623460 - Permaorange - reftests/ogg-video/encoded-aspect-ratio-1.html on WinXP

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Core :: Layout, defect)

Description

[Phil Ringnalda (:philor)]

Attachment: reftest log

http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/showlog.cgi?log=Firefox/1294284735.1294285989.30858.gz#err11 or any R in the WinXP opt line in http://tbpl.mozilla.org/?noignore=1. The sweetener for "yet another orange" is that once we green up the WinXP reftests, then we get to get rid of the constantly timing out Win2K3 slaves that plague your every checkin.

No idea what's wrong with this test: both images look to me like identical black rectangles with red borders, but apparently they are utterly different.

Comment 1

Annotated as failing in http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/2147912ec8e1, so we're no longer blocking releng.

This isn't actually a video problem, it's like all the other dependencies of bug 623450, a failure because we do have some sort of hardware acceleration going on, but the harness doesn't know that we do.

Comment 2

[Daniel Holbert [:dholbert]]

WONTFIXing, since this is WinXP-specific and we're desupporting XP as noted in bug 1315083 comment 0.

(Aryx is removing the reftest.list annotation for this failure in bug 1334898.)

Comment 3

[Daniel Holbert [:dholbert]]

Actually, it looks like the annotation was removed here in bug 1210357 (perhaps because that patch fixed the WinXP failures?)
 https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/2b5f03141ff7#l22.12

So maybe this was really FIXED? *shrug*

Anyway, the comment with this bug number was left behind in that commit -- and Aryx is removing that bug reference in bug 1334898.
