BB 3.0.2: Poor playback performance when downloading

New postby ofutur on Wed Oct 13, 2010 3:28 am

I never had a problem before, but with this release, it's almost impossible to control the playback while PT is downloading new episodes.
There is a lag of several seconds for most actions like play, ff, volume up/down.

How to repeat:
1) Start PT (it will update all the podcasts on load)
2) Play an episode

A reboot fixed it. PT was stuck. It couldn't update the podcasts and it was slowing down the rest.

Ok, if you ever see this again can you shoot me a copy of the logs? Hopefully I can tell where it gets stuck.

It just happened again on OS6.
Started Podtrapper
Went to preferences
Pruned some files (no idea why there are always files I need to prune)
Disabled carrier download
Went to a podcast episode
Selected play
Nothing
Selected another one and pressed play
Nothing
Nothing happened for 10-20 seconds
Then a podcast started to play and then it froze.
Impossible to go back to the OS
I had to reboot.

So, I have no log to send...but it seems there are some problems on OS6 in a low memory situation.

Yes, so it always happens with videos. Not sure about audio.

Ah, ok. So it's likely just the OS 6 video bug. I should have it squashed soon. (Loading OS 6 on my 9700 as I type this).
