Regular crashing MP 1.5 (1 Viewer)

[hucknallred]

Hi

I've been having frequent MP crashes since going to 1.4/1.5, it's hard to pin down what triggers it, but it does seem to be when starting playback of recorded TV.

I did a total uninstall, then a fresh 1.5 install, but still crashing.

I've attached logs from latest crash.

I use Argus as TV server with the MP client plugin. I've had a quick scan, can't see anything that stands out, but I did notice MP-TV Series is scanning for new media every 5 minutes, which I'll change.

Hope someone can help, many happy years of use & support on here.

Looks like a hard-crash since there are no errors in MP logs but only in Windows Event log.

If it's related to playback maybe you can try different codecs?

Thanks, will try that.

This rings alarm bells for me:

Happens not too long before the crash:

Had crashes on a daily basis, combined with sound going first... An update of the AMD drivers seems to have cured things now. Thanks for spotting that.
