The touch and radio appear to be using 8b at least that's what the poky
build environment used when I rebuild the radio firmware.
So, I rebuilt squeezeplay on my linux system using jpeg 9c and libpng
1.2.59 but it still crashes as before cycling to the art only now
playing screen.
Code:
--------------------
jive: malloc.c:3096: sYSMALLOc: Assertion `(old_top == (((mbinptr) (((char
*) &((av)->bins[((1) - 1) * 2])) - __builtin_offsetof (struct malloc_chunk,
fd)))) && old_size == 0) || ((unsigned long) (old_size) >= (unsigned
long)((((__builtin_offsetof (struct malloc_chunk, fd_nextsize))+((2 *
(sizeof(size_t))) - 1)) & ~((2 * (sizeof(size_t))) - 1))) && ((old_top)->size &
0x1) && ((unsigned long)old_end & pagemask) == 0)' failed.
--------------------
Interestingly, when I build squeezeplay using dmalloc to help track this
down, it never crashes. Unfortunately, I haven't figured out how to
debug/step through the lua code to try to find where this is happening.
gdb traceback isn't very helpful either and valgrind reports the
something has clobbered memory but it's happening way down in SDL so
finding the source of the corruption isn't forthcoming.
Code:
--------------------

valgrind: m_mallocfree.c:266 (mk_plain_bszB): Assertion 'bszB != 0' failed.
valgrind: This is probably caused by your program erroneously writing past the
end of a heap block and corrupting heap metadata. If you fix any
invalid writes reported by Memcheck, this assertion failure will
probably go away. Please try that before reporting this as a bug.
--------------------
Perhaps the image handling is misleading. The long text strings are
what's really different with the iplayer plugin.
