Description

mythfrontend[16773]: segfault at 40 ip b7255d1c sp a488a0f0 error 6 in libmythtv-0.23.so.0.23.0[b6bb2000+b93000]

Mythfrontend segfaults when screen resolution changes? Or so I think. It segfaults on some channels when there are commercial or news breaks. I think this refs #8410 as I tried to manually backport that changeset and it seems to work partly. It skips a couple of seconds instead of segfaulting. But my GDB BT says it happens in AvFormatDecoder::GetFrame.

Do you have a sample which reproduces the segfault?

comment:2 by mythtv@…, 16 years ago

I don't know how I should cut out a sample correctly from a recording, but here is one which I used dd skip on.

Hope that helps.

I think I'm suffering from the same issue -- some DVB program changes crash the frontend as documented in ​http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1452898&page=4

(In [24606]) avfd: fix segfault after stream change without fully set codec options

The main problem is that directrendering is not reset to false and GetFrame() relies on it and happily uses a NULL ptr. partially backports [24363] from trunk. Fixes #8445
