new xbmc-pvr-addons -20131023git freeze XBMC 12.2-5

After updating the xbmc-pvr-addons from the arch repository, XBMC hang with the error on /var/log/messages.log :
Error in `/usr/lib/xbmc/xbmc.bin': malloc(): memory corruption:

After return to the previous version xbmc-pvr-addons-12.0_Frodo with pacman -U, all works fine. I think the new version of the pvr addons  have compatibility issues with XBMC 12.2-5.

I have to second this.  My XBMC crashes when loading any of the PVR addon.  I tried TvHeadend and MythTv; both crash as soon as LoadDLL is called.

Same here. Downgrading to 12.0_Frodo-1 temporarily fix the problem.

It'll be a day or two before I have access to the machine with the tuner in it to test this properly, but I just updated to the new xbmc-pvr-addons 20131106git-1 on my laptop and can at least load the plugins without XBMC freezing or immediately unloading them. Looks promising!

Re: new xbmc-pvr-addons -20131023git freeze XBMC 12.2-5

So let me understand:
xbmc-pvr-addons - the stable release which in PKGBUILD is extracted from
source=("git://github.com/fetzerch/xbmc-pvr-addons.git#branch=frodo")
works with the current 12.3 stable release?
Please correct me.
I have been racking my brains to get this to work...see my post today:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=176192

Please do help me out.
Thanks

I do not have any more problems with the packages xbmc 12.3-8 and xbmc-pvr-addons 20131106git-1 on the default arch repository.
I don't think your problem is related to this one,
