Tried it, stuck again at 66%. Bug is still present in 2.68

[The BS Player]

Hello!

It happens for me to have the same problem. The sound just keeps going but the screen is frozen and I can hear the Win7 error sound every second and it doesn't stop. I cannot close the program either. This is really frustrating. I don't know what I need to do, other than use another video player program.

Could anyone who knows help me, please?

crash bug confirmed in 2.69. The difference is that it stuck at 35% and not the usual 60-70%. The sound kept going, video stopped and there was a nice message "close program". Atleast now i can use bsplayer without task manager! :D

Horrible 4 years old bug... I wonder how is this so unfixable? I continue to use bs player in spite of this bug but I don't watch any longer videos as this bug ruins everything. If thefreeplayerwithtrafficconeassign would also offer searching for subtitles and fixed some layout details, no one would have ever a reason to download bs player...

A quick look at this forums makes me quite sure this bug will not be fixed in the next 10 years, so v l c player, pls add the downloadable subtitles!

After 1 whole year of using PotPlayer, I fully recommend this for any Anime, Movies, TV Shows, any Media whatsoever, it had built in codecs that work flawlessly, but if you wanna be a badass, you can tell it use to anything else like any other codecs you installed.

Last crash happened at 68% (~1:14:00) of the movie. At the frame it stuck there were subtitles showing, but their size was way smaller than i've set (Only on the frozen frame. All the rest were normal size.). So there might be connection with freezing and subtitles and 66%. Not that any of the developers cares...

Still not fixed ?????? after 3-4 years have same bug ..... r.i.p BS Player

[jorooo]

Update: The beep-beep-beep bug still persists in version 2.70 / Windows 7.

I thought every company in the world will fire its developers if they do not fix such general bug for 4 years... Shame for management level too

[yeops]

And this bug still exists in version 2.71

[Alex381]

I have the same problem for years. Here is some useful info for developers.

It crashes on fast forward or rewind in any version of BS Player on Windows 7 Pro or Home 64 bit, on ATI or NVidia VGA, AMD or Intel CPU, many laptops and desktop computers. With or without codec pack, any type of video. Sound keeps playing but video hangs, computer stops responding and everything goes well again after closing BS Player in Task Manager.

I hope this will help.

biggest bug of all: no real update or improvement in years and years, but still taking peoples money for what, outdated software that is loosing long time users to other lesser programs all because of a failure to enable modern codecs. sad day for us all...


i'll check back in another 6 months or years to see the same lack of anything other then a black-hole for people to foolishly pay good money for nothing but heartbreak.

Sorry to disappoint you, but at this moment the reported bug cannot been reproduced. It's a singular problem that can...maybe...be pinpointed if a lot of resources will be involved. This problem can be related to many things, including, but not reduced to...codecs installed, codecs in use, legit version of BSPlayer, DirectX version installed...and many more...

Hi, version 2.75 and did not have any fixed on this problem, but here is the workaround to fix this for ever.

PC specs:
I7 4790K overclocked
GTX 1060 6GB OC version
16 GB DDR3
SSD Samsung 860 pro, 512 GB
TV/Monitor 4K 60 FPS, watch all the time 1080p or 2160p

is not a low end platform and have this problem since 2013 and every bsplayer update still keep this unfixed.

My problems:
1. When bsplayer is opened in background, windows is very slow, chrome is lagging, mouse cursor is lagging, open file is slow, and everything is slow.
2. After a period of time video that i watch is freezing, and crash, and critical error sound is played neverending, and taskmanager is lagging very hard and have bugged display menu.
3. Fast forwarding video or pause it will make bsplayer to crash early. This happen with all kind of video, from 200 mb to 50 gb, mp4, mkv, dose not matter, all was the same for me.

How did i fix it:?See this image:


Wait for vertical blank and Try not to drop frame need to be unchecked, this fix most of problems in video and avoid crashes.
Also
disable Seek for kayframes sems to have a good impact for video performance overall. And set bsplayer to run on Low process priority will avoid making an impact in windows performance.

I test this fix with many video, and many hour of working well, and also with video of 80 Gb and 2160p, with no downside or video problem.

Please make all 4 changes to be sure everything work smoth as is working on me right now. I wait for your feedback.
