Known Issues:

   
  • Occasional reports of problems with SL Voice on Mac and Windows.
  • We're still tracking these issues, but continue to have difficulty consistently reproducing them. If you happen to experience any of the following problems, we would appreciate your help in documenting the circumstances in which they occur:
    1. VWR-12010: Spatial Voice Chat remains in the previous region after a Teleport
      • If you experience this problem, please add a comment to VWR-12010 describing your in-world location and details about how long you were in-world.
    2. VWR-12022: SLVoice.exe will crash, but then recover voice in the same session
      • If you experience this problem, please see VWR-12022 for a way to grab a Crash Dump file so we may investigate!
    3. VWR-12023: After a viewer crash, Voice options and Talk button stay disabled on next relog
      • We only have anecdotal reports of this occurring from our early Resident testers. Please add your comments if it happens to you.
    4. VWR-12024: On some SL accounts, your first login takes 2-3 minutes to connect to Voice
      • We only have anecdotal reports of this occurring from our early Resident testers. Please leave your comments if it happens to you.


  • Possible continued problems with Audio/Voice on Linux (introduced in RC8):
    1. VWR-11759: Linux stops playing audio streams / VWR-11875: No audio stream with OpenAL
      • Streaming audio from parcels may not work without additional preliminary setup of a compatible 32-bit GStreamer on your Linux computer.
      • Please read the file README-linux.txt. Goto Section 3, INSTALLING & RUNNING, and see Section 5, TROUBLESHOOTING for Problem #6.
    2. VWR-11964: Linux music stream has intermittent noises
      • Please see that issue for possible workaround in the secondlife script.
    3. VWR-12136: Voice quality on Linux can be poor (a pulse of crackly noise) with Intel Audio chips, such as Intel ICH7 and ICH8.
      • We are investigating bugs in the voice SDK which degrade the quality of voice on some systems
    4. Linux may have no audio (ambient, UI, gesture sounds, etc) when using a USB headset
      • This problem does not affect Voice over a USB headset.
      • Workaround: An analog headset does not exhibit this problem.
  • A limitation to the 'Hide Selected' feature:
    1. VWR-11860: using Hide Selected: if not in Edit mode, a right-click will not allow you to click the prim behind
      • Workaround: Simply Right-click > 'Edit...' to switch to Edit mode and this feature works correctly.


The full list of issues remaining in 1.22 can be reviewed here in the Public Issue Tracker.

Second Life Public Nightly 1.22.0.101178 - Nov 6th, 2008

This build reports a version of 1.22.0.101178 -- because it is a prototype build of the new codebase that will become our 1.22 series. However you should be aware this is still an alpha build and NOT the finalized code ready for Release Candidate.

NOTE: The following are enabled on this Public Nightly build:

    • This can be disabled from the Advanced menu > Rendering at any time; or
    • It can be disabled prior to login from the \SecondLifeReleaseCandidate\app_settings\settings.xml, by changing the entry for RenderDebugGL to set its Value to 0.
  • Turned on Thread monitoring (Watchdog) during the Release Candidate cycle
    • Thread monitor will detect when the application is frozen for a period greater than 20 seconds and possibly force a crash with detailed logs
    • Thread monitor can be disabled by choosing to never report crashes, or with a command line setting "--set WatchdogEnabled 0"
    • The threshold timing of the thread monitor is set in the file /app_settings/settings.xml under the key "MainloopTimeoutDefault"
