[Bug 235522] Re: When playing videos (avi/mpeg/etc) media player crashes and freezes system
Whatever it's affecting my system, it doesn't matter if there is Compiz running. I've seen it hang after a fresh clean installation. I've seen it hang with Compiz installed and without it. The most obvious thing I notice is that it hangs when playing any kind of media - be it music or video - in whatever format I can think of. When Ubuntu 7.04 came out, I tried to install it. Then it was a nightmare; it took from 5 seconds to 2 minutes for the entire system to block completely. With the current version, I can work with the system (office applications, torrent clients, etc) but I simply can't use it as an entertainment centre. Which is a little annoying... I'm running it on a MSI laptop, with a nVidia card. -- When playing videos (avi/mpeg/etc) media player crashes and freezes system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235522 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm also having the same problem. It happens with Totem, VLC, and MPlayer. It doesn't matter if I play audio or video, the system hangs as soon as the program is opened. The mouse cursor still moves, but the system is otherwise unresponsive, even to Ctrl+Alt+Backspace. This used to happen only once in a while, but now happens consistently every time since the latest xorg update. I haven't seen it hang if I disable compiz, so maybe it's an issue with that? I use the intel (945GM) drivers. -- When playing videos (avi/mpeg/etc) media player crashes and freezes system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235522 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I tried to give has much information has possible, but as the first comment clearly states, I was put aside. The machine still gives me this behaviour. Trying to use my PC as a entertaining centre is a nightmare, with the constant and totally random blocks. It sometimes even blocks when not playing any type of media at all. It simply freezes. And since the only way to get the machine running again is a cold reboot, no report of crash gets done. It's a sick cycle. -- When playing videos (avi/mpeg/etc) media player crashes and freezes system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235522 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 235522] Re: When playing videos (avi/mpeg/etc) media player crashes and freezes system
the issue is not a totem one, whatever an user software do the system should not freeze and the description lists vlc as doing the same, that's likely either a xorg or linux bug -- When playing videos (avi/mpeg/etc) media player crashes and freezes system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235522 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Then, if this is so, how to diagnose the problem? I've been fighting with this since Ubuntu 7.04 - then, the system wouldn't even be usable. It would block between 5 and 30 seconds after starting. -- When playing videos (avi/mpeg/etc) media player crashes and freezes system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235522 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
