ali1234my best guess is some kind of crash if the fallback file isn't found due to user config error00:01
ali1234i'm basing that on it being an absolute path00:04
ali1234nah, it's not that at all00:11

bluesabreGotta love how active xfce has been recently11:28
Unit193Hmm, more to poke.11:29
Unit193We can claim bugfix release at least. :D11:30
flocculanthi bluesabre Unit193 11:54
bluesabrehi flocculant Unit193 13:09
flocculant:)13:14
flocculantbluesabre: sorry about letting you flail about the interwebs looking for the release note :D13:15
flocculantpretty sure we had other updates - but I didn't have a great deal of time this week - so 'shrug'13:16
bluesabreflocculant, np :)13:47
* flocculant is going to keep manifest from day 1 of aa so he knows what's really changed :D13:49
bluesabre:D13:50
* flocculant is going to somehow highlight light* too :p13:51
flocculantanyway - off now - have a good day :)13:51

bluesabreanybody able to reproduce this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/parole/+bug/166778617:28
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1667786 in parole (Ubuntu) "Parole 0.9.0 crashes when skipping any video" [Undecided,New]17:28
ali1234tried it virtualbox but it can't play videos at all there ("unable to initialize Xv output")17:52
flocculantbluesabre: crashes here opening a file, not getting as far as skippin,g sigabrt in g_assertion_message()18:05
bluesabre:\18:05
bluesabreali1234, yeah, Xv doesn't work in vbox, X is too resource heavy for vbox, clutter always seems up in the air in gtk land18:06
flocculantbluesabre: hang on - here - git was set to clutter - reset to (No Xv) - playing18:07
flocculants/git/it18:07
flocculantthough I do have the ppa version as well18:07
bluesabre>.<18:08
flocculantboth not clutter options work here 18:09
flocculant(still have the old 'some mkv' issue18:10
flocculantbluesabre: I see the protocol error etc in terminal - but it's not crashing when using either of the X Window options18:13
bluesabreflocculant, gotcha, I'll see what can be fixed with "new" clutter18:13
flocculantokey doke18:15
ochosimeh, lost quite a bit of history there. if anyone pinged me with something important, ping again...18:59
flocculantbluesabre: does parole, mugshot, menulibre, mousepad, catfish, all da settings sound like a sensible list of things we should regularly test rather than rely on use of them only18:59
flocculanthi ochosi - think the only thing I pinged about was fixed lightdm and the comment you made on that xfce nitify bug19:00
bluesabreflocculant, parole and mugshot should be tested a few times a cycle, too many other moving parts underneath that we can't trust them19:00
bluesabremenulibre, mousepad, catfish should be fairly reliable19:01
bluesabrebut still tested with some frequency19:01
bluesabreI think use-only testing guarantees we miss things19:01
ochosi"too many other moving parts underneath that we can't trust them" == gstreamer?19:02
bluesabregstreamer, clutter, kernelly things19:02
bluesabreh264 hardware decoding is kernel and gstreamer, same for camera support19:02
bluesabreand python/gtk integration breaks everything else I make19:03
bluesabregot parole to start with clutter after some hacking... back to broken19:04
flocculantbluesabre: hard to know what to do for the best tbh - cos any 'manufactured' test is going to miss things people might find during use19:04
flocculantdo both - I guess :D19:04
bluesabreyeah19:05
flocculantand then there are 'some mkv' type things which I see, you don't but someone else might the day after we release :p19:05
bluesabreI think that if we have a healthy number of test files for a standard parole test suite, we'll be good19:05
flocculantstill convinced that's some type of codec issue 19:06
bluesabreI have one ogm file that can't skip forward, doing so restarts the video19:06
bluesabretried some HVEC encoded videos today... they play, one frame every 30 seconds, both parole and totem19:06
bluesabregood news is that I am fixing other bugs as I try to fix these bugs :D19:07
flocculantthat's going to feel infinitely worse than a complete fail to play - especially if you have to watch it all ...19:07
flocculant:)19:07
flocculant90minute film at 120 frames per hour woohoo19:08
bluesabre:D19:08
bluesabrelike the early days of 3d gaming on "family" computers19:08
flocculantI guess what we need is a list of things we know fail to play19:08
bluesabreit'd play... technically19:09
flocculantha ha ha19:09
bluesabreThe problem is that we usually can't share the trouble maker files, we find them in our own non-CC video libraries :\19:09
flocculantmmm19:09
bluesabreI think I'll go ahead and disable clutter again for parole 0.9.1 and work towards a solution before 1.019:10
flocculantI found 'Rosa' that plays the files I can't play on either parole or totem19:11
flocculantbluesabre: ok19:11
bluesabreflocculant, that another gst player?19:13
flocculanthttps://sourceforge.net/projects/liteapps/files/ROSA%20Media%20Player/19:13
bluesabrehm19:13
flocculantbluesabre: the biggest issue for me is I don't really watch things on here - I use the tv and openelec19:14
flocculanthence I don't catch them often19:14
bluesabreThat's fair... I watch all of my videos online now, so don't see these frequently either19:15
bluesabrebeen using parole daily for podcasts recently, so been making a lot of improvements for those19:15
bluesabrefigured out today that gstreamer can pull tags from remote files19:15
bluesabrehttps://git.xfce.org/apps/parole/commit/?id=1a952fe9b632969f5ecbdc4f783ae285959c435c :D19:15
flocculantbluesabre: what I do do regularly is check things I know work and/or don't work when I get updates through19:17
flocculantI did at one point comtemplate moving openelec back to 16.04 - but then I got that tv off losing signal issue - so reverted19:18
bluesabreyou're also handy for "hey, here's a new thing, test this"19:18
flocculantha ha - just doing my bit :D19:19
flocculantmight have another try with that tomorrow 19:20
flocculantmight try dualbooting them - best option19:24
flocculantbluesabre: possibly another candidate for sru > bug 130810519:45
ubottubug 1308105 in Mythbuntu "Xfce resets TV mode to NULL when power cycled" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/130810519:45
flocculantbluesabre: fyi - parole playing a file (that won't play here) on xenial using clutter without asking for any codecs20:38
bluesabreyay xenial20:39
flocculantoh - added the daily ppa - so have same parole version20:39
flocculantalso checking out tv signal loss as I have that newer xfce4-settings 20:40
flocculantnow to see if I can add openelc to grub ...20:42
flocculantbluesabre: ok - so hopefully this will help catch these parole things - will try and default to xubuntu on the tv21:29
flocculantnot getting the dead screen thing now seemingly - though perhaps I'll reserve the rright to change my mind after tv has been off for more than 30 minutes :p21:30
