I'm having crashing problems with the latest stable (3.40-r1) that I didn't have before. Firefox simply crashes randomly, sometimes on the first mplayerplug-in instance, sometimes after opening a couple of them... According to the mplayerplug-in changelog this should be fixed in 3.45. The update should be prioritized since the latest stable actually isn't. Thanks Reproducible: Always
Well, I did the bump, but without more information about your system I can't say why it's crashing... Hope the bump helps.
The update fixes the problem. I suggest the stabilization of this version. Sorry for the missing info and the delay. Complementation of the last message: Steps to reproduce the problem: 1-Start firefox. 2-Open up a website with several downloadable sounds (wavs with my test) 3-Open several instances of the mplayerplug-in in different tabs, 4-If nothing happens, close some of the tabs and open a couple more. 5-After a while the browser crashes and closes instantly or hangs without response. emerge info: Portage 2.1.2.11 (default-linux/x86/2007.0, gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.5-r4, 2.6.21-gentoo-r4 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.21-gentoo-r4 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 2.00GHz Gentoo Base System release 1.12.9 Timestamp of tree: Tue, 14 Aug 2007 19:50:01 +0000 dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.0.33-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.4.4-r4 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r6 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10 sys-devel/binutils: 2.17 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.16 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.23b virtual/os-headers: 2.6.21 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=pentium-m -O2 -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/gconf /etc/php/apache2-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cgi-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cli-php5/ext-active/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/splash /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-march=pentium-m -O2 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="distlocks metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://darkstar.ist.utl.pt/gentoo/ http://cesium.di.uminho.pt/pub/gentoo/ ftp://mirrors1.netvisao.pt/gentoo/" LANG="en_US.UTF-8" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages --filter=H_**/files/digest-*" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/portage/local/layman/science /usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://darkstar.ist.utl.pt/gentoo-portage" USE="X alsa crypt cups gif jpeg nptl opengl perl png python readline sdl sse sse2 ssl tiff truetype unicode x86 zlib" ALSA_CARDS="intel8x0 intel8x0m" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse synaptics" KERNEL="linux" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="fbdev fglrx vesa radeon" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
