Some months ago i was using this core because i could watch videos with shaders. It was nice to watch Longplay videos with CRT shaders for instance. However, lately the core doesn’t work. It crashes with every single video after a few seconds, with or without shaders. I even found an older version of FFMPEG (about 3 months older) and it still crashes.
Is this a known thing?
I’m using 1.3.4 stable.
Video playback is built-in now, so try loading a video file directly without loading or detecting a core first. If that crashes, too, get a us a log and we’ll look into it.
It works fine for me here, but I only have a short video to test, so YMMV.
Still got the same issue too, that’s with Nvidia Geforce 770 win7 x64.

[QUOTE=hunterk;40661]Video playback is built-in now, so try loading a video file directly without loading or detecting a core first. If that crashes, too, get a us a log and we’ll look into it.
It works fine for me here, but I only have a short video to test, so YMMV.[/QUOTE] Sorry, i don’t know where the log is located…
I updated my NVIDIA drivers today (i have a GTX 960) it still crashes no matter if i don’t load/detect a core.
I have Windows 7 64bit GTX 960 i5 4670 RetroArch 1.3.4 stable Latest ffmpeg core but i tried an older one too (from a backup i had), still crashes.
Thanks for the reply.
Hmm. Dunno what’s up, then. It works fine here with the latest nightly and I had someone with an Nvidia card try and it worked for him, as well, using a nightly from a couple of weeks ago.
Can one of you get a backtrace with gdb when it crashes? That log doesn’t seem to indicate any issues, AFAICT 
I’ve actually had this same issue too, used to have no problems on Windows 8, I upgraded to 10, hated it, then I went back to Windows 7 x64. Now any video crashes after 10 seconds or so. This is what I get. I’m on Nvidia also newest drivers with a Geforce 555m

Maybe it’s an incompatibility issue with Nvidia?

@Tatsuya79
Looks good 
Can you get one using the built-in video playback? You can copy/paste the contents to pastebin/pastie/hastebin/whatever and then just paste a link here.
No idea how to do that… I’m just doing “load content” -> “select file” and opening the video.
I see nothing about ffmpeg except for recording in driver menu…
Oh, right, I mis-read the backtrace. I’m not sure what’s up, but we’ll look into it. Thanks for the logs!
Thanks for the logs, i hope it gets fixed
Any news about the issue? I tested the same setup (1.3.4 stable) on an older PC (Core 2 Duo, 8800GT) and it doesn’t crash.
Maybe it has something to do with the newer NVIDIA drivers?
No, we haven’t been able to reproduce it, so we haven’t been able to investigate it any further.
Did you try to test it on a recent NVIDIA card with recent drivers? This is where it crashes for me.
I didn’t personally, but some folks in IRC did and couldn’t reproduce. Not that I don’t believe you, of course, we just couldn’t reproduce it to move any further toward a fix.
Is there anything i can do in order to find what causes this myself? I updated both the nightly and my NVIDIA drivers and it still crashes. Seems like i’m stuck with this error and playing videos through RA was somewhat important to me because i could use the shaders…
I tried using retroarch_debug.exe but i don’t know how to use it in order to find errors.
EDIT: It’s not a Windows problem. I booted windows 10 from my other partition (i have a dual boot setup) and tested RA there too. Still crashes even though it has a bit older drivers.
So it’s either the graphics card (GTX 960) or some setting in RetroArch.
EDIT 2: None of the other video drivers work. Only GL. If i try to use others it either crashes or i see a black screen.
Yeah, XMB requires GL. You can try changing the menu driver to RGUI and switch to d3d driver, which should still work with some/many shaders.
If you run retroarch_debug.exe from a command window (shift+right-click in the retroarch folder window and choose ‘open command window here’) like this: retroarch_debug.exe --menu --verbose it’ll print any errors to the console window.
Thanks.
Video playback crashes with all drivers i tried.
RetroArch_debug shows this:
It keeps repeating these lines very fast for a few seconds of playback and it crashes.
Edit: More testing. I downloaded RetroArch version 1.2.2 and it also crashes.
