Image Download Fails

[twol]

OK.

Probably unrelated, but I cannot play large high bitrate 4K 24hz videos copied onto the Quad4K (they play ok on the Zgemma H7).
Handbraked to lower bitrates they play ok.

This may be down to differences in the manufacturer's drivers, but noticed that Zgemma has a 268Mb "Manufacturer Enabled Swap Eabled at Startup" compared to the 553Mb on the Quad4k.
Both have 1GB ram.
There is a "Disable Autostart" option for this swapfile, but it immediately re-enables itself on both boxes.
If this is meant to happen, why is this option available?

Probably down to drivers.
disable swap…. Was changed because user wanted to use separate (user defined) swap, so code changed to allow that. Would need to look at code, but if only 1 swap(manufacturer) then I probably just took that as required.

Are you sure that is what happens.
Disabling autostart is not the same as switching it off now (which is what the Deactivate option does).
When I Disable Autostart that option text changes to Enable Autostart.

The option is there in case you want to change the setting. Having a swap file does no harm (does nothing, really) if you don't need it, but might save the system from crashing if you do

Yes, the tick in the autostart box disappears then reappears immediately on both boxes (both running latest openvix) when you press the yellow remote button.
They are both "Manufacturer Enabled Swap Enabled at Startup".
There is no "Deactivate" option.

I just thought the different swapfile sizes might have been affecting the memery available for larger video files.

[birdman]

Ah. You have a system with "manufacturer defined swap". As I recall, that means it gets turned back on even if you switch of off.

It's "only" file space (not memory) and corresponds to a few minutes of video in terms of storage space.

Flashed free slot with 6.4.010 and was able to download all 4 latest e2 images one after the other without having to restart gui.
After settig up uni-cable lnb, re-scanning channels and re-installing plugins and settings (all by hand, not from settings file), I tried again. The second download stuck at 0% and I had to restart the gui.

can I have debug log from that failure.......... in future (if not enabled) ensure you have debug logs defined and post here.

Just to note, I experienced this today on my gbue4k.
To diagnose the refresh rate issue (another thread) I downloaded 6.4.010, intending to clean flash to another multiboot slot for testing. I thought I may as well download 6.4.009 as well so that I could revert to that to fix the other issue if needed. But it got stuck waiting. I couldn't back out, I turned the power off to get out of it.

Just to add- I also changed skin to magic (less harsh on OLED), but even when Ichanged it back to default skin it failed after first or second consecutive download.
These are the plugins and tuner settings.

Here are the latest debug logs, one before and one after it failed to download a second image (stuck at 0/100).

Thanks, need to think about this

Again would love to see logs…. this is a tricky issue and apparently (so far) on gb boxes( which is where I see it, no where else)… I need your log to see if you have same issue as goo or something else….the issue is in same area, just shows differently
