Bugzilla – Bug 959
Softsqueeze uses 100% CPU time
Last modified: 2008-09-15 14:37:04 UTC
As reported last week on mailing list by myself: I also seem to be having a problem that sometimes when Softsqueeze is running and songs change, something thrashes my PC. I have been unable to further diagnose this because the computer becomes completely unusable and I usually have to pull the plug out! But, every time it has occurred I have recently started Softsqueeze and have v6.0 running and a song has just finished. and also Chris Townsend: With the 6.0 branch my softsqueeze clients that are remote from the server consume 100% cpu (on the machine running the softsqueeze) when they reach the end of the playlist. This started happening when I went to the 6.0 branch. I get the message that softsqueeze is written for server 5.4 and I'm running 6.0 when I connect. My softsqueeze is 1.17 which looks like the newest I can get. Let me know if there's any debugging I can turn on for the client to give more info. Thanks.
In the last couple of weeks, I've also had the problem of 100% processor load whenever I press "play" within Softsqueeze. I tracked it down to the fact that I'm using the Java MP3 plugin as the MP3 decoder - if I revert to using JLayer instead, the problem goes away. The Java MP3 plugin used to work fine, so I'm not sure exactly what's changed...
A fix for the OFFSET bug has been checked in as Subversion change 2390.
Thanks Dan - this fix works for me.
