash in the Windows audio subsystem. The issue is probably due to the fact that video (and audio) is still streaming in MP when you turn the receiver off. I'd guess if you were stopping TV in MP before turning off the receiver you wouldn't have a problem."06/08/2013 21:51:10";"Application Error";"Application Crashing Events";"Error";"The description for Event ID '1000' in Source 'Application Error' cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display the message, or you may not have permission to access them. The following information is part of the event:'MediaPortal.exe', '1.4.0.16', '51c70fb1', 'wdmaud.drv', '6.1.7601.17514', '4ce7ba26', 'c0000005', '00003d48'";"1000"
Still waiting on these two things:
The timing and method you use to turn the TV and/or receiver off are crucial, so please don't skimp on the detail.So that we're all clear, can you please specify exactly what you do (ie. step by step) to reproduce the problem. Please be sure to specify if you're turning the receiver on/off while playing TV.
Also, if you haven't already checked please can you confirm if the same issue applies for TV, video and music.
What makes you say that?Fairly sure this has to do with the resizing of MP when AMP/TV is switched back on.
I would say that the resizing is due to the fact that the GPU driver via Windows notify MP when the display (ie. TV) resolution changes. In other words Windows will tell MP that a display resolution change has occurred, and so MP changes size. This is entirely normal.
I don't see what bearing this has on the crash except that the GPU driver via Windows also notifies MP when the receiver is turned off, and this is triggering MP to attempt to stop streaming TV (which may be the trigger for the crash).
One key point that you need to keep in mind is MP may not be able to stop streaming TV without crashing after you turn off the receiver. Equally MP may not be able to continue streaming TV without crashing after you turn off the receiver. Reason being, if the audio device (ie. the receiver) suddenly disappears in can be problematic in all sorts of ways on a system level.
So if you're going to bed and casually switching off the TV and receiver and expecting MP to just handle it... that may be unrealistic. Once again I'd like to point out that the detail about what you're doing and the sequence you're doing it in is crucial.
Matt, as much as I'm sure you mean well by your comment, it is actually a bit frustrating for me. I mean, how does that statement without any information about your setup, how you're reproducing the problem, or even proof that you do indeed have the same problem help us? I note I'm too lazy to help people who don't provide the details I need to help them!I have the exact same issue but have been too lazy to post logs.
