Title: Program Crashes on Device Settings OK button
Post by: duncan4791 on April 05, 2017, 11:54:42 am
Hi,
Just updated Linux JRiver Media Center 88 to 93 on Raspian Raspberry Pi 3 along with everything else.
Pulling up the Options-Audio Device-Device Settings dialog box and then hitting OK crashes the program every single time.
Don't know why. Everything worked fine for 22.0.88. Log file attached.

Thanks Duncan.

Can't reproduce this.
The Log file doesn't have any indication of what is causing your issue.

Is it possible something else has your hifiberry device opened??

Hi again.

On the assumption that constant updates might have corrupted the system I reformatted my SDcard and loaded the April 10 Raspian Pixel image. Installed and licensed JRiver 22.0.93. The problem remains the same, on both USB to Schiit Modi Multibit and HiFiBerry Digi+ Pro the Device Settings OK button crashes JRiver.

Everything else, for my purposes, seems to be working.

Thanks again, Duncan

What is "pixel"?
I'm testing with the current Raspbian Jessie and a minimal desktop.

Pixel is the desktop used in Raspbian. Official name for the latest image download from the Raspberry Pi website is "Raspbian Jessie with Pixel", released April 10, 2017.

I'm seeing the same behavior on Arch with Gnome and the 64-bit build.  MC works as expected except for the audio device dialog box.  Clicking ok in that dialog crashes every time.  Bob, let me know if logs would help.

I tried to duplicate this using pixel on a rpi. No Luck.
Perhaps it's related to the number of audio devices, description length etc. I don't there there was any limit there however.

A log could be useful, thanks.

Ok, here's a log after the crash.  Let me know if I can do anything else to help.

Hi Bob,

I just tried removing my Hifiberry Digi+ Pro and USB dac which switched the output to pulsealsa. Tried the OK button - still crashes! I assume you burned a clean install of Full Raspian, not Lite, and still got no error. I'm stumped!

I did notice on both my "Previous Log" and mwillems "Previous Log" the last line is "Playback: CConfigureALSADlg::OnOK: Start". I am wondering if you call anything outside Mediacenter, such as ALSA and if my version and the Arch version of ALSA has been changed in some way causing a hard processor crash. That wouldn't leave any error condition for JRiver to process.

Update: I did a run from the terminal trying to get a coredump, no luck for me, but did get this response from the system:
"ALSA lib pulse.c:243:(pulse_connect) PulseAudio: Unable to connect: Connection refused    Segmentation Fault"

JRiver Log included.

Thanks Duncan.

I got it.
It's unrelated to architecture or distro.
It will be fixed in the next build.
