Bug Description

I'm not 100% sure this is the cause of the crash, but I have seen a lot of these errors in the log...

basically, playback works fine, skipping back and forth works fine, editing the cutscenes works (I think these might have something to do with the error - it may be just a coincidence but I'd say this error happens 100% of the time I have edited skip points), everything except the BACK button (Escape on the keyboard) to actually stop playback...

I can let it run to the end (or skip to the end) and I get the dialog about if I want to delete or save or delete and rerecord - but that fails to do anything

I can skip back from that dialog box and unpause playback and it will resume playing again but the ONLY way I can get out of playback is to kill the frontend entirely

here is a log snippet:

I think the fact that transcoding also doesn't work any more may be a clue as to what is going on here-

first attempt at transcoding: no audio

(I think I subsequently changed from ALSA/Surround51 -which worked flawlessly on 0.25 for over a year to simply ALSA/Default)

second attempt at a transcode: it completely ignored all my jump points

I have always, since the beginning of time, used "Low Quality" for transcode jobs (MPEG-4 / MP3) and over the many different versions of MythTV transcoding is usually pretty reliable

We really do appreciate you opening this ticket to help improve Mythbuntu, but it needs to be closed for a number of reasons. The biggest one is that upstream has moved on to a new version and believes this to be fixed. Could you please verify if this issue still exists in the latest version?

Please do not let the closing of this ticket dissuade you from opening a new ticket if this (or any other) problem occurs with the newer versions.
