RE: Official XBian 1.0 Beta 1 thread
My issue still remains
 I did a clean install of beta 1.1 using the XBian Windows installer. No updates, no other modifications just clean install on 512mb rpi. Only added my TV Shows folder as a source, did not scan to library, did not install addons. Tested a few old episodes that used to play perfect. They freeze, each freeze last 10-20 seconds. and it happens 4-5 times a minute. All I can think of, something is wrong with my hdd. but when attached to a Windows laptop, I can play everything from it, using xbmc on the laptop. I tried running fsck but it says error 2: Terminal fsck from util-linux 2.20.1 fsck: fsck.ntfs: not found fsck: error 2 while executing fsck.ntfs for /dev/sda1 Windows said it needed to fix the drive, I let it run and it fixed the drive, lost some files with incorrect Windows filenames (NCIS: Los Angeles). But the issue remains. Any help much, much appreciated. If I can get this fixed, I will have 1 raspberry available for testing new beta or alpha versions. New logs after clean install using Xbian installer and nothing updated/no addons/no library, played a few files: xbmc log dmesg (31st Oct, 2013 06:42 PM)zilexa Wrote: I had a perfectly stable XBian 1.0 beta 1.1 running for as long as beta 1.1 was released. Came back from 3 wks holiday, (RPi was on all the time, downloading tv shows via flexget), I unplugged the USB NTFS harddrive (static mount to /media/usb) to copy my holiday photos using a Windows laptop and also a macbook. Now I plug it back in the RPi, run a Library Update since there are so many new episodes. One day later, I try to playback a non-720p episode, just hdtv x264 nothing special. |

RE: Official XBian 1.0 Beta 1 thread
Well you did help me because I never suspected a cable or hardware issue.
I just added my Win laptop (wifi 11g) as smb share and played a 720p mkv on my rpi (connected via lan to wifirouter). Plays fine. I just mounted the ntfs usb drive using: UUID=myuuid /media/usb0 ntfs-3g defaults,noatime,nodiratime,async,big_writes 0 0 issue still there. Is there a way to test if the linux system is having read issues? I actually suspect an ntfs filesystem error, although Windows already fixed the drive. I cannot format the drive since it contains 450GB of data.. |

RE: Official XBian 1.0 Beta 1 thread
try one more thing.
umount the drive, remove from RPI. edit /etc/usbmount/usbmount.conf file : edit line starting with MOUNTOPTIONS= - change "sync" to "async" report back Please read rules and do a search before you post! . FAQs . How to post log file? . Looking for answers? Please start here |

RE: Official XBian 1.0 Beta 1 thread
Done. Now I see no contents in my harddrive in /media/UUID-of-the-hdd/ and also /media/usb0 is empty.
via ssh I tried sudo mount /dev/sda1, said it was already mounted. Checked back in XBMC and suddenly I could see all the contents. Playback issue remains. it also takes a long time to start playing btw, longer than usual even for simple 175MB files which they do not stutter or freeze. Issue only seems to be with a little bit higher bitrate (like 720p tv rips). I freed enough space on my laptop to copy the entire usb drive on it. Will do that now and completely format the drive as exfat (need compatibility with Windows, exfat is a bit more compatible then ntfs hopefully, since os x also supports it). Then copy everything back and report here. Will take some time.. |

RE: Official XBian 1.0 Beta 1 thread
I found the issue:
https://www.modmypi.com/raspberry-pi-accessories/New-Link-4-Port-USB-Hub-%28USB-2.0-with-Mains-Adaptor%29 This hub feeds the RPi and the harddrive. The moment I connect the RPi, the harddrive softly spins down a little. The hub worked fine for just a few months. Not any more now. An old blackberry charger powers the RPi with the harddrive still connected to the hub, video plays fine now! Now I have to install and configure everything.. deleted my backup because I thought that one was also faulty. very annoying.. I blame ModMyPi. |

RE: Official XBian 1.0 Beta 1 thread
I'm not going to "dis" the supplier but I have had two Hubs from this supplier - in their credit, they did replace the first one with another but that failed after a while with various USB connection errors. Needless to say both hubs are now in the bin.
I bought a Belkin at twice the price and I haven;t had any problems since. Cheap is not always the way to go. (2nd Nov, 2013 06:25 AM)zilexa Wrote: I found the issue: @zilexa Blame yourself. The USB will only provide at most 500ma. The RPi needs at least 700ma at startup, as has been stated everywhere, the RPi needs a dedicated power supply of at least 1amp, so I'm not surprised you are having problems. I also guess that the HDD is not self powered. Check the amperage of the Blackberry charger and I think you will find it is above 500ma So error ID 10 T.

RE: Official XBian 1.0 Beta 1 thread
Actually I did do my homework. I called the supplier before buying 2 hubs and asked specifically about the output per port and described how I would use the setup. She even emailed me a complete drawing of how to connect the harddrive and the RPi to the same hub and confirmed both should get up to 900mA each. Still have that picture in my email. Then I received the two and one did not work. One of the supplied USB cables was bad. They replaced it and my setup worked for 6 months. I still have one working setup at someone else house. identical to this one. No idea why this specific hub suddenly does not deliver enough power.
I will contact the supplier next week and they'll probably send a new one but I prefer to go for a Belkin one as they are at discount now in a store nearby untill tomorrow. Blackberry charger output is 700mA, that is the reason I use this one as fast charger for my phone  and I also used it to test RPis in the past.

RE: Official XBian 1.0 Beta 1 thread
Is it possible to change USBMOUNT.CONF in such a way that it will create mountpoints to symlinks which name contains only LABEL and not UUID?

@zilexa, yes this is fully configurable in Beta2 even from XBMC.

RE: Official XBian 1.0 Beta 1 thread
HI All,
I have a question for all and wanted to see if you can help me out.. Before I was using Raspbmc. I just switched to Xbian 1.1 b1 and most of the stuff is working good. The only thing I needed help on was the following. - When powering off unit it does not hault.. It actually reboots.. Is this a bug. - I used to use official XBMC remote on my iPhone.. I cannot link to XBMC using this to use as a remote anymore.. Can you let me know which one everyone is using or if anyone has got it working.. I have tried everything meaning going in to service and enabling as well as installing a new webserver. I can go to the web interface and it works fine just the remote control app does not work or see it. thanks once again. |
