I was able to reproduce this with -threads 7:

After several tries, the output was different from "-threads 1".

has anyone successfully git bisected this ?
what is the first known to be broken and last known to be working revission ?

comment:3 by Carl Eugen Hoyos, 12 years ago

I tested the following command line:

$ ffmpeg -threads n -i 00009.MTS -f framecrc -an out

For n==1, I get an identical out file trying several times, for n==7 I get a different out file on nearly every run on a (single-core SSE2) Pentium M with both git head and 18a7f74 (indicating that this may not be a regression or that I see a different problem).

I was unable to reproduce this issue on a Core-2 Duo.

comment:4 by Michael Niedermayer, 12 years ago

On the box where it can be reproduced does it also happen with asm or optimizations disabled ?
all my tries to reproduce this have failed sofar, valgrind also shows nothing unusual

comment:5 by efenstor, 12 years ago

I am not completely sure yet, but after several tests it seems to me like in the version 0.10.3 the problem is gone. I can only hope it's a consequence of intentional eradication of the bug and not its elusive nature.

Resolution: worksforme
Status: openclosed

It appears noone can reproduce this anymore since 5 months so iam closing it. If someone can reproduce it please reopen and provide as much information valgrind/hellgrind as possible and test disable-asm disable-optimiztaion
thanks!
