OpenVG Crash with recent firmwares...

[ajstarks]

Odd. I have not touched that code in some time.

[davidecat]

yes, I guessed it's weird but there is no any other explanation... :-)
4.4.33 date is 20 Nov 2016, 2 years ago... maybe other more recent firmwares work, i did not test all...
You can easily recreate the issue, run clip.c with a fullscreen omxplayer fullHD video...
Any suggestion?
Thank you for your help an and by the way thank you and congratulations for your great job.

just rebuild clip.c on 4.14.78-v7+. No issues.

@ajstarks Have u rebuild this version with the for(;;) loop? This one i have attached in my first message.
I just tried again, RPI3B, raspbian Stretch, 4.14.78-v7+, this clip.c (with the loop), omxplayer with 1 fullHD video (around 6minutes long), it crashes randomly, sometimes after 20 minutes, sometimes after 1 hour or more...
With 4.4.33 on the same RPI3B it works continously...
Thank you again for your help.

edit
of course i believe is something related to the firmware, not to your library...

[ajstarks]

FYI: Running your looping example with the latest kernel (4.14.78-v7), (without the omxplayer) for about 1 hour.

Thank you @ajstarks.
It runs perfectly without omxplayer... If u try with omxplayer and a fullHD video, it will become unstable..

Hey are there any updates on this issue? Surely OpenVG should be able to run along side a fullHD video
