#6011: Mediaplayer drops frames a lot and then freezes ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: fano | Owner: stippi Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Applications/MediaPlayer | Version: R1/alpha1 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: mp3_decoder Blocked By: | Has a Patch: 0 Platform: All | Blocking: ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Changes (by stippi): * status: new => closed * resolution: => fixed Comment: The crashing part of this ticket was indeed a duplicate of #4175 and has been fixed. The "drops frames and eventually freezes" part has also been fixed, neither the video producer thread nor the audio producer thread try to decode frames forever, but stop after they have taken too long. MediaPlayer may still drop frames, however if the CPU is generally capable of decoding a stream fast enough, MediaPlayer should recover from dropped frames. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/6011#comment:5> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
