Client Crashes Repeatedly When Selecting Betsize Field

@Insideman can you upload the recording? You can upload it so only I can see it, if you use the yellow Choose Files button just below the “log files” text 

I've uploaded the file as per your instructions. The timestamps for the video file are 1:40 and 1:53.

I also played another 90 minute Banzai session today without clicking into the betsize field and there were no crashes.

Thanks!
Has it been smooth sailing since the original report, or have you had further crashes?

Was suspecting a stuck button (stuck in onpressdown, logically, not physically stuck) could cause it, cause my wireless logitech keyboard gets that from time to time, having a button stuck until I press it again. This might not be @Insidemans case tho. And I've managed to replicate the crash 100% of the time by just having a letter pressed while selecting and deselecting the bet amount. Works with numbers too not just letters,  works on any game mode, cashgame, banzai, hexa. Does not crash in popup buyin textboxes! You have to be in BB mode, if you're in chips mode then it does not crash in any game mode. Might be worth seeing if it still crashes for you if you set it to chips @Insideman to see if it's related.

These are the crash messages, only seen the last one with this bug:

ExecuteRelaxCEFEngineAsChildProcess - CefExecuteProcess exited with 0

<process started at 15:40:29.082 has terminated with 0xc0000409 (EXCEPTION_STACK_BUFFER_OVERRUN)>

The "[CEditBoxStub::InputChar] check failed by mask" might play a part, but just spamming this error is not sufficient, it requires selecting the bet number, also this error happens in buyin textboxes too where it does not crash. Also, this error happened even when typing just numbers which should not fail right before the crash, possibly due to the action of selecting, skipping the input check and passing the unsafe input directly to a variable or the method dealing with bb to chips conversion

I don't usually play Banzai, I was just doing the black belt mission to collect the Germany team. I haven't noticed it in other formats that I've played since then. I think my usage of the betting field also varies depending on the format. I can throw in another session of Banzai tomorrow. Feelsbadman seems to have some interesting thoughts on what might be causing the issue. I generally play with BB stacks on to reduce mental processing overhead. That makes me think that there is some translation layer involved when doing that, that might be triggering the crashes as well (Feelsbadman also implied ths). I will leave it on for now, for when I play Banzai tomorrow and try not to avoid the betsize field.

Thanks for the input. It doesn't sound like BB mode is the culprit here.

So, my update today after playing approximately 45 minutes of Banzai with the special Windows client is that I wasn't able to reproduce crashes by using Feelsbadman's methodology (assuming I did it correctly). I tried pressing a key on my number pad before selecting the betsize field. This didn't work, it just spammed the number and didn't crash. I tried the same with my keyboard (HyperX Alloy Origins 60) using a letter. This didn't spam a letter (as I imagine is normal) and it also didn't crash whilst selecting and deselecting the bet size. All in all I made an effort to use my number pad, but was unable to provoke any crashes. All of this was done in BB mode.

I should add that what I think I typically do (and when the crashes happened) when selecting the bet size is to double-click and not select by moving the mouse cursor. I've tried to do this deliberately, but the client also doesn't crash. For me at least, there doesn't seem to be a clear trigger that is 100% reproducible.

Another example of crashing the client with the textbox, same as above. I have the number 2 pressed and I'm just clicking the bet input field to select it. This doesn't necessarily mean that spamming is a necessity to crash, it might happen without as well, it's just easier to replicate. BTW this is one game, edited out the login downtime, but didn't edit out any of the text box fiddling, this is all I did to get it to crash 4 times. And this crash does not generate a dmp.

I think I gave up too early when trying to replicate your crash method. I didn't spam it for as long as you did in some of your attempts.
