[Regression] Some RPCS3 crashes (e.g. installing firmware after a game is started) on Qt lib (#13876)
Quick summary
The issue is present since PR #13876, build 0.0.34-17155. Made several tests often reproducing the issue. I saw the issue starting a game with firmware not yet installed. Trying to install the fw (when asked) often causes a crash on Qt lib. Due to the bugged PR, the issue is probably more generic (not only related to fw installation). Below an example of the issue:

Tried 5x on Linux, could not reproduce Need Information: New repro on latest build
I will retest this night. However the the root cause of the issue (on Windows) was reported in #16492
the issue is still there
@digant73 can you still reproduce this?
yes, the issue is still there but slightly different. I didn't see a crash of the emulator. Now after the fw is installed the game is launched but the windows (reporting Compiling PPU etc.) is immediately closed. I have to double-click again on the game and then it seems to properly start (it compiles PPU etc.).
When you're missing firmware, it installs and compiles the firmware. Then you need to launch the game manually afterwards. If you were initiating a game boot without firmware, installing firmware cancels that as you can only boot one thing at a time. I'm not sure what's the expected behaviour you need here.
if so and the crash seems now no more present I think this bug report can be closed. There is still the bug discussed in #16492, After 3 times you open the dialog to select the fw the entire emulator freezes
As it's still an issue can you open a new ticket for https://github.com/RPCS3/rpcs3/pull/16492#issuecomment-2568371432 then?
yes I will, just to keep track of that residual minor bug
