Problems re-initializing EGL stuff

[Aloshi]

So, I've been working on an emulator front-end (GitHub here), and recently rewrote the renderer to use EGL and OpenGL ES. Everything works right, but by the nature of the program, I need to uninitialize the renderer and reinitialize it frequently - every time a game is launched.

What I've noticed that after the third time a game is launched, the renderer stops properly initializing - I just get a black screen. None of my error checks for the EGL methods failing are tripped.

I do get some interesting errors, though:

Code: Select all

723013802: tvservice-client: Failed to connect to TV service: -1
723014284: cecservice-client: Failed to connected to CEC service: -1
723014527: cecservice-client: Failed to connected to CEC async service: -1
726846705: tvservice-client: Failed to connect to TV service: -1
...
Creating surface...
726860689: Display size is 1680x1050.
tvservice-client: TV service failed to send command get_state length 0, error code -1

I'm not expecting anyone to comb through my code and figure out what I'm doing wrong, but does anyone know what these errors could be from? I have no idea what they mean.

Relevant portion of my code (the init() and deinit() functions are what is called, and init is called as init(0, 0)): http://pastebin.com/nhJq9wGN

Does it help if you only call bcmhost_init once?

Apparently that did it. I'll tell Aloshi next time he's online, thanks.

I'll look into it. May avoid future confusion if allow multiple calls to bcm_host_init.

Yep, all fixed! Thanks for the help.

Hello

Excuse me but I am unsure where to exactly insert the call "bcmhost_init" in my code, could you possibly give me a pointer.

I too am having the same TV client error.

I am trying to use a motion sensor to play a video.

Attached the error and my code.
