Video playing on android stops after couple of minutes

[Milan Nikolic]

Hello,

I am trying to use your program on android. I have managed to compile it for android-x86, but after couple of minutes of playing video (I use vitamio framework with ffmpeg), it freezes and http server doesn't respond anymore.
I saw this issue steeve/libtorrent#2 and tried to compile --without-pool-allocators and tried to use -no-sparse but it doesn't help.
I also build it against latest (svn) libtorrent, is there anything else I can try? When that freeze happens I can see with du command that files are still downloading/growing.
Looking at that issue, I was under the impression that it works for you on fat32. Can you give me some pointers?

Thanks,
Milan

Whatever you do, don't download to FAT32, libtorrent and sparse files don't work together. This might be your issue.
This is a FAT32 issue.

Also, Android is kind of unstable.

Ok, I knew there will be problems with FAT32, wanted to try with -no-sparse.
Luckily, I tried with you arm build from xbmc plugin and with it there are no problems. So, I compiled this revision 288d0c3 and it works now with my build. I guess there are some changes after refactoring that hurt android.
