Alsa causes lockup/freeze (link)

Build the Qt version, the Gtk one does not really work anymore

Well, that's a bummer!  I wish I'd known that before spending all that time today trying to build it. With the lockup I'm getting, the Qt version doesn't work either.    There's no way to build the Gtk version?

Regardless, can the lockup glitch p-l-e-a-s-e be patched?

If the drain patch does not work, avidemux needs to be run under gdb to see where it is stuck
i.e.
gdb /usr/bin/avidemux3_qt5
** Do your stuff until it locks ***

CTRL+C
bt

And the please post the output

I have avidemux3_qt4 installed not qt5.  That's what's available in the Jessie/Devuan merged repos.  I had to install gdb.  This is the output.

But I might not have done something properly.

I'm going to try to recompile the zipped 'master' files I downloaded from your git for qt5 with that one line commented out.  Maybe something wasn't right the first time.

Thanks!  That worked.  Output is attached.

I have also tried to recompile from the "master" source that I downloaded from git. It wouldn't make so I installed libqt4-dev and crossed my fingers. For the first time it made the debs! But GDebi complained:

Code Select Expand

Error: Dependency is not satisfiable avidemux3-core-runtime (>=2.6.911)

*edit*  Since that attempt, I found the list of dependencies on this page,  I was missing some -dev pkgs.  Tried again and it built the qt4 debs but still getting the same error above.  I also tried building for qt5 and nothing really happened.

[mean]

it is stuck in snd_pcm_drain
Are you sure you commented it out ?

[golinux]

it is stuck in snd_pcm_drain
Are you sure you commented it out ?

Yes!

Code Select Expand

/* Stop PCM device after pending frames have been played */
   /* snd_pcm_drain(pcm_handle); */

First, a friend who is more savvy than I rebuilt the debs but with dpkg-buildpackage.  Didn't seem to make a difference but maybe that was because of the way it was built. The debs that I built are deficient.  Only audio options were dummy and oss.  And many icons missing from the nav bar.  I have tried working off of the 'master' zip file on your site and also the source from the Devuan merged repos.  No joy.  I really know very little about compiling from source so have no idea why it's not working.  I've been using avidemux for a very long time and never had a problem before now.  This is pretty depressing . . .

Maybe it is installed at 2 difference places and you still load the old one
what is the output of
find / -name "libADM_av_alsa*.so"

Nope.  All installed in /usr/lib/  Note that only libADM_av_alsa.so is found in my Wheezy avidemux install.

Another friend just compiled 2.6.10 for Jessie.  It installed but unfortunately has the same lockup problem.  I wonder why no one else is experiencing it?  Guess they don't mind Lennart breaking everyone else's toys. There are also some missing icons (like input-output view).  The same thing happened to me when I compiled.

I will add the missing pkgs when I can find the time.  Hopefully, it will make a difference.

I tried to build it again (with that line commented out) after installing the 25 or so missing pkgs on Jan Gruuthuse's list.  It built rather quickly and installed without a hitch.  Version in 'About' is 2.6.911.

Then the moment of truth . . . THE GLITCH WAS GONE!  Also gone are all the 'Preview mode' options on the Main toolbar!! Is there anyway to get those back?  I use them quite a bit. Couldn't find them in any other menu.

Of course, I haven't actually tried to edit any video yet.  That is for another day. 

The list of deps should really be posted somewhere on your site.  If that had been available, it would have saved days of frustration.  And references to the Gtk version should probably be removed (though I may actually try to build it again just for giggles).

All your help has been very much appreciated!

So how about getting the Preview Modes back??
