[PROBLEM] BSOD when playing large files

[CurlyMo]

Can you try disabling watchdog:

Edit /etc/watchdog.conf, so make sure these lines look like:

Code:

# Uncomment to enable test. Setting one of these values to '0' disables it.
# These values will hopefully never reboot your machine during normal use
# (if your machine is really hung, the loadavg will go much higher than 25)
max-load-1              = 0
max-load-5              = 0
max-load-15             = 0

And make these lines match:

Code:

# This greatly decreases the chance that watchdog won't be scheduled before
# your machine is really loaded
#realtime               = yes
#priority               = 1

Now run the following command and reboot:

Code:

sudo update-rc.d watchdog remove

Also, i just tried the biggest file i got (17,1 GB) and the XBMC system load was in general 50-60% in Turbo mode on a 256 RPi. I believe the new buffer patch from Dom works

Top in turbo mode

Code:

PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S  %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
2330 xbian     20   0  327m  69m 2816 S  49.8 57.8   7:49.70 xbmc.bin

Top without OC

Code:

PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S  %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
2337 xbian     20   0  311m  57m  11m S  68.6 47.3   1:34.14 xbmc.bin
