Ardour hangs after stopping playback #549
Comments
I'm not sure whether this is the same issue but Ardour 6.3 and the whole system has graphical freezes independent of whether notes are added or more MIDI tracks are added. Soon after loading sfizz, Ardour (and I believe the whole system) exhibits graphical window freezes that last several seconds or more. O/S: Linux Mint XFCE |
This might be fixed in the latest, do you mind to try it again? |
No freezes on start/stop playback for me on Ardour 6.5 with the develop branch. On the other hand, instantiating 10 sfizz tracks takes longer than what I'd find comfortable, but once instantiation is done it seems OK. |
No freezes here now for me on dev branch. |
Let's assume this is solved then, we can reopen if necessary. |
I was about to open a new issue, until I found an existing one already. It actually still happens to me, any time I hit stop. Apparently it started after I recently upgraded my Fedora installation to 34, which now ships Ardour 6.8. It don't remember this happening before, with sfizz 0.4.0 and Ardour 6.3, while the same sfizz version started to cause the issue, which caused me to wonder whether the issue was in sfizz or Ardour. Upgrading sfizz to the 1.0.0 release version didn't fix the issue for me, and neither did installing the latest I can confirm that it seems to be related to how many sfizz instances are loaded. In my case, a larger orchestral template locks the UI for about 20 seconds, as you can see from this log excerpt (10.57.11 is about when I stopped playback):
Disabling all plugins and enabling one at a time for testing showed how the issue starts to become noticeable after ~3/4 instances active at the same time. |
Just double checking whether you want me to open a new issue for this, and in general if there's any additional info I can provide. Thanks! |
Ardour hangs for a while after stopping playback. The duration of that freeze seems to be proportional to the amount of sfizz instruments that are used.
This is a regression that was introduced with 846dd6d "Load a default SFZ if path empty". On 0.5.1 (currently 1ebed26), after reverting 846dd6d (and fixing the resulting conflicts), the problem disappears and sfizz appears to work correctly (no issues after working on a project for some hours).
Operating system: Gentoo Linux
Steps to reproduce:
Selecting sfz files in the sfizz plugin does not seem to affect it.
Reported by midgard on IRC, they remain available for troubleshooting.
