View Full Version : Rebooting Tivo

When I am watching movies view pyTivo I get a whole lot of rebooting.

i narrowed it down to this part of my kernel log? Any idea what this means or if I can get more info from another log?

If I am reading this right, it is saying I am running out of memory. Could I possibly have a memory leak or am I running too many hacks? Any way to begin a process of elimination? How do I do this, "Paste the following into a shell to get a backtrace...?"

The problem started with OS 9.1. I never had this happen that I can remember with 8.3

Unless you know mips machine code and are reasonably familiar with the internals of tivoapp, a backtrace is unlikely to help.

I don't think shutting down other hacks is likely to help. I believe it's much more likely that it's an internal memory pool that was exceeded. (which is probably allocated with a fixed value, not based on what other processes are using memory)

You may want to take a recording that you know causes trouble and try to xfer it with a significantly reduced bitrate.

It seems to be all recordings. I don't recall getting a file to transfer since going to 9.1. I haven't touched my settings since Narf54321 gave me advice in this post DDb /forum/showpost.php?p=286754&postcount=15

[MyMovies]
type = video
path = F:\VideoFiles

[Server]
ffmpeg = C:\Program Files\TiVo\pyTivo\plugins\video\ffmpeg_mp2.exe
beacon = 192.168.0.255
audio_br = 192K
port = 9032

Do you see something that might need adjusting?

Sorry, I don't have a machine that works with pyTivo, so have never used it... you may want to post in the support thread, to see where it can be changed, because none of those are the video bitrate
