JRiver 21.0.91 crashing

<< < (3/5) > >>

Three:
For I don't know how long or for how many versions, but MC often crashes when I close it, and especially if it has been open for some time, say for over five hours. If left alone for a long time, it simply freezes. Still happens in 20.0.91. I can quit using the menu bar, so it all looks good, but when I reopen it, it says it quit unexpectedly last time and generates a crash report. I dutifully check the yes, restart, and the report gets sent off to whoever. If I were still a programmer (I'm retired), I would start searching for memory leaks.

Two requests for MC2.

1. Can the crashing be fixed?
2. Can MC remember the font size settings from one day to the next?

Bells and whistles and added functionality are great, but I would really like to see stability and consistency addressed first.

Thanks

Doug

Could you e-mail me the full crash report? I'm brad at jriver dot com.

I find that the UI always freezes on my MAC after a while and is unresponsive however JRiver continues to function via JRemote on my ipad. I have to quit the App on my IMAC to clear the screen but if I minimise the UI window before it freezes I just leave it.

Only the window and its controls freeze the menu options on the menu bar still function!

As stated previously it would be nice to get these issues fixed before adding more functionality.

I've had quite a number of these freezes myself.  I should qualify that though.  I normally see these once every couple of weeks.  Lately, with some tagging work I've been doing, it happens as much as 3 or 4 times a day.  The more I "exercise" the interface, the more frequently the freezes happen.  In my case, the interface sorta still works.  You can see that new files are being selected in the tagging window.  But everything else is "stuck".  No scroll bars, no updates in the main window, etc.

Oh and I should mention that I've had these through all of MC21 and *maybe* in MC20?  I just can't remember to be sure about MC20.

I thought I would update my post on my status.  Since posting this, trying a few things, generating the logs, nothing seemed any better.  About a week later, I tried the app again - and things have been great.  The unfortunate part is that I didn't change anything since I was having y stability issues.  Same MBP, same library (maybe a few new things but not much), same NAS etc.

I just sent my logs off to Brad as he requested - perhaps it will shed some light.  Knock on wood - JRiver continues to run as stable as it has the last couple weeks!

Cheers
