Startup stuck at [osd/libass] Setting up fonts... for 60 seconds #2071
Comments

OK, I did the following:
Debug shows the following 3x times:
I'll wait to see if the 60 second happens again with fonts.conf present. My mpv.conf is pretty much empty. |
This is a problem with libass using fontconfig. As soon as the native osx and win32 backends are merged, it won't have this problem anymore. Will probably take a few weeks. |
Got the same problem as an Archlinux user. But finally, I found the cause is: After adding these two lines in <?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<!-- $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fontconfig/fonts.conf for per-user font configuration -->
<fontconfig>
...
<cachedir>/var/cache/fontconfig</cachedir>
<cachedir prefix="xdg">fontconfig</cachedir>
...
</fontconfig> |
The startup is stuck multiple times on this very line:
Eventually it finishes in about 60 seconds. It does build up some kind of cache, because if I quit and start again it works instantly. But somehow this bug keeps happening again and again. It's like if the font cache directory is being cleaned or rebuilt every day or something.
I have a top-of-the-range Retina MBP 15 with PCI-E SSD and i7 processor, waiting 60 seconds for an app startup should really not happen. I've tried both official latest release and ChrisK's latest build.
OS X 10.9.5.
