Troubleshoot

My XBMC bugs on Delicious.

Freeze on Eeebuntu NBR 3.01

  • Eeebuntu NBR 3.01 - Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04 - Array Kernel 2.6.28-15 - XBMC v 9.04.1-jaunty1.
  • Freezes seems to be specific to Eeebuntu NBR 3, as reported here: [1], [2], [3]
  • Possible work-arounds:
    • Try stable platform as suggested in 2nd bug report above: Intrepid + intel xserver from xorg-edgers ppa + 2.6.28 kernel from jaunty + libpulse-dev + compiling XBMC from the SVN (slower GL than Ubuntu 9.04 though).
    • Try Eeebuntu NBR 2.0
      • Tried. The autoscan completes. But there are hick-ups reading the DVD (scene skip, roll-back). Need further testing to identify the causes. Rendering is not 100% smooth.

DVD Play-back hick-ups

  • Alien 4 Special Edition - Chapter 3 is played twice, then not possible to go backward (before 00:06:00)
    • Confirmed on Minimoy Samsung NC10 - Eeebuntu NBR 2.0 - XBMC v9.04.1-jaunty1.
    • Confirmed on Dell Latitude 620 - WinXP SP4 - XBMC 9.04.1 repack 2.
  • No problem with Alien 4 Theatrical Cut
    • Confirmed on Dell Latitude 620 - WinXP SP4 - XBMC 9.04.1 repack 2.

Slow connection to Samba share

  • First launch of XBMC, Source on samba share takes long time to connect (20 sec).
    • Confirmed on Dell Latitude 620 - WinXP SP4

XBMC menu showing up unexpectedly and taking focus

  • Sometimes the XBMC navigation menu shows up when moving the mouse, although the current title is a DVD menu.
  • Moreover the frustrating part is that when this menu is shown, it is not possible to click on the DVD Menu Item
