Problem description:
Airplay is not working. XBMC quits to login. no logfile entry is written after stopping xbmc.

How to reproduce:
using IPAD2 with IOS 7.1.1 - start playing audio and switch to AirPlay on xbian.

fresh install from scratch with image from xbian.org with all updates works either. (btw: image should be renewed - takes hours to update, still has the python update problem. would help new users to start...)

any clues?

I believe this a known Gotham bug

watching this with interest...

I have the exact same issue.

It happens with libshairport version 1.0.5-1. With v. 1.0.2-1 xbmc doesn't quit, but it refuses to work with iOS 7 devices. Does anyone have a solution to this? Thanks in advance!

same problem here with the newest update (19.6.2014)

is there any possiblity to install a specified version of shairplay?

[CurlyMo]

Yes. Example:

Code:

apt-get install xbian-package-shairplay=1.1.1

[TheFlatlander]

Code:

xbian-package-shairplay=1.0.2

seems to work fine
i tried

Code:

xbian-package-shairplay=1.0.3

and ...=1.0.4 too, but it seems not to find these versions...


is there a newer version than 1.0.2 that i could install, that isn't 1.0.5?

The repository only has 1.0.2, 1.0.2-1 (newer than 1.0.2) and 1.0.5-1.

1.0.2-1 works like a charm!

Here is my dmesg when using airplay makes xbmc stop. Oddly enough I don't see anything about it in the xvmc logs.

I had the latest shairplay version, I'll revert to 1.0.2-1.

Could you please post your xbmc.log (/home/xbian/.xbmc/temp/xbmc.log) when XBMC crashes?
Also, we'd appreciate if you report if you have the same issue with 1.0.2-1.

Unfortunately my xbmc.log and xbmc.old.log are already overwritten due to rebooting after downgrading the packages, but before downgrading I checked and there were no special error or crash messages in those log files...

Going back to 1.0.2-1 makes airplay work again

Oops.

Asking you a couple more questions so we can debug.

Quote:Going back to 1.0.2-1 makes airplay work again :)

Are you using an iOS 6 or iOS 7 device, or both? With which devices does 1.0.2-1 work?

Also, can you please:

Terminal

dpkg -l libplist1

and

Terminal

cat /var/log/upstart/xbmc.log

if it exists.

Edit: should've been fixed in 1.0.5-2, could you please test? If it's still crashing, please see above so we can investigate this behavior further.

1.0.2-1 works with iOS7, OSX 10.9, Synology DSM5 (AudioStation).

I think this is not representative since I restarted after I downgraded to 1.0.2-1

Terminal

xbian@xbian ~ $ sudo cat /var/log/upstart/xbmc.log
[sudo] password for xbian:

1.0.5-2 works with iOS7, OSX 10.9, Synology DSM5 (AudioStation).

Thanks for notifying about the new version
