Title: MC11 crash "Upadating for external file changes"
Post by: dremo on March 28, 2005, 09:04:39 pm

I just installed MC11  and imported all my library info. All 6000 of my MP3's import without any problems. I noticed that I forgot to check the box to also import my AAC files from itunes. I went to import and included the AAC files. During the import everything was going fine. It imported the files, then said Fixing Links. On the step where the status bar says "Updating for external file changes" I get a crash asking if I want to send the error report to microsoft.

Any ideas?

Here is my system info:

Try the same thing, and let us know what you find.

Thanks.

I checked the log and the last item I saw was Updating Files to match external changes.

I tried to import my music only  (no m3u playlists) and was able to get the import done without any problems. When I imported my m3u playlists, it shows that none of the files are in the library. I get the little file with a red x for the icon. All I can guess is that there was something going on with one of my playlists. I'll try testing to replicate this bug.

I did notice that MC is trying to import every item in the playlist and putting the artist as Unassigned. Is this a bug or feature?
