I have two CDs have have been ripped as a single .APE file and their corresponding .CUE file.  When I drag the files from both Albums to the burn window and attempt to burn, everything appears to work correctly until the last file which stalls at about 50%.  The disc is eventually ejected, but won't play properly and Media Center is locked up with a blank black screen. 

If I convert the files to .WAV first and burn them it works perfectly.  If I burn from non-.CUE .APE files it all works perfectly.

I've tried this on two different systems, with MC 13.0.091 as well as the latest version of MC 12 and get the exact same behavior.

Any thoughts?

Is it happening with all CUE+APE combinations, or just a certain album?  You might verify the APE file with the tool at monkeysaudio.com to make sure it has been corrupted.

I'm not sure if it occurs with all combinations, but I've tested with four CDs ripped to .APE + .CUE and those combinations all cause the same problem.  I've also tested the .APE files with the verify option than they are "OK".

I actually observed the hang today.  The last file during writing is about 4% with the overall process at 51%.  The CD eventually ejects but is unusable and MC is locked up.

Just tried again with 13.0.101 and the same hang / lock-up.  Any thoughts?

This appears to be fixed in .102.  I've just tested in .104 and everything is working great.  Thanks.
