Issues with Playback

[prupp89]

Hey there! I've been using xbmc4xbox for awhile now, and this is my first time posting. I'm having an issue playing back some recently encoded files with Handbrake that I encoded to use with my new Roku. These are rips of some of my DVDs as I'm trying to put them all on a server to share over the network here. One of the files I encoded months ago for xbmc works fine, however the 2nd one (Talladega Nights) doesn't seem to cooperate and freezes the xbox a few seconds in. Here's the log:

Any suggestions on ways I could try playing this on the Xbox without having to reencode the movie? If there's any info I've left out, please let me know! I'm running RC2 on a standard, soft-modded Xbox.

Thanks!

That is not a debug log, see this please:

Judging from the information provided in the log - see that M: column that's free RAM - playing the first video makes it drop from 29MB down to 8MB, then it recovers back to 23 MB and you play the second video right away and that makes the second video playback crash when it reaches 20KB free RAM.

Can you try playing the second video by itself, or give it a bit more time in between, maybe it will recover. If you enable debugging you can also see the amount of free RAM on the screen, at least while testing.

You can squeeze a couple more MB if you stop certain network services from Settings > Network, if you don't use them:
