[MP1-4578] Crashes after standby. (1 Viewer)

[killer8]

One thing I noticed since I installed the v4 fix. Sometimes when I resume the pc I see the desktop first for a couple of seconds(it isn't always the same, can be 1 second but also 8, but it can also go straight to mp) after that mediaportal comes up. When I see the desktop it's like mediaportal is minimized or invisible. Does anyone else see this behaviour after applying the fix? Previously it always resumed straight to mp and I never saw the desktop.

Yep i need to use the workaround to minimize (catch windows handle to properly send the resume message) and restore MP windows.
So yes it's normal that it happen but i only find this way to get the handle and focus lol.

 

[killer8]

Ah, that explains a lot. But why is it sometimes faster and sometimes slower. I mean sometimes it takes like 0 seconds and sometimes it's quite long(around 8 seconds or something).

I found a few errors in my log. One of them is an out of memory from my gpu but this isn't possible since i'm using a nvidia gtx 970 with 4gb gddr5, even with the 4k resolution i'm using this shouldn't be a problem I think. The error only occured once.

Here's the log:

We'll see if it happens again. I take a look at the resume tomorrow morning.

No problem this morning, the system resumed normally.

Don't know maybe it's because MP try to start D3D too soon and can lead to your error in the next post.
Maybe you could try to delay the resume (for ex 30 sec) to see what happen ?

I will give that a try.

Mediaportal crashed again this morning(log included). Atleast it had the rectangle in the upper left corner and mediaportal was invisible, I had to reboot my pc to get it working again(I use always in front so wasn't able to kill the process since it wasn't really crashed).

I'm thinking something has changed since I downgraded my bios yesterday to solve another problem(weird keyboard behaviour after standby sometimes and no audio over hdmi, however these 2 issues seems to be fixed with the older bios). Any recommended settings regarding standby in the bios which I can check? Mediaportal was quite stable before the downgrade for atleast one day.

Update: I tried to resume after about 5/6 hours(I think problems only occur when it slept for a while) and there was no problem this time.Only thing I noticed, the screen stayed black for quite a while before mediaportal showed up.

And again I had a problem where mediaportal was invisible. Error in the log is:

I will try if it gets better when I revert the v4 fix.

Update: same crashes in background without v4 fix however when it works it resumes nicely -> I don't see the desktop. But I will install the v4 fix again and see if I can get the crashes fixed

Update #2 Got another crash, I've enabled watchdog now so here is the zip.

 

[Sebastiii]

Try my own build too
You can reinstall 1.9 over it if needed, it should maybe fix the error :
TvPlugin.TVHome.TvDelayThread() .....

Hi,

Thank you for the reply @Sebastiii . I've not installed this version yet but I think I fixed the weird D3D errors by reinstalling http://install.team-mediaportal.com/DirectXRedist2010 Maybe it didn't lik e the bios downgrade. However I've only did this like 12 hours ago so it can also be coincidence and still give errors. I will keep this thread updated.
