[rPI2] slow/stuttering video + no audio

hi LE crew. thanks for fixing the no-video thing !!

now it (sometimes) starts what looks like slow motion picture with no audio. it doesn't happen always and after a quick reboot the same file plays fine.

i'm sorry i don't have a debug log, i'll turn debug back on now.
debug log on dropBox ( its MASSIVE - 58mb & 540k lines).

uptime 20min and i started happened on the 3rd video i played

01:09:50 997.870972 T:1962471424  NOTICE: DVDPlayer: Opening: /storage/mintyReds/TV/Nerdist/Nerdist.s1e590.mkv

mySetup = rPi2 + LE 6.95.2 + ubuntu mySQL & 16TB raid (mounted via NFS)

i'm hoping its something you already know about and the fix is as simple as the patch that was missing in alpha.

thanks for looking into it.

did this get included in v7 ? its still happens

thanks for the confirmation
but i feel like this needs a little more clarification

wasn't this a valid bug reported durring the beta cycle ?

this is driving the wife insane. so i made a sort of hacky solution to save the currently playing vid and restart kodi. its dirty, but the mrs is much happier now that its 1 button & enouph time to grab a glass of water VS having to hit stop > back out to seasons > tv > home > power > reboot, then all the way in again > tv > season > ep > play.

obviously YMMV, like if you're actually using autoexec.py for something, this will blow it away.

• map a button to a script
  
  
  • cat /storage/.kodi/userdata/keymaps/custom.xml
    
    Code

    <keymap>
      <global>
        <keyboard>
          <key id="0x07">RunScript(/storage/resume.playback.py)</key>
        </keyboard>
      </global>
    </keymap>

• the script test if something isPlaying, makes an autoexec.py & reloads kodi
  
  
  • cat /storage/resume.playback.py
    
    Python

    import xbmc
    from subprocess import call
    
    
    if xbmc.Player().isPlaying():
        FILE = xbmc.Player().getPlayingFile()
        AUTOSTART = "import xbmc\nxbmc.executebuiltin(\"PlayMedia(%s)\")" % FILE
        target = open('/storage/.kodi/userdata/autoexec.py', 'w')
        target.write(AUTOSTART)
        target.close
    
    
    call(["/usr/bin/systemctl", "restart", "kodi"])

• lastly the addon: script.service.kodi.callbacks runs another script (on event boot complete) to delete the autoexec.py, so the same video doesnt play for every reboot thereafter.
  
  
  • cat /storage/resume.playback-cleanup.sh
    
    Bash

    #!/bin/bash
    RESUME=/storage/.kodi/userdata/autoexec.py
    if [ -f $RESUME ]; then 
        sleep 10
        rm $RESUME
    fi

hi yall. just letting you know this is still happening in 7.0.1

( if its any consolation it feels like it happened more frequently when i tried the other band 6.95.3 )
