[mythtv-users] mythfrontend locking up... audio buffer problem?

[Reza Naima]

So here's another one that I've recently seen -- the frontend will lock
up and the -v all will just itterate through these two lines..

2007-05-05 23:56:06.885 AO: Broadcasting free space avail
2007-05-05 23:56:06.889 AO: audio waiting for buffer to fill: have 2048 want 4096
2007-05-05 23:56:06.889 AO: Broadcasting free space avail
2007-05-05 23:56:06.893 AO: audio waiting for buffer to fill: have 2048 want 4096

and the strace loops through these lines...

select(24, [3 4 5 23], [], [], {0, 0})  = 1 (in [5], left {0, 0})
read(5, "\0", 1)                        = 1
gettimeofday({1178434780, 361153}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1178434780, 361205}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1178434780, 361249}, NULL) = 0
ioctl(3, FIONREAD, [0])                 = 0
gettimeofday({1178434780, 361350}, NULL) = 0
select(24, [3 4 5 23], [], [], {0, 0})  = 0 (Timeout)
gettimeofday({1178434780, 361464}, NULL) = 0
nanosleep({0, 10000000}, NULL)          = 0
ioctl(5, FIONREAD, [0])                 = 0
write(6, "\0", 1)                       = 1
gettimeofday({1178434780, 371860}, NULL) = 0
ioctl(3, FIONREAD, [0])                 = 0
gettimeofday({1178434780, 371966}, NULL) = 0


lsof reveals the following handles : 
	2=pipe
	4=socket
	5=pipe
	23=UDP *:6948
	6=pipe

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
