Thanks for the postings. My Macbookpro (MacBookPro3,1) running 10.5.2  
does the random freeze on saving rev files.


All I've been able to do is a hard reboot (hold the on button till the  
mac turns off). Then press the on button to restart.

Re: 2.9 Freeze on OSX

2008-05-03 Thread M Koob
I have had this issue with saving stacks and I agree it seems to be
random.  I am using a 15 MacBook Pro (Intel Core 2 Duo 2.2 GHz). I have
read over the posts in this thread to see if there are any clues.  Some
of the possible causes that have been suggested don't apply to my
situation.

I have tried to eliminate any of the issues that have been raised as
possible factors and I still get a crash randomly.

I don't think Login items are an issue -In my regular user account I
have only two login items 
  -Snapz Pro 
  -itunes Helper

I don't have any of the software installed that others have mentioned
namely 
  -EyeTV plugin 
  -USBOverdrive 
  -xKeys iKey 
  -iStat 
and yet I still
get crashes so I don't think any of these is the real culprit.

After reading the posts about corrupt preference files and permissions,
I created a brand  new user account to ensure new preferences files were
created.  I also ran disk utility to repair permissions. I doubt it
would be permissions anyway since most of the time the files will save
without a freeze.  The freeze is random.  Also as a basic form of
versioning I continually make duplicates of of my revolution stacks in
the Finder  and rename them with a higher version number and then open
these and work on the new file.   These files should have their permissions set
correctly as the user that created them in the Finder is also the one
opening and saving them in Revolution Studio.   I also ensured that there were
no login items in this new user account.  After working must of the day ii
this configuration I got another freeze.

One interesting thing is that the freeze is not a total system freeze.  
It is just the video that is frozen and Revolution is hung,  and the 
keyboard is not responsive ie. can't force quit with key combo.  Other
processes and apps continue to run in the background.   I can login to 
the frozen Mac Book Pro remotely with terminal running on another Mac 
that is on the local network and run commands line commands to
look at running processes ie. top and ps.  I can also 'kill' Revolution
remotely from the command line but that does not allow me to use the Mac
again, the screen is still frozen.   I can also issue a command to
shutdown remotely and the Mac shuts down.

I have used Revoultion studio 2.8.1 prior to this to work on my
application and never had any freezes.  This only started happening with
2.9.  The stack that I have been working on has 3 Players that play
quicktime movies, One of those players is in a substack that is opened
as a palette periodically.  I wonder, since it seems that it is the
video that freezes, if it is something to do with the quicktime movies. 
Another possible  issue is that the stack is larger than the Mac Book
Pro's display.  The application is targeted for a 20 iMac but I develop
on the 15 Mac Book Pro so portions of the stack windows are off screen.
  Again this was the case when I was working on the application with
2.8.1 so it is a new issue with 2.9.

I won't be going to Runrev live this month but I  hope that someone who
is experiencing the freezes is going and can demonstate it to the
developers.

I am using the workarounds suggested (such as saving by script instead
of with the menu or key combination) to avoid the crashes but it creates
extra work and sometimes you slip up.

Hopefully there will be a fix for this soon.

Mark,

While this problem still has no 'recipe', I have had the stack that  
was saving go corrupt so I not only have to save in alternate ways but  
also I have to do a compress file in the finder to ensure a recent  
backup. I also archive the stack and of course use Time Machine.


What is the method for saving in GLX2? You see, I have just gone back  
to 2.8 instead of continuing to freeze my machine but would love to  
play with the new additions to drag and drop and of course the  
wonderful bug fixes in 2.9.

I have not seen the problem on my computer.   But, my cohort Hans  
has the problem every day he works in Rev.  We have found that  
saving his work in GLX 2 is the most reliable form of saving.  The  
problem only happens when he does command - S which uses Rev's  
saving routines.  In most cases, it brings his entire system down  
forcing him to force shutdown his computer.  Not a happy moment when  
this happens after a long coding session.  Luckily he has not lost  
much work due to diligent saving in GLX 2.

Re: 2.9 Freeze on OSX

2008-04-16 Thread Thomas McGrath III

Jim,

Thanks for the advice and of course what appears to be a simple thing  
turns out to be a major complication for me.


I created the account then had to reenter serial numbers in RR that  
would not accept them. Finally, entering old ones and getting a new  
error then reentering new ones got RR to accept them. This required  
logging out each time. So I turned on user switching. So much for a  
clean account now.


Logout
Login
Copy serial numbers
Logout
Login
Paste/ not work
Logout
Login
recopy
logout
login
repaste
logout
login
find old serial nums
logout
login
etc.
Set User Switching
Switching users another few times and then:
Then need to copy RR project to shared folder.
Switch
Then need to copy resources to shared folder.
Switch
Not enough resources (song files etc.)
Switch
Since the stack works with songs, launch itunes, no songs,
Switch
copy songs to shared folder
Switch
Now library is working and iTunes is working and RR is working

Error on trying to save:

Can't save stack libITS due to an error:
can't open stack backup file
Check the file path, and make sure you
have sufficient permissions.

I am not even using GLX2 in RR in this new user account, which is what  
normally is set to back up my stacks. So I look for an RR backup  
setting and find none. What is causing this backup file to happen and  
what path is it referring to? If I can find that maybe I can deal with  
the Permissions.

Hi Tom,
have you tried setting up a new user account under OSX, and trying

Jac,

That did it. Thanks for the explanation. Apparently the shared folder  
was the problem.


And of course, the stack saved WITHOUT any problems so now the Freeze  
is locally suspect.


Something changed between 2.8 and the way 2.9 saves that is now in  
conflict with one of my local settings.


This feels like the old OS9 days using the Extensions Manager. Oh  
well, now to find where the conflict lives.



Thank you,

When Rev saves a stack, it first renames the original by adding a  
tilde at the end of the file name. Then it tries to copy the stack  
into a new file. If for some reason the duplication doesn't succeed,  
you get that error. The backup it is refering to is the original  
copy, now renamed, which you should be able to find in its original  
enclosing folder. You can restore the original by removing the tilde  
from the file name. It won't have your new changes in it, of course,  
but you'll have the orginal copy to work with again.


The error when saving is almost always due to an inability to write  
to the hard drive. That can be a permissions error, a hard drive  
error, a disk full error, or anything else that prevents the  
duplicate stack from being created.


I would check the permissions on the stack file itself, on its  
enclosing folder (you copied it from the shared directory, right?  
Does it still belong to the original owner?), the permissions on  
the Rev app itself as well as Rev's enclosing folder. Rev needs to  
be able to read and write. As an experiment, give everyone all  
permissions for all the folders and files -- the owner, the group,  
and everyone -- just to see if that's the problem. Basically you  
want anyone to be able to copy and write to that user's account. You  
can change the permissions back later, but see if that fixes it for  
now.

I deleted a series of LOGIN items from my Accounts/Login Items in  
System Settings.


I had previously uninstalled a series of applications that added menu  
items etc. to my system but that did not help.


Then I noticed that a new user account has no login items at all. So I  
went and deleted the relevant items that were still in the Login Items  
tab. I had deleted the preference panes and applications but there  
were still items in the login items tab for those apps.


I am sorry that I don't know which ones were creating problems for me  
since I deleted a bunch.


I can try and use Time machine to go back but I don't want to on my  
whole system. Does anyone know where these Login Items are/were stored?

It seems to be random when it crashes. It will work fine several times and then 
crash. Nothing apparently different on my end.

I never had this problem with any previous version of Rev or any other program

Hi Tom,

Hans tells me that he will not allow himself to use the Rev IDE for  
saving.  In other words, no command - S unless he has a script visible  
in GLX2.  When GLX2 is open and a script is visible from the stack he  
is working on, then the G scripts are in use.  For some reason, this  
works quite well.


We have come to believe that the issue is with the saving dialog from  
Rev.  The dialog is the last thing he sees.  I use save in my projects  
all the time (in scripts) and have never had any issue.  Thus, I think  
it is really the IDE that is causing all this grief.


Maybe Rev could just do a diff on the 2.8.1 and 2.9 saving routines  
and see what has changed and get us back in shape.


Because of all of this, we are very paranoid when saving around here.   
We both use Chronosync as our backup system.  It backs up our work  
every 15 minutes to multiple locations.  Because one can develop in  
Rev so quickly, 15 minutes could be a lot of work lost.

Re: 2.9 Freeze on OSX

2008-04-16 Thread Thomas McGrath III
Well, in trying to track down this freeze I started to reinstall some  
of my applications.


EyeTV seems to have no effect on RR Saving.
Flip4Mac WMV has no effect.

---
iKey brings back the Freeze.


iKey is a software and USB hardware  keyboard (iKeys) combination. I  
use Revolution to use the iKeys keyboard to control my Robots and my  
TV etc. I also use a plugin called irTrans and another software called  
iRed which uses a device called iRTrans (infrared send and receiver).  
This allows me to use Revolution to respond to keypresses on the the  
iKeys and send IR commands via USB to the iRTrans device that then  
sends the IR command to the Robot, TV, etc. I have loved having total  
control over a Robot from a RR interface.


I further uninstalled each of these in turn and they all work by  
themselves and won't cause RR to freeze, except one situation where  
iKeys is set to open at startup in it's preferences window then RR  
freezes. As far as I can tell the application iKey.app is the actual  
start up file in the login items tab in Accounts in System  
Preferences. If I delete this in Login Items but still use the same  
application (but not at startup) then I have no Freeze.


The program iKeys works fine and RR saves just fine, it is only when  
this item is in the Login Items that I am experiencing the Freeze. Yet  
it seems that the login just launches the same exact program (reveal  
in finder in the Login Items preferences pane points to the same app I  
launch).


The iKeys app has software and an engine that also has a main menu bar  
menu.
iRed has a plugin irTrans and a software iRed to edit and send the ir  
commands.

These apps were installed previously and I un-installed them:

This is still installed:

SO the only ones that I am questioning are the EyeTV plugin, the  
USBOverdrive, and xKeys, and iStat

Re: 2.9 Freeze on OSX

2008-04-16 Thread Thomas McGrath III

Mark,

I also suspected USBOverdrive and now I have narrowed down the iKey  
and Xkeys as contributing factors. Since both of these are used for I/ 
O - USB - Serial connections that might be a factor since the save  
checks I/O devices and since some devices are connected over USB. I  
don't know but right now with both USBOverdrive and iKeys uninstalled  
and removed from my Login Items I have not had a crash for the first  
time since 2.9 came out.


I will keep testing over the next few days to see if this is indeed  
where the problem lies.


Thanks for hanging in there and your feedback.

Very interesting list Thomas.  Hans took out USBOverdrive from his  
login items.  He has been saving a lot since to test it out.  No  
crashes yet!  He will run like this for another few days and see how  
it goes.  I do not have USBOverdrive in my login items and have

Ok.  Here is the latest over here.  Hans put USBOverdrive back into  
the mix and got rev to crash within 4 saves using the rev ide.  He  
misses USBOverdrive and has gone back to using GLX2 to save all his  
work.  We have a working solution over here until this gets ironed out.

Perhaps happenstance that both crash related items (USB overdrive, and  
iKeys or X-keys) have to do with USB devices?

Re: 2.9 Freeze on OSX

2008-04-16 Thread Luis
Normally OS X will prevent 'badly behaved' drivers (have noted USB 
drivers specifically) from loading into the system, especially so on OS 
X 10.5. Having them then 'forced into being' as startup items is asking 
them to load up again.
Note that some apps have to make specific changes to be OS X 10.5 
friendly (I have seen this with TechTool) and not just drivers, so check 
for updates.


Cheers,

Luis.

I use USBOverdrive Tom, and while I mostly save using GLX2, I
sometimes do a standard save, and I haven't had any problems.

One other thing to check is that you have Leopard-compatible versions
of all these utilities.

Hi Tom,
have you tried setting up a new user account under OSX, and trying your stacks 
using that? It may be that the crash is something to do with a preference or 
setting related to your usual user account. If crashes continue under that then 
its probably a system thing causing the Rev problem.

I have not seen the problem on my computer.   But, my cohort Hans has  
the problem every day he works in Rev.  We have found that saving his  
work in GLX 2 is the most reliable form of saving.  The problem only  
happens when he does command - S which uses Rev's saving routines.  In  
most cases, it brings his entire system down forcing him to force  
shutdown his computer.  Not a happy moment when this happens after a  
long coding session.  Luckily he has not lost much work due to  
diligent saving in GLX 2.

Re: 2.9 Freeze on OSX

2008-04-10 Thread Marian Petrides, M.D.
I am experiencing Rev 2.9 freezups (requiring that I force quit to get  
out, sometimes necessitating a reboot), but I'm thinking they occur  
when I try to quit Rev rather than when I try to save changes.   
Haven't worked the details out yet (sorry!) and haven't had enough  
problem to stop in the middle of working on my current project to  
figure things out.

I can not use 2.9 at all since it now happens every time I go to  
save after writing some code. I have installed RR from scratch and  
repaired permissions on my HD and removed most extra preference  
panes etc. from my system and still have the instant freezes when  
saving with 2.9.


This does NOT happen with 2.8 which I am using everyday. The same  
stacks will freeze in 2.9 but not in 2.8.



How many people are experiencing this Freeze on Save???


Thanks

Hi Tom,

I'm using 2.9 all day now without any of such freezes. Do you also  
see a spinning beachball of death, or do you still see an arrow  
cursor when you move the mouse cursor over Rev windows?


Best,

Mark

Nope, the only freeze I had was when running an AppleScript that  
wasn't completing, but Rev eventually became responsive again once it  
timed out.


Rev 2.9.0 gm1, OS X 10.5.2 on a rev A MBP.

Mark,

I am seeing the beach ball when over any Rev windows. Sometimes it  
takes a minute to change to the beach ball though.

I am.

There already is a bugzilla ticket (5256) for this and Rev is trying  
to get a handle on it. Obviously it only affects a subset of users  
but it is bad.

Re: 2.9 Freeze on OSX

2008-04-10 Thread Joe Lewis Wilkins
Neither of the projects I'm working with have frozen on Saving, though  
when painting, one of them saves somewhat inconsistently.


I still haven't been able to create a Classic standalone with either  
one of them that will open up under 9.2.2 on a G4.
