I've been using MC16 to sync with a micro SD card on my Blackberry Bold (principally to do a FLAC -> WMA encode).

It works 'ok' - it seems a lot more stable than MC14 anyway, which used to crash all over the shop during a device sync.

However, after @2-3 hours of snycing (I have ~30 GB to transfer so it takes a while) MC throws up a C++ Runtime error...

'Runtime Error!

Program: ...Files (x86)\J River\Media Center 16\Media Center.exe

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way...' blah blah blah, you know the drill.

This has happened a few times now. Any ideas what’s causing the issue? I’ve initiated a log now, so if/when it happens again I could potentially submit it…

Another question on syncing - if I try and run all 4 cores at the same time, MC quickly crashes. Is there a fundamental problem trying to use 4 cores for processing or should this work? It would greatly reduce my sync time if it worked...

Using 4 cores should work unless the encoder has a problem.  But the sync speed is probably limited by the connection, so try using just one process at a time.

Hi Jim. Setting 4 simultaneous processes *usually* leads to a crash ("MC has stopped working...") as soon as the format conversion/transfer process starts (i.e. immediately ater the file check). If it manages to start the format conversion process without a crash, it seems to be ok (aside from the inevitable C++ error after an hour or so). I think I get various different crash records, but for example:

I continued to get C++ errors every couple of hours on my sync. I checked the log file immediately after a crash, but there's nothing suspicious in there.
