seen on win, mac trunk 0419. steps: load the movie above Let it load...sometimes it crashes, sometimes it loads. stack trace similar to other crashes i have seen. Call Stack: (Signature = DIRAPI.dll + 0xa27a7 (0x680a27a7) e737171e) DIRAPI.dll + 0xa27a7 (0x680a27a7) DIRAPI.dll + 0xa1ffb (0x680a1ffb) DIRAPI.dll + 0xa119d (0x680a119d) DIRAPI.dll + 0x9fc8e (0x6809fc8e)
could you please provide a URL
update: windows trunk 0502 , shockwave 8.5 plugin . I see a crasher with same stack trace when it is loading the tank wars game or when I click the PLAY button in "sports|basketball" game. Happens randomly- sometimes game loads, sometimes crashes. maybe realted with 76771
resummarizing. No error messages seen today, just crashing hard a lot of times.

I am crashing hard on today's and y'day's trunk builds. haven't seen the error messages for a while now..but crashing hard. stack trace is not significant too. Call Stack: (Signature = DIRAPI.dll + 0xa27a7 (0x680a27a7) e737171e) DIRAPI.dll + 0xa27a7 (0x680a27a7) DIRAPI.dll + 0xa1ffb (0x680a1ffb) DIRAPI.dll + 0xa119d (0x680a119d) DIRAPI.dll + 0x9fc8e (0x6809fc8e)
btw, crashed on shockwave.com games site
Shrir, what exactly is the bug here? I just the test url and not only does it not crash but it does what it's supposed to. Works great!

i tried some new games on shockwave.com on my windows box ( loop, basketball). the shockwave plugin is n 4.x folder (8.5). I do not have the plugin on my 6.x. on windows, i am just crashing while these games load. On 0507 mac, I sitl see the weird error messages of script error and stuff(and sometimes the games load). But definitely not working on wnidows. Pls retry laoding the same game 3-4 times and you should crash too.
Is this Mac only then? I can't get it to crash on Windows in today's build with the 8.0 plugin. What URL are you trying? Reloading the above testcase does cause Shockwave to "freeze" for a bit in the blue loading page but left alone for a bit, it eventually recovers and works. Shrir, can you attach the Mozilla part of the stack or is that all of it? If that's all of it, without any calls to Mozilla, it's going to be very hard to track down without Macromedia's help.
this is not mac only (have seen the crashes on mac too on earlier builds), and I have the 8.5 plugin on both platforms (in 4.x folder). I am going to retest tomorrow on different windows and mac boxes and see verify this. The stack trace is all I get, nothing significant comes up. Games on other websites work pretty well, nothing crashes with the same build,same plugin.
This crashes while laoding on windows : http://www.shockwave.com/bin/shockwave/content/inklink15/landing.jsp Also, try 'shockwave|Games|Sports|Basketball
