There are many reports of this issue in the forums, all from different versions 
of Ubuntu. There is a reported fix, but it does not work.

see issue co 84 blowing up for details, same problem...

Hi guys,

this is more of a "cry for help" rather than a bugreport. I just want to get a 
pointer or two about where to look further from someone who is more skilled in 
using ffmpeg/libav* API than I am.

I have been battling with the issue of getting electricsheep to run correctly 
on my ArchLinux box. As I have posted in ticket #11 I was able to get it to 
compile but once a few sheep are downloaded, the screensaver acts like nothing 
is going on -- nothing gets displayed, not even the window is cleared so the 
screen shows whatever content there was before electricsheep was run.

I spent the last few evenings trying to trace the code in gdb and so far I have 
been able to find out that while the call to avcodec_decode_video2() returns a 
value > 0 (in fact, that value is equal to the size of the packet as defined by 
packet.size member), the flag indicating successful retrieval of the frame 
(called frameDecoded) is always 0 so the rest of the method is skipped and thus 
nothing gets displayed. When I ran electricsheep under gdb, I saw lots of 
threads repeatedly getting started and terminated immediately thereafter.

Having no prior experience with ffmpeg, I googled up a tutorial ( 
http://dranger.com/ffmpeg/tutorial01.html ) and noticed that after the frame is 
allocated by a call to avcodec_alloc_frame(), another step is made before the 
packets are read out and processed. Following the tutorial, I added the code to 
allocate the buffer for the raw image data and bound it to the frame object 
with the call to avpicture_fill(). However, that still doesn't cut it. (Maybe 
this whole step was not necessary since electricsheep has its own way of 
displaying stuff but it was worth a shot :) ).

So that is what I was able to find out up to this point. I'm kinda running out 
of ideas at the moment so if anyone can chime in with their proposals, I'm more 
than willing to listen. :)

Thanks a lot in advance.

Regards, Zbynek

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?


Please provide any additional information below.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Build electricsheep from source following these instructions 
(http://electricsheep.org/node/51)
2. Attempt to set electricsheep as your screen saver under KDE4
3. There is no electricsheep option under System Settings - Display and Monitor 
- Screen Saver.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
An option to set electricsheep as your screen saver should be available. No 
option is present.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
SVN r126, Kubuntu 12.04

Please provide any additional information below.
An ElectricSheep.desktop.kde exists under menu-entries, but it is never 
installed. The proper install location for KDE screensavers is 
usr/share/kde4/services/ScreenSavers/

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Set a DPMS standby/suspend/off timeout on a machine with an X11 server
2. Allow electricsheep to run for at least that amount of time

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The monitors should standby/suspend/turn off. Instead, the monitors stay on.


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

electricsheep v2.7b12 on Linux machines (Fedora 15 and Arch Linux) with an X11 
server. This problem should affect all versions of electricsheep shelling out 
to mplayer to display the screen saver in X11.


Please provide any additional information below.

The:

-nostop-xscreensaver

option should be added to the command-line arguments for mplayer. Other screen 
savers that use mplayer have this behavior, and electricsheep should follow 
suit.

As of yesterday, mplayer was patched (SVN r34074) to start paying attention to 
this option again. At the time of the patch, a regression was introduced that 
made nostop-xscreensvaer the default (and so the option wasn't necessary). This 
regression will be fixed and the default will be stop-xscreensaver. So 
electricsheep needs to make the configuration option explicit.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.log in from the screen saver settings
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
it says; 'member', logged in: no matter what I type in the username and pwd.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
2.7b35b

Please provide any additional information below.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Waiting until the screensaver runs itself...

Using Windows 7 Professional on a Dell Latitude E6430 and ES version 2.7 (Beta 
34). All settings default except increased to 30fps, reverse monitor order and 
independent. 

I'm using 3 screens including the laptop screen. The other 2 are attached using 
a dock and are matching Acer HD monitors.

I keep getting the spinning color wheel and in activity monitor the process 
"windowserver" has pegged out.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Darn, forgot to look at the original version, I just uninstalled and downloaded 
the latest and re-installed ElectricSheep.  Mac 10.8.2

Please provide any additional information below.
I have been having the spinning color wheel problem for a few months and I 
cannot absolutely pin it to ElectricSheep.  Today, finally, I had enough and 
searched on "mac windowserver" and then read the result for those that 
addressed the pegging of the cpu. There were a couple of common threads - Flash 
player and "complicated" screen savers.  I followed the Mac forum instructions, 
uninstalled Flash player, then downloaded and installed from the Adobe web 
site.  Alas, that didn't fix the problem.  So then, thinking of the screensaver 
I uninstalled Sheep and then downloaded/installed from your site.  I have just 
completed that process so I don't know yet if there is any difference.  I 
wanted to send in the issue to see if it struck a bell with anyone or if you 
have heard of anything like this (I searched the forums with no results).  I 
truly enjoy ElectricSheep and have no desire to uninstall permanently.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Launch SettingsGUI.exe
2. Press Run 
3. Press up & down arrow, notice voting appears enabled (sheep icon appears, 
downvote skips)
4. Press f to enter fullscreen
5. Press up & down arrow, notice voting appears to fail (no sheep icon, 
downvote does not skip)
6. Press f to exit fullscreen
7. Press up & down arrow, notice voting appears to continue failing (no sheep 
icon, downvote does not skip). The only way to recover is to close the output 
window and press run in the settings again.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected output is step 3, regardless of fullscreen status
Steps 5 & 7 show the failed behavior

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
V2.7 (beta 33)
Win 7 64-bit

The file ContentDecoder/ContentDecoder.cpp in svn r130 does not compile with 
recent GNU/Linux distributions (I used Debian testing "wheezy", but see also
   http://electricsheep.org/node/51#comment-5107

Apparently, a deprecated ffmpeg interface is used.

The problem disappears if lines 32-34:
#ifdef MAC
   #define USE_NEW_FFMPEG_API
#endif

are replaced by
#define USE_NEW_FFMPEG_API

Instead of checking for macs, it would be preferable to introduce a feature 
check via an autoconf macro to determine the correct interface.

Adding
AC_CHECK_LIB([avformat], [av_open_input_file],
             AC_DEFINE([USE_OLD_FFMPEG_API]),
             AC_DEFINE([USE_NEW_FFMPEG_API]))
to configure.ac, for instance after line 155 (and removing lines 32-34 from 
ContentDecoder.cpp) solves the problem.

Additionally, the call to the function av_close_input_file in the current line 
116 is deprecated and should be replaced by the appropriate call 
(avformat_close_input?) when USE_NEW_FFMPEG_API is defined.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. installation on Linux Mint
2. removal of the gnome_screensaver
3. use of xscreensaver

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The sheep is functioning in demo mode under xscreensaver and in the command 
line but not functioning in real mode. When the screensaver triggers only the 
messages max analyze duration are displayed every 20 seconds.
In the command line mode those lines also are displayed but the display of the 
sheep occurs after a while in a Mplayer window without Full screen option.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
last provided version in the Ubuntu repository (v2.7b12) 

Please provide any additional information below.
Linux Mint is using lightdm instead of gdm.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. install electricsheep on gentoo with ffmpeg
2. try to run the sheep under xscreensaver
3. cry emo tears

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Should render sheep. Instead I see the following output in the console:
CElectricSheep()
CElectricSheep_Linux()
