Trying to play video crashes out

[pancus]

First off let me say I've been quietly playing with the SVN builds and I'm floored at how fast this was developed. Good job!

I have been building this in Gentoo (I know it's not Ubuntu/officially supported) and everything has been working fine. Recently, in the last two weeks or so, trying to play any videos would make xbmc crash. The only error it would spit out is "Floating point exception". Everything else seems to work fine.

My system is a p4 2.8g, nvidia 6600GT and 1.5g of ram so it has enough juice. Any more info/tests you want me to run just ask.

On a side note I have to manually add -llzo2 as I don't think it's being detected, I used to have to add -lasound as well but that was fixed.

I compiled another version from the SVN and here's the strace -f

Did you do a make clean before you recompiled? If you did and it still crashes, please paste your xbmc.log, console log and the gdb backtrace of the crash.

Edit: Also make sure that the latest *.so files under system have been copied over.

[pancus]

For good measure I blew away everything and redownloaded the svn.

http://www.pagpaintball.com/tempfolder/xbmcdebug.bz2
http://www.pagpaintball.com/tempfolder/xbmc.log.bz2

I started xbmc, went straight to video and tried to play an avi. I'll get a backtrace on here when I get a chance.

Incidentally, I saw in the this in the svn log

fixed: correctly check for liblzo and not liblzo2 to prevent certain linking errors if only liblzo2 is found.

I only have lzo2 installed and it dies when compiling, so I edit the makefile and change -llzo to -llzo2, rerun make and it finishes fine.

[XyLo]

I have the same problem on Gentoo. I can compile XBMC without any modifications or problems when I _only_ have lzo 1.08 installed. If lzo 2.02 is installed the compilation fails with a reference error, without lzo 1.08 it already fails at configure. If I want to compile XBMC with 2.02 I have to use the -llzo2 trick mentioned by pancus.

I did a backtrace of XBMC compiled with 1.08 (without 2.02 installed), I hope I did it right:
http://rafb.net/p/Xx8Trn16.html

[pancus]

I just threw one up too.

http://rafb.net/p/bD7iPL45.html

Hope this helps.

[XyLo]

After taking a second look at the traceback I started fiddling around with the use-flags of libsdl. I added 'oss' and re-emerged libsdl, started XBMC and it gave me a green screen instead of the occasional segmentation fault. Doing a search for green screens directed me to this topic:
http://xbmc.org/forum/showthread.php...ighlight=green

The post by HendrikDK tells about the GeForce FX and the problems with it not being compatible. I happen to have a GeForce FX 5650 Go in the laptop I'm testing this on, so I tried the suggested 10133 revision. This revision gives me the usual segmentation fault instead of the green screen. I'm going to try if I got more luck with one of my desktops.

[pancus]

Unfortunately I still have this problem. I tried a few things to no avail, any advice on tracking this one down?

[hrak]

I have the same "Floating Point Exception" problem on Gentoo as the topicstarter. libsdl is already compiled with USE flag oss, so that doesn't fly for me. The crash happens in libasound, which probably expains why switching to oss fixed the problem for XyLo.

Piece of log and a backtrace can be found here: http://home.react.nl/~hans/xbmc/asound_crash.txt

[hrak]

Quick follow-up: For some strange reason compiling media-libs/alsa-lib with USE flag 'debug' solves the floating point exception. I have a working XBMC now

I'll look for an explanation later today!
