HDA crashed Media Server

[leszek]

Occasionally after boot on first opening up a media playing file it crashed the media server and I get an error message and need to kill the media player. After restarting the media server playback works just fine without any crash or problem.

I attached the syslog for details. hrev is 51795 it happened before aswell. Can't remember though when it started (but it is a long standing issue I have)

You are absolutely right. It did not occur to me that blacklisting firewire would fix this issue but it actually does. So for everyone experiencing the issue I created a new file /boot/system/settings/packages with the contents:

Package haiku {
	EntryBlacklist {
		add-ons/kernel/drivers/bin/fw_raw
	}
}

and saved that file. After reboot with the blacklisted fw_raw driver I don't get any crashes anymore with the Media Server.
