Windows XP freezes when MJ8 is playing
« on: May 29, 2003, 07:24:52 pm »

Whenever I leave MJ playing in the background my computer completely freezes up after about 10 minutes. I cannot do anything to get windows back other than hit the reset button. Ctrl+Alt+Del does nothing (a first for me with XP) I play mostly ogg vorbis files but it also happens when I play mp3s. My system information is as follows...

Media Jukebox PLUS 8.0.394
Install Path: C:\Program Files\J River\Media Jukebox\

CPU: Intel Pentium 4 2392 MHz MMX
Memory: Total - 523 MB, Free - 345 MB
OS: Microsoft Windows XP  Workstation 5.1 Service Pack 1 (Build 2600)

Internet Explorer: 6.0.2800.1106
ComCtl32.dll: 6.00.2800.1106
Shlwapi.dll: 6.00.2800.1106
Shell32.dll: 6.00.2800.1145
wnaspi32.dll: Internal ASPI Layer

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program but the same thing happens. If anyone has any ideas please let me know.

Does the music halt due to buffering, then freeze the application? Are you streaming over a network or are music files hosted on the same computer as playback? I have seen buffering (temporary halting of music) followed by total freeze of app (not OS).

No it halts durring playback not when it is buffering and it does freeze up the OS not just the app. I am not streaming and I am playing the files off of my hard drive. There is no networking involved.
