Blade Onkyo crashes HS3

[frank2010]

Onkyo 2.0.66.0 crashes my HS3 randomly. When it does, the HS/Plugins/Manage page will not load and all HS functionality stops. If I end the process HSPI_BLOnkyo using task manager, the HS/Plugins/Manage page loads. Has this happened to anyone who knows how to repair it?

I have 2 receivers configured:
Model: TX-NR515 (North American model)
Model: TX-NR626 (North American model)
Receiver Polling Seconds 60 seconds

I have 4 integra receivers (uses the same protocols as Onkyo) and have had this happen from time to time when a receiver loses connectivity to the HS computer. My system goes out to lunch what seems like 10 or 15 minutes. The next time it happens, Try this...unplug your receivers, count to 10 and plug them back in. Turning off power to the receiver or unplugging the network cable does not do it. Once you unplug, your server/web pages should start responding again. Once the system becomes responsive again, try restarting the plug-in to finish clearing things up again.

Hi Mr_Resistor, thanks for sharing that information. I wonder if the plugin should be redesigned to solve this lockup problem. If the receivers do not respond, I would expect the plugin to handle an error with a timeout, so that it does not hang the whole system. Does Blade monitor this thread for feedback and future enhancement ideas?

Always best to submit the bug through his website. Let me know if the procedure I described works / thaws out your frozen machine the next time it happens.
