RE: XBian 1.0 Alpha 4 Bugthread - NemesisXB - 3rd Jan, 2013 01:35 AM
I changed the sources.xml file's owner to xbian. Now my sources persist through a reboot. But the library won't update. I have it set to update on startup and have tried starting it manually, every time the progress window just comes up for a short while and the last item I see displayed is "compressing database" and then the progress window disappears. I do not have it set to hide progress.
any help will be greatly appreciated.

The bug with the black screen when playing the next episode on a playlist is fixed with the newest nightly of XBMC (121215)

I'm compiling a new XBMC atm, will make a thread called "XBMC Frodo RC2" here: http://forum.xbian.org/forum-21.html This should fix it.

Does anybody have an idea why the library doesn't update? And how can I fix it?

BUG: XVid Video results in blank screen and only audio playback.
Bug playing ONLY SOME XViD files. Encoding format listed at the end.
What happens: Starts video playback, but with no picture, AUDIO ONLY.
On the IRC we talked that this is probably caused by non-supported hardware decoder, or stuff like that. Could be also a XBMC bug.
To be checked if other distros (RaspBMC, OpenELEC, etc) reproduce it.

Same issue here! But only on UPnP share.
I reported it on github https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/issues/182#issuecomment-11788771
1. I shared a film library from xbmc on my htpc to my raspberry by UPnP
2. I list all my films on raspberry correctly.
3. I start a xvid film
4. Film starts, I hear audio but no images.
5. I copy the film on usb and all works fine...
Quote:Film details:
Metadata:
encoder : VirtualDubMod 1.5.10.1 (build 2439/release)
Duration: 01:47:05.76, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 916 kb/s
Stream #0:0: Video: mpeg4 (Advanced Simple Profile) (XVID / 0x44495658), yuv420p, 592x320 [SAR 1:1 DAR 37:20], 25 tbr, 25 tbn, 25 tbc
Stream #0:1: Audio: mp3 (U[0][0][0] / 0x0055), 48000 Hz, stereo, s16, 32 kb/s
The problem remains on xbian1.0a3, xbian1.0a4 and xbianonpi/xbmc-nightly@aa4e23a .
Openelec shows all films correctly by UPnP too.

For those having playback/ other XBMC issues please try this build: http://forum.xbian.org/thread-177.html

My problem was that XBMC was throwing insufficient resources error in the log, and the guys in the raspbmc channel gave me a hint on that... so I managed to fix it with increasing the GPU RAM from 100 -> 128 in /boot/config.txt, without going to the other build... Will still investigate, though, as this might be just one of the cases.
Hope this is useful to someone.
Regards,
Boyan.

Were you able to reproduce the error every time?
If so and you have some minutes, can you please try it with the value 114 again?
I've read somewhere some days ago that the OpenElec guys choose 100 as the perfect value. Now you have more luck with 128.
So perhaps 114 is the great middle value
I didn't had this error with 100 before (xvid, mp4, mkv, 720p, 1080p), so I can't test it myself.
And did this error occur from an USB drive or via WiFi/LAN?
Xbian constantly reboots - Flint - 4th Jan, 2013 05:28 AM
Hi guys,
I have put Xbian Alpha 4 image on my Transcend SD card, powered up my Pi with 5V-1A charger I use for my Kindle. And it constantly reboots. It is fast, so I cannot quite grasp the latest log messages on the screen, but they are about daemons initialization.
I understand that my problem probably is not related to Xbian at all, but I hope someone might put me in the right direction here, because I don't know how to troubleshoot this problem with so many possible variables. Maybe it is bad power supply. Maybe it is bad card. Maybe it is faulty Pi itself. How do I actually figure out this? Any help would be appreciated.
P.S. Archlinux works, but hangs seemingly random sometimes.
RE: Xbian constantly reboots - rikardo1979 - 4th Jan, 2013 05:39 AM
I've tried Kindle charger and I found it to week for RPi so I would say it is power related
Please try another PSU if you can
