Howdy, and thank you for taking the time to help improve Mythbuntu by opening this ticket. There have been quite a number of bug fixes made to the 0.24.x version you are running - I would suggest enabling the Mythbuntu repos, which will pick up those fixes. You can find out more by clicking here: http://mythbuntu.org/auto-builds
If you are still able to reproduce the problem after enabling the auto-bug fixes, please feel free to open a new ticket. Note that in order to really debug a problem, the developers need some debug files called backtraces, which are discussed here: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Debugging#Ubuntu_packages Also note that 0.25 is in the process of final testing and about to be released - and MythTV developers have turned the vast majority of their limited time to that newer version and might not fix a bug on this version of MythTV. The above repo's has the option to install 0.25 as well. Please do not let the closing of this ticket dissuade you from opening a new ticket if this (or any other) problem occurs with the newer versions. WARNING: If you need to have the ability to revert back to your current version, you will need to back up your database before upgrading so that you can later restore it, since newer databases can not be downgraded. ** Changed in: mythtv (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: mythtv (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/976279 Title: trying to play some files crashes the whole frontend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mythtv/+bug/976279/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
