[OpenIndiana-discuss] nvidia error occurs some times when vlc locks up

[russell]

Hi,

I have noticed with the VLC 2.2.8 if I try and skip forward through an 
mp4 or mkv file that VLC can freeze both the video/audio.

Since upgrading to the latest Nvidia Driver 
NVIDIA-Solaris-x86-415.18.run, I am now also getting occassionally the 
following error

Dec  9 12:31:43 tesla nvidia: [ID 702911 kern.notice] NOTICE: NVRM: GPU 
at PCI:0000:04:00: GPU-45966624-72d0-7339-15d0-465f4339b7ff
Dec  9 12:31:43 tesla nvidia: [ID 702911 kern.notice] NVRM: Xid 
(PCI:0000:04:00): 31, Ch 00000011, intr 10000000. MMU Fault: ENGINE 
NVDEC HUBCLIENT_MSPDEC faulted @ 0x1_03114000. Fault is of type 
FAULT_PTE ACCESS_TYPE_READ

Googling the error, appears to indicate it relate to ffmpeg interaction 
with the Nvidia driver.

Regards

Russell
