please attach a backtrace of mythbackend when it hangs.

comment:2 Changed 14 years ago by simons.philippe@…

the backend doesnt create a core file when it dies, so I'm not able to create a backtrace this way... I'm not comfortable with running mythbackend inside gdb... but if it's the way to go... i'd like a small procedure for this (like what to do in gdb to start the backend and what to do when my pvr-150 hang)

couldn't reproduce the bug with gdb

Reporter unable to produce backtrace, marking invalid.

You might want to try attaching to the backend _after_ the deadlock happens:

gdb mythbackend pid_of_mythbackend_process

Those backtraces were not for the same problem. We still need those to pursue the deadlock that was originally reported in this ticket...
