Keeps "crashing" mid game?

[csenjoyer1337]

Describe the bug

Hey, i am trying to record a demo from Valve matchmaking (premier) the thing is, whenever im recording, it all seems to be going well for first few rounds, then it seems like HLAE crashes or something since the game is not "fast forwarded" and sometimes camera doesnt focus on me. I generated the player sequences using the program, trying to record mp4 since my editing software didnt support avi. Oh also Ffmpeg seems to "uninstall" after every recording session (i need to click the install button and wait again, and when i try using custom path it just says invalid executable)

Demo links

https://mega.nz/file/42BDiJxZ#4tq7_RYHszKv6pzylqItMH6OA59vLu1GXUuHIAfCW6Q

Steps to reproduce

1. Analyze demo
2. Generate sequences
3. Attempt to record in mp4 format

Expected behavior

I'm expecting the sequences to be recorded as normal, however it stops working after a few rounds

How often does this bug happen?

Every time

Additional context

No response

Could you provide more information about how you generated the sequences? (which player, camera...)
I used the "Generate player sequences" button to generate the kills of the player "LaFlame" without any issues.

Oh also Ffmpeg seems to "uninstall" after every recording session (i need to click the install button and wait again, and when i try using custom path it just says invalid executable)

It's related to the recent FFmpeg version 8 release, and it will be fixed in the next release.
In the meantime, you can download the version 7 and select it when enabling the custom location, it should avoid the re-installation loop.

Hey and thank you for the fast response, the player in question is "sam1e". The problem isnt to generate sequences, that's done well. The problem is trying to record them afterwards. As said, it records the first few rounds normally as should, but afterwards i suspect that HLAE crashes since the demo doesnt fast forward itself to the kills.

[akiver]

I tried to generate a video of the kills of "sam1e" and it worked, I generated sequences using the "Generate player sequences" button.

Please send step-by-step how you generate sequences so I can try to reproduce the issue.

i suspect that HLAE crashes since the demo doesnt fast forward itself to the kills.

What's the HLAE version?

[csenjoyer1337]

Hi,

What's the HLAE version?

Same as yours, 2.186.15

Please send step-by-step how you generate sequences so I can try to reproduce the issue.

I open the CS Demo Manager (version 3.14.2) , i drag and drop the demo in the folder, i click "Analyze", that's done after a few seconds, then i open the demo, go to "Video" tab, i click "Generate player's sequences", unselect the default one, and put these settings:
Select player "sam1e"
Event -> Kill
Rounds -> all
POV -> Player
Seconds before each kill to start the sequence -> 3
Seconds after each kill to stop the sequence -> 5
Weapons -> all

Then i set the following:
Width 1920, height 1080, framerate 60
Quality 10, Video container mp4, video codec i leave at libx264
I enable hlae config folder, but don't put anything in there, maybe i misunderstood the faq since i didnt wanna get my game configs overwritten, otherwise i left everything as default. I clicked "Add to queue" and then just Resume. That is it.

Thanks a lot :)

[akiver]

I tried the same configuration without issue.
What happens exactly when it crashes?
Some videos are generated? None?

[csenjoyer1337]

Hey, it is randomly after 1-3 rounds that HLAE does not fast forward the demo, after about an hour of waiting, the game didnt exit itself, and no video was generated.

[akiver]

HLAE does not fast forward the demo

It's not HLAE that executes fast forwards, but the "plugin" - I don't think it's a HLAE issue.

I can't reproduce the issue, but It looks like for some reason, commands (spec player, fast forward...) are not executed after a few rounds.

Could you retry and then upload the logs file of the plugin located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive\game\bin\win64\csdm.log please?
