MediaMVP Issues
Anyone out there using the MVP yet with the linux version? After fighting with heap sizes and other install issues i appear to have a stable server with PC clients connecting without issue. Unfortunately the MediaMVP is not working quite as well... It appears to connect fine and the Sage main menu pops up without difficulty, but when i attempt to view a recording it spurts some sound and then the screen turns green and the sound stops. At this point it is locked and only a power cycle will rejuvinate it... sageout shows some pointer errors:
Tue 1/17 0:45:54.993 ERROR: Stack pointer is invalid in parser! java.lang.Exception: Stack trace but i am unsure if they are 100% related. |

definately intermittant... works sometimes and not others. i am now getting a black screen (doesn't boot to the sage menu at all) and when i attempt remote IR input to the MVP, the sage server spits errors:

Do you have the animations turned off?

ya... i have actually found that i have to leave the MVP off for a bit before rebooting it to get it to boot all of the way. i have read in other hardware forums that there are overheating problems with some MVPs which can cause this. once the MVP is up and running i have to say it is quite solid and works as well as i can expect. after setting the server heap size to 260M and adjusting the videoframe/local_encoding_to_playback_delay to 4000 the server is working wonderfully with dual tuners. now to start tweaking!
thx /jer |

it's an option when java is fired up in the startsage script
-Xmx260m /jer |

Thanks! I set it and we'll see what happens. I'm guessing there needs to be more gc() commands in the STVs themselves for Linux.
**edit** It seems to be working great. Thanks for that info. The 4000 ms delay and increasing the heap size seems to work well. Lauren Last edited by laurenglenn; 01-21-2006 at 05:32 PM. |

I also changed the following in my Sage.properties:
ui/system_memory_2dimage_cache_limit=200000000 ui/system_memory_2dimage_cache_size=160000000 -------------------------------------- I added this argument to the Java lines in Startsage: -Xincgc Itīs supposed to enable incremental garbage collection which is disabled by default. The CPU usage dropped from 85% down to under 10%. Lauren |

Those cache size are a bit excessive. You could try to use twice the default values but not 10 times...
