Yep, thanks Jim! I'm not seeing that particular issue though, thankfully. Theater view is working normally on that machine, no white screens or anything.
The crashes seem to happen with audio playback only (like clockwork on every track change) whether I'm in standard view or theater view.

Could you try turning those off? Just to try to isolate where the problem might be.

Sure Jim! I just reproduced it with the debug build bob sent me and with convolution and DSP turned off. I've attached the full backtrace. Just a heads up, it's an enormous text file when uncompressed (about 40MB uncompressed, but less than 1MB zipped up!)
I can't fully grok the symbols, but it sure looks like something weird is happening in the library sync.

Would you take a look in this directory?
/home/michael/.jriver/Media Center 30/Connected Library/*
MC is trying to glob (the *) the contents of that and it's crashing in a linux system library function. Look for weirdness, use the
--- Code: ---ls -laR
--- End code ---
command to show hidden files too.
You may want to try that during playback too
like
--- Code: --- ls -aR | wc -l
--- End code ---
to see if the number of files is growing uncontrollably.
edit: added the R to recurse because there are subdirs

Ok, so this is interesting. I compared the ls output from the crashing system to the non-crashing systems and I noticed that the crashing system had two empty directories with names that had a trailing backslash. So instead of just having a directory called "Original" the crashing system had both "Original" and "Original\". It also had a "Delta\" directory but no "Delta". So I removed the two directories with trailing backslashes and now it seems to play back fine? Maybe it's a relic from when I migrated the local library on that system across from windows to Linux a while back?
I'll post back if anything crashes, but so far so good.
