Movian

Can you provide some more info like Mac OS X version and graphic hardware?
I have a similar problem with blank screen but only when starting in fullscreen and going back to windowed.

I've tested on my mid 2009 MacBookPro (C2D 2.8GHz/8GB )
Machine is running on MAC OSX 10.7.2 with a Nvidia GeForce 9400M with 265MB

During fullscreen the mouse cursor is still visible.

How do I start Showtime fullscreen from the command line ?

If you quit Showtime in fullscreen mode it will start in fullscreen mode.
The x11 interface seams to supports --fullscreen but not the OS X verison yet.

Hmmm

When I switch to fullscreen, the screen goes black.
It then does not accept the cmd-Q to stop Showtime.
It only responds to cmd-F for fullscreen and back.

maurice$ open build.osx/Showtime.app --fullscreen
open: unrecognized option `--fullscreen'
Usage: open [-e] [-t] [-f] [-W] [-R] [-n] [-g] [-h] [-b <bundle identifier>] [-a <application>] [filenames] [--args arguments]
Help: Open opens files from a shell.
      By default, opens each file using the default application for that file.  
      If the file is in the form of a URL, the file will be opened as a URL.
Options: 
      -a                Opens with the specified application.
      -b                Opens with the specified application bundle identifier.
      -e                Opens with TextEdit.
      -t                Opens with default text editor.
      -f                Reads input from standard input and opens with TextEdit.
      -F  --fresh       Launches the app fresh, that is, without restoring windows. Saved persistent state is lost, excluding Untitled documents.
      -R, --reveal      Selects in the Finder instead of opening.
      -W, --wait-apps   Blocks until the used applications are closed (even if they were already running).
          --args        All remaining arguments are passed in argv to the application's main() function instead of opened.
      -n, --new         Open a new instance of the application even if one is already running.
      -j, --hide        Launches the app hidden.
      -g, --background  Does not bring the application to the foreground.
      -h, --header      Searches header file locations for headers matching the given filenames, and opens them.

You probably need to execute the binary directly instead of via open to provide arguments. But as I said the Mac OS X version does not support --fullscreen yet.

$ Showtime.app/Contents/MacOS/showtime -h

Sorry that it took a while before I answer this …

But I'll guess you could be looking for this :

Segmentation fault: 11

The segfault at the end is because I pressed cmd-q

Hope this helps.

Does it crash directly or do you see the interface flash by?

Can you run showtime in gdb and print the backtrace?

Run:

gdb --args Showtime.app/Contents/MacOS/showtime

Once you see the gdb prompt type this:

(gdb) run

Then after showtime has crashes:

(gdb) thread apply all backtrace

Paste the output in a reply.

Usually it does not crash at all .. It is friendly code :-)
It crashes after playing in the settings with the fullscreen option

Here's the gdb output you wanted
@(gdb) run

Uhm, sorry. Didn't realize you did "make dist"
