Everytime i stop playing a video XBMC restarts itself and i am back in the home screen.

Cause of XBMC restart i have 2 debug logs attached:
Log 1, playing video until stopping it and XBMC stops itself (or maybe crashes): http://pastebin.com/pJvhEUYP
Log 2, XBMC restarted: http://pastebin.com/WmApmVc9

I am not sure if this is by intention or maybe a crash of XMBC.
I would prefer a normal stopping of a video and not a restart.

If nothing important in your settings, can you remove the directory /root/.xbmc and reboot ?
Try to play video without installing any addons.

Doesn’t help.
I start XBMC clean, without any special settings, only added a smb share for video from my server and started playing it -> XBMC still restarts afer I stoped the video.

As i mentioned in the other post, no change of my issue with XBMC restarting/crashing after stopping a video.

Please, test this iso : http://download.openbricks.org/geexbox-devel-20111220-r13636-i386.iso
with video on usb or cd, if no crash, the problem is with samba share

the new versions are extremly buggy.
XBMC is crashing very often.

BTW I try the video issue with UPNP client in XBMC -> problem still exists.

I think i let you fix some basic thinks before i get back.

The result is better. No problem while playing a video/stopping.

I also tried the Live TV feature with TVheadend.
Sorry to say that it is not running as well as in my “hand made” ubuntu setup.
But anyway, it is good to see that you are working on it and i am looking forward to have a well running Live TV feature in Geexbox.

i used the tvheadend on geexbox not on a separat machine.
seems to be there is an issue with the satellite config on your geexbox release (muxes are not set up correctly while choosing the right satellite and connecting it to a LNB config) … i had to copy all the muxes from my other machine to tvh on geexbox to make it work (somehow). But Xbmc is crashing often while watching live tv, maybe because of tvheadend and maybe because the drivers of my technotrend S2-3200 which are buggy since kernel 2.6.38…
Maybe Xbmc is crashing because of the faulty drivers.

As i said, the combination is running well on my other test machine (with another DVB-S card and without geexbox) … and with amazing zapping speed like 0,5 sec per channel swtich.
