Hi,

This bug was first found with version 0.29 and is still present in the
latest master. mythtv-setup resets all the inputcard videodevice to the
same value after I modify one card or add one card. Here is the situation
after saving the changes in mythtv-setup. The problem is seen in both
tables capturecard and inputgroup.


{{{

I just wanted to check if the new version would allow me to set some
new parameters on the existing card 27. When it proposed a videodevice,
**I had to select "new"** and retyped the old value. This is what the
table is supposed to look like:

Comment:

This is a problem that I cannot reproduce on today's master.

I have tested this by first changing the channel_timeout of the last card,
cardid 6, from 10000 to 11000 and then by changing the channel timeout of
the first card, cardid 1, from 10000 to 12000.
This is the result:

I suggest to delete all capturecards and create all capture cards again
with the mythtv-setup gui only. If the problem is still there, please give
an exact sequence on how to produce the problem so that it is possible to
recreate it.

Comment:

It is possible to segfault mythtv-setup with the following sequence:
- select existing capture card
- change "DVB device" name with "New entry" to a non-existing device
- Save then Exit
- select same capture card again
- change "DVB device" name to existing device, either with "New entry" or
by selecting a device from the list
- Save then Exit
Now there can be a segfault, or, when running with valgrind, lots of
errors appear. This is likely to be the cause of the reported problem. To
be continued.

Comment (by Klaas de Waal):

The memory access errors leading to a segmentation fault can be reliably
created by the following sequence:
- select 2. Capture cards
- select (New capture card)
- Select New capture card
- Select DVB-S satellite card
- Select DiSEqC (Switch LNB and Rotor Confguration)
- Select LNB as Device Type
- Save then Exit
- select 2. Capture cards
- Select the same DVB-S satellite card created earlier
- Change DVB device to a device that is not a DVB-S card
- Save then Exit
When running with valgrind, an impressive amount of valgrind errors appear
now about memory that is accessed after it is free'ed.
If valgrind is not running there is often a segmentation fault now.

This is now temporarily fixed by not deleting the structure that is
mentioned in the valgrind messages. This does create a minor memory leak
but as this code is only used in mythtv-setup that is of little
consequence, and a memory leak is better then a segmentation fault.

Fix segfault in capture card editor

There can be a segmentation fault in the capture card editor
of mythtv-setup when configuring DVB-S satellite cards.
This happens when a capture card is changed from DVB-S,with
a configured input type of LNB (anything but not Unconnected),
to another type of DVB card.
After the capture card has been changed to a non-DVB-S type and
the DiSEqC tree has been deleted, a "Save then Exit" refers
to the already deleted DiSEqC tree. This creates a segmentation fault.
There are many more things to fix in the DiSEqC configuration
code and once this is done the "delete m_root" can be enabled again.
For now it is better to have a memory leak than a segmentation fault.

Comment:

Although in researching this ticket a segmentation fault has been found I
cannot find a way to reproduce the problem of this ticket, about the
rewrite of the "videodevice" field to /dev/dvb/adaptor0/frontend0 for all
cards except the one that is edited.

As suggested before, please delete all capturecards and create all capture
cards again with the mythtv-setup gui only. Change the capture card device
only by selecting from the list of devices instead of manually typing in a
device name.

If the problem is still there, please give an exact sequence on how to
produce the problem so that it is possible to recreate it.

Comment:

I cannot reproduce the problem described here and there is no further
information given about how to reproduce this bug on the latest master.
Therefore this ticket is now closed. If the problem appears again then
please re-open this ticket or create a new one.
