Error screen: ResizeObserver loop limit exceeded ?!

Hi @pmario this error has been discussed before:

We should definitely do something about it

I clearly agree. That’s why I said “allegedly”. But I didn’t see mention of RSOD. If it’s merely a display timing issue (see the SO post) and displayed only in the console, it’s unlikely to cause data loss.

I’m willing to spend time to fix the underlaying problem. Discussing if it makes sense to block the message is wasting time. Sorry to be so direct.

TW catches all errors thrown with the RSOD (red screen of distraction), that tells the user that something very wrong is going on.

So the way to go is to use a try catch at the (plugin) code level. If the catch is missing TW will show the RSOD … And that’s the problem here.

We need to identify the offending code and fix it there. … To do so, we will need a wiki which lets us reproduce the problem. From there it should be fixable.

As I recall the last discussion, the error in question is actually generated by the browser and is triggered in some way by video playback with the HTML5 <video> element.

FWIW, I can reproduce the RSOD easily with an mp3 / audio tiddler I have in my wiki, so it isn’t limited to that video tag. I’m willing to grant access to devs if need be.

Thank you it would be very helpful to be able to replicate the issue.

@Naenyn has kindly shared their wiki, but unfortunately I am still unable to duplicate the problem on my iMac. I’ve got an older laptop that I’ll give a try.

It seems Safari and FireFox does not have the problem. So you’ll need Chrome

Sorry I should have confirmed that, yes, like @Naenyn I was using Chrome.

A little bit of extra info. I thought at first it was related to browser width and it does seem to occur less frequently when the browser is smaller, but it definitely still occurs no matter what size my window is.

Just curious. Has anyone had any luck with this?

Annoyingly, I’m still been unable to replicate the problem on my machine so I’ve not been able to take it any further.

I guess this error needs an old machine with fresh Chrome to work :wink:

Hello all,

I encountered this issue, too.
Could it be that everyone having this issue uses Lastpass?

Best wishes,
Simon

Hello @BurningTreeC nice to read from you…

…but no. I never used lastpass…

Any other addin / something that wants to autofill input fields?

I do not see one, just the normal password manager.
My chorme is quite clean because I mostly use ff

Ah ok I see. I wanted to give it a shot though, I had a ResizeObserver issue but now I see that the message is a little bit different than this one. I got the following message and could solve it by disabling Lastpass for certain websites:

resizeobserver loop completed with undelivered notifications.
