Crash on switching busses
4 October, 2019 - 15:45 — Gauderbock
Hello,
When I try to change a track's output bus Qtractor crashes. Both audio and midi, and whether it's creating a new bus or selecting an existing one.
And then it usually takes a reboot to get qtractor back at all... (I've sometimes found the right combination of processes to kill but not always)
Any ideas?
Cheers

re. Crash on switching busses
hi, before anything else, the offending version (qtractor -v) would be welcome...
evermore as important: detailed information or steps to reproduce the crash(es) should be interesting, if not mandatory in the first place :)...
as you may now gather, that's not been the case 'round here, but I'm sure you have some (hard) evidences to show, don't you?
cheers
I'll find the hard evidence,
I'll find the hard evidence, but of course, the curse of the irreproducible is strong tonight.
FWIW running mostly under NSM, the crashes seem to kill Jack too.

re. Does this help?
not much! sorry
it would be more interesting if you run with a debug symbols build (
./configure --enable-debug)...also, some details or description of the session you're working on at the time of the crash would be also helpful, as the last steps that lead to the situation;
how many tracks or buses are there already? are there any plugins on those buses? are there any send/return or aux-send inserts? etc.
from the number of threads shown on the gdb output above you seem to have a fair number of audio tracks and clips running there, so the next question would be whether the issue only happens in this particular session or does it often occur with any other in general? can you make it a minimal session, with the least of complexitity, that the problem is reproducible, would be extremely valuable, but that might not be easily probable, I know.
thanks anyway.

re session details and crash
re session details and crash example, probably easiest to email you a screen record I've just done?
It seems to happen across all types of projects. I'll try to capture a minimal session example. And if still no joy I'll do the debug compile.
re. session details and crash
a screencast would be interesting and on a minimal session example would be even better.
please try saving it as an archive/zip bundle (.qtz) and attach both here on the top post if possible.
cheers
minimal .qtz attached to the
minimal .qtz attached to the top post. I can't attach the minimal screencast action as it's mp4 and 1.6Mb...
re. minimal .qtz attached
got that and what are the exact steps involved to trigger a crash?
creating, switching and removing MIDI buses here on the given session, and nothing strange nor horrific happens...
you can send your screen recording attached to a mail or dropped into some temporary file upload service (eg. file.town) ?
cheers & thanks
Happy to send screencast by
Happy to send screencast by email - anything@rncbc.org ?
re. Happy to send screencast
replace "anything" for "rncbc" and it should be fine :)
thanks
k sent.
k sent.
re. Crash on switching busses
ok. got that minimal session .qtz and the from the screencast you sent I could see that the crashes happens after a few dozen of bus switches and on my test it seems to be more probable when the audio meters are opted-in for the MIDI tracks plugin-chain.
I'll try to investigate and come to a better fix than telling you to turn-off the MIDI tracks audio-meters.
thank you for all your patience
cheers
[UPDATE 1:] found some old potential crap in the Track > Track Properties... dialog, wrt. changing current output bus on the fly: might be related to the crashes you report (as seen on the screencast you sent or maybe only partially mitigated (qtractor >= 0.9.9.81git.a90be8); please test and tell whether the odds are lower ;) tia.
[UPDATE 2:] make it qtractor >= 0.9.9.83git.ed8f41 !
Sorry for the delay, a busy
Sorry for the delay, a busy time.
I've compiled with the debug flag. Does this help at all?
Minimal project, one track, synthv1 plugin, created two test midi busses and switched them about until it died. (on a real project, it most often segfaults immediately rather than taking several bus switches).

re. Sorry for the delay, a busy...
crap! :) I thought this one was nailed :S
and does it still crash when you turn the MIDI track/buses audio monitor meters off?
byee
Yes, I have the meters turned
Yes, I have the meters turned off under options, and it still crashes.
FWIW I usually run qtractor with NSM, that's probably not relevant, but just for completeness...
re. Yes, I have the meters turned
I mean on a MIDI track plugins, right-click menu > Audio > Meters is turned off ?
Yes, meters turned off.
Yes, meters turned off.
In the same section, dedicated outputs selected (automatically from options setting), but no automatic connection.
re. Crash on switching busses
that's strange
having the MIDI tracks/buses audio output meters turned off, specially on the MIDI track that you're switching output buses, should not trigger the issue,... anyway...
can you try again and experiment away with qtractor >= 0.9.10.1git.6990a0 (todays git head master) ?
cheers
Yep will do over the next day
Yep will do over the next day or so.
