OK first build fails after a while of playing then returning to the menus exactly the same symptoms as before. I am running it again now with debug on and will post logs. Suffice to say this build does not work.

Will run next build after this one fails and logs uploaded.

I ran into all of these issues too, but unfortunately too busy to help out at the moment :frowning:
Thanks @sparticle, @sam_nazarko and everyone else for testing this and figuring it out!

83

@sam_nazarko @popcornmix see OM for log.

Working on next build now.

Your last log had:

21:49:17 25961.796875 T:2953835504   ERROR: COMXCoreComponent::DecoderEventHandler OMX.broadcom.egl_render - OMX_ErrorInsufficientResources, insufficient resources

as the first error. That is not the failure we have been seeing and is likely due to limited gpu mem (and so wouldn’t occur on a Pi2/Pi3).

Can you try increasing gpu_mem a little and confirm if issue still occurs?
Perhaps set to 200M?

85

HI Sam there are have been no changes to anything in /boot/config.txt between testing versions. The last test version worked perfectly with none of the issues.

Currently running the second one.

2nd build failed. Frozen after trying to exit from TV Episode. Log on PM.

I have increased gpu allocation to 200 and am running again. This build as previously stated worked perfectly with none of the problematic issues and gpu set at 144 as per standard installation guidelines.

Cheers
Spart

88

The 2nd build failed like the first with gpu set to 200. Exit from TV Episode then no banners etc.

Log on its way.

Running build one with gpu at 200

Spart

89

!st Build failed with gpu set to 200 as before exit from TV Episode n banners etc. Going back to working build.

Log on way.

Your log shows some kernel panics from systemd-udevd. What is attached to the Pi?

Please try this second bisected build:

wget  https://www.dropbox.com/s/3ycmrdtgsimkphe/bisect2.deb?dl=1 -O mediacenter.deb
sudo dpkg -i mediacenter.deb
rm mediacenter.deb
91

Nothing apart from a remote control. It has wired connection and HDMI that’s it.

Cheers
Spart

92

If the second bisected build does not yield anything useful, then let’s try this build without vsync:

wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/raniuq94f9980hl/rbp1-novsync.deb?dl=1 -O mediacenter.deb
sudo dpkg -i mediacenter.deb
rm mediacenter.deb
93

Running this one now.

Cheers
Spart

That one fails with similar issues.

Thanks sparticle. Can you describe your testing procedure?
You seem particularly effective at provoking the failures.

96

Very simple.
Stop mediacenter
Download new deb and install
reboot twice
leave it a few minutes to do its startup stuff - look for updates etc.
browse to TV shows and pick a banner and play (I try to choose a different one each time)
Go back after a while and stop playing episode
Unless frozen navigate around a bit and check banners/thumbnails are all good and we have sound
Play another TV show and go round this loop for a day or so
If there is a problem grab logs. Rinse and repeat

Cheers
Spart

(speaking quietly so Sam doesn’t hear)
Another useful experiment would be to try LibreELEC 7.0.1.
That uses the same backports branch, so should contain the same issue,
but I haven’t seen any similar reports.
Possibly that is just due to LibreELEC’s smaller user base,
but if it doesn’t have an issue then it may suggest something else going on
(e.g. compiler flags or some configuration in the build).

98

If you check back through the threads I did this when you previously suggested it. It had the same problems.

Chuckles

Let us know how the new build goes.

I will produce another bisected build in the interim to try later as well.

And you also tested a OSMC Krypton build right? Am I recalling correctly that it was harder to provoke the issue, but it did fail?
