TSWriter deadlock potential fix. (1 Viewer)

Just updated to 1.5.0, which patch would you want me to test? (kinda lost track of all the patches in this thread)

Yeah, we really need to have everything in GIT branches, so we can merge/test. Maybe we already do have it.

Do we have a Jira for this as well?

Thanks.

So, where are we with this? All issues fixed? Any known issues? Any regression?

Now that 1.5.0 is released, would be good to know if we can plan to include this in 1.6.0.

I've been running - for regression testing mostly - the various patches for a while without any problems, so my take on it is that the latest version is looking pretty good (I think mm has cracked it this time), but 2 weeks or so of test running is not really long enough for a final answer (given that the lockup problems have been fairly random occurances for some users).

 

[Owlsroost]

I'm going to update to the final version tonight any chance to get the patch for that version?

Attached are patched TvService.exe and TVLibrary.dll binaries for MP 1.5.0 Final TV server. You must also use the TsWriter.ax from here - https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/attachments/tswriter_mm_deadlock_v5_-mp_1-5pr-zip.136154/ - or the attached 'TsWriter_MP15x_EXP_Owlsroost_2' version (which has other experimental bug fixes/reworks included in addition to the deadlock fixes - use at your own risk...)

Please note - I haven't had time to test these yet, so make backup copies of the original files before replacing them with the patched versions.....

I have installed both of your zips on my productive system and will also look if I can see any regression

Hi,

I'm also testing all your zips. I will update the forum if something goes wrong.

Thanks for making the update.

Ok, I'll be testing the mm v6 tvservice.exe/tvlib.dll and the v5 tswriter

35 downloads of the MP 1.5.0 Final binaries so far - good

Looks like there is some kind of alternate manifestation of the issue.
