MP3 and OGG Encoders crash
« on: December 08, 2002, 08:23:33 am »

I get a lot of serious errors when I use MP3 encoder or OGG encoder. Sometimes blue screen appears and I must reboot. Sometimes it only freezes and I can kill the process in the task manager. Sometimes it crashes in winoldap or user.exe. These errors always occur at the beginning or at the end of songs or when I press the start button.
WMA and APE encoders are stable. The bugs are probably in MP3 and OGG plugins.
There are no problems if I use external encoder with oggenc.exe or lame.exe.
I have Windows 98SE.

I have the same problem (I only use the CBR MP3 encoder), have posted the error in the 85 and 86 build threads, and still have the problem with build 88.
Any idea about it?

:(  I also have the same problem.

This definitely must be a bug.


Also sometimes I had the following problem afther MC crashed:  When launching Internet explorer or other program that uses Dial up conection, the dial up window didn't appeared automatically.  The only solution for this one was to resuse an older registry.

I returned back to MediaJukebox 7.2 and then successfully converted seven albums to ogg.  The only problem was that MJ couldn't write tags and couldn't import ogg files to the library.

Version 7.2 can encode, but cannot write tags.
Version 8 and 9 can write tags, but cannot encode.
It is not possible to have both versions installed on one computer.  :'(

MP3 encoding crashes: the reason

Several users (including myself) have posted freezes and crashes during encoding. After suffering a lot I've isolated the problem: MC adds a backslash to the path in "Temporary file location" (File Naming Option). If you remove it, MC9 adds it again. If you point to the folder via the three dots it seems that the backslash is gone, but if you click OK and then return to the Options , the backslash is there again.
If you change the option from the Sound Recorder dialog, recording works correctly, but afterwards the additional backslash is readded. I've not checked build 89 yet, but in build 88 the problem is still present.

It seems a very easy to correct bug.

I have the same system info. Has anyone from JRiver tested Media Center on computers with this system info ?
Older versions of Media Jukebox were stable. This problem started somewhere around version 8.0.289.
