Freezing at end of MKV with 1.54.0

[Vzylexy]

I've been having this same problem in 1.54.0

I've had the same problem with 1.54 and 1.6.

Only seems to be happening within the last 10 seconds of .MKV playback

I'm having the same problem with 1.60.0 (no problem on 1.52.1). At the end of the file PS3MS decoder seems to crash (no ps3 "pause" icon displayed). After that other files i try to read without restarting the server are very unstable (black screen, laggy video...).
It only happens for me on mkv with DTS audio (Keep DTS track checked).
Last lines of debug.log are :

With another file the trace is :

Hope it will help you resolve the problem.
This program is absolutely amazing. Thanks for all your hard work!

I'm having this issue too. It happens with HD and SD MKV files with both 1.54 and 1.6. It freezes right in the last min or less, then skips back after being frozen for a good min or two, then plays random bits of the end of the movie. It seems like it happened after the latest PS3 firmware update, but I'm not entire sure if it was exactly from that point on. I've tried all sorts of stuff, all the transcode engines and nothing works.

I'm necroing this thread to note that this issue is still occurring in 1.70, which I updated to today. As before (7/8/12), reverting back to 1.52.1, because that is the latest version in which this error does not occur.

I am having this issue too with the latest version as of now. I reverted back to 1.53 and still have this problem so went back as far as 1.50 to get it back to normal.

basically, all the mkvs i watch, around 5mins left on the file and a instances of memcode.exe will activate and eat up 100% cpu. then a minute later, another instances of memcode.exe will startup and continue to eat all the cpu process. eventually the video will stop 10-15 seconds short of the finish line.

If i manually end the two memcode task before reaching the end, the video will finish completely. So looks like for some reason ps3m is starting memcode process and is causing the server from finish tsmuxing the whole file.

Same problem here. Looks like a lot of folks have had this issue (for over 6 mos.) Hopefully these bumps will get us some attention.
