Hi,

I'm spotting frequent crashes when I try to enter Video collection media browser. I always try this on main Screen Orbiter... I get either really slow response for first screen or even get DCERouter crash, cause obviously mysql query didn't finish in planned time and DCERouter restarts...

Anyone with similar size of collection? Any other advice ?

Regards,

Bulek.
Thanks in advance,

regards,

Bulek.

Get an SSD as your root disk, and see if that helps.

how many entries you have?

Check if there are no double entries (by removing drives or moving stuff manually). I removed all entries from the database and did a rescan and that made a lot of difference.

Hi,

I did some further research (with the help of Dianemo's Radu) and we found out that slow disk is causing this.

If after x secs video data is not retrieved, then DCERouter crashes thinking of deadlock...

I've written my finidings about slow disk in other thread...
