Hi folks
the issue,
Xine keeps crashing on certain play back of MP4 video files, the same video files played on 8.10, and play back was prefect.
LMCE install snapshot
LMCE 1204 20150630070030841.iso 30 Jun 2015 2.2Gb
( sudo upgrade completed after install )
The core is Intel Corporation 4th Gen Core Processor DRAM Controller (rev 06)
The MD
Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/PM/GMS, 943/940GML and 945GT Express (due to be replaced)
It freezes during play back of 1 or 2 minutes and I have to kill the process.
see paste bin here http://pastebin.com/rnfe0TKb , look for video name 17 again
after freezing no other video will play from the library, quick reload allows me to choose different video file, but only audio plays.
Stop it and choose the same file again and I get both audio and video play back.
please advise

The output from Xine_Player's screen session may also prove helpful here, can you paste it?

here's another one for Dirty dancing mp4 video file
http://pastebin.com/i7vq0LY8

Since we use libxine directly any playback issues are associated with the upgrades they have performed in their source code. If you can provide an ~10MB snippet of a failing video then we can look to see if it works for us.
Thanks,

Hi
This is the best I can do, 50MB
https://www.dropbox.com/s/k8qoykqjxv59b08/My%20Video.mp4?dl=0
I you wanted hole film you can grab a copy at yifi movies .
Cheers
Gov

hmm. YIFY are terrible releases. They are small, but I find issues with them regularily in playback on multiple devices.
That being said, the sample plays perfectly here on my 1204 and 1404 systems and on the rpi.

What does ffmpeg say to these files? Is ffmpeg able to rebundle them into a usable format?
-
I never had an issue with the play back of these files on 8.10, I'll do some home work,
Do you know of any other sites other then yifi !
cheers

koffel in IRC had a similar issue recently and he was able to resolve it by re-installing libxine
apt-get install --reinstall libxine2 libxine2-bin libxine2-ffmpeg libxine2-misc-plugins libxine2-plugins libxine2-x
Try that out and see if that resolves your issue. The clip you sent me plays perfectly on all my systems.

Hi Folks
Back at it again, using the latest snap shot of 12.4
http://linuxmce.iptp.org/snapshots/LMCE-1204-20151211114231752-i386.iso
For some reason most of my mp4 videos, will not play on the MD
I have logged into the KDE desktop and open the video under dragon player, dragon player asked for gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg to be installed, so I allowed it to be installed and mp4 file played perfect.
Xine player wont play the mp4 even when logged in to KDE
Boot up MD, open the same video file and now I just a get a blank screen and then it comes back to the main screen.
So I tried the below on both the MD & CORE
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mc3man/gstffmpeg-keep
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
AND
sudo apt-get install xine-ui libxine1-ffmpeg
Then I get
gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg is already the newest version.
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
realpath libdmraid1.0.0.rc16 kpartx-boot archdetect-deb python-pyicu
libdebian-installer4 kpartx rdate btrfs-tools localechooser-data apt-clone
dpkg-repack libdebconfclient0 dmraid
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.

AND
sudo apt-get install xine-ui libxine1-ffmpeg
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
xine-ui is already the newest version.
libxine1-ffmpeg is already the newest version.
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
realpath libdmraid1.0.0.rc16 kpartx-boot archdetect-deb python-pyicu

dpkg-repack libdebconfclient0 dmraid
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.

So I am now confused, it works when you are directly logged onto KDE.
Any suggestion as this command didn't work either
apt-get install --reinstall libxine2 libxine2-bin libxine2-ffmpeg libxine2-misc-plugins libxine2-plugins libxine2-x
So I am stuck with 10.4 for moment and unable to test the rpi2 for as MD

What's the audio format? Xine needs special configuration for AAC audio.
pastebin your /etc/asound.conf /etc/pluto/xine.conf and the mediainfo output for the mp4 file.

Hi phenigma
Thanks for the reply, while I waited for the reply, I have upgraded to 14.4 snap shot LMCE-1404-20151205213931742-i386.iso
Still the same issue, I have installed mplayer, vlc player through the lmce-admin Software modules.
/etc/pluto/xine.conf --> http://pastebin.com/TDrX1ict (http://pastebin.com/TDrX1ict)
/etc/asound.conf --> http://pastebin.com/5pkQgzgi
I will have to go through those mp4's that don't play and put them to one side for the moment unitl we can figure out why they wont play. most of my library are mp4's
I can now test the rpi2 as a MD
Cheers
Gov

:) :) :) :) :) :) I've just rebooted the core and now the file is playing, make I thank my angels and the good lord above!
Thanks phenigma for your help!

Hi phenigma
I have done a fresh re-install to day my system crashed on 12.4 hardware issue.
So I have installed 14.4 and completed all the updates, added my videos again and this time the MD wont play the mp4 movie files.
So I have installed all the players available to the system, only to find that if I update file to a linuxMCE HD-DVD the xine player starts and the film plays.
The values are holdding in the admin section, as when you stop and try to play the film again it doesn't play until you update the file to a LinuxMCE HD-DVD.
The sound is Choppy/Lagging on some files.
any commands I can follow up with
For now I have manually set the mp4 to EK_MediaType 27 (LinuxMCE HD-DVD) is allows play of my mp4's
MYSQL Command
UPDATE `File` SET `EK_MediaType`='27' WHERE `EK_MediaType`='5'
For the Choppy/Lagging I have installed the ffmpeg using the following command.
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
Cheers

Govo, would you mind filing a ticket for this, with this information. Please include the following:
lspci -nn | grep VGA
cat /etc/pluto.conf
cat /etc/pluto/xine.conf
dpkg -l
uname -a
arch
lsb-release -cs
Thanks!
