Title: MC crash in options
Post by: escaflo on June 17, 2005, 12:31:43 pm
Media Center will exit/crash without any prompts when playing around with the options settings. There's no fixed place where it will crash.

I've encountered it crash when I try to disable the "Show Grid Lines" and when I was playing around with the TV settings.

Try rebooting.

Try uninstalling, rebooting, reinstalling.

Tried all actually and it still crashes.

I've went back to .295 for now.

I've been through Options tonight and just went back and played with the ones you mention. No problems with them here.

Haven't rebooted since the install.

... and when I was playing around with the TV settings.

Do you remember what kind of "playing around" (which tab were you on, which feature did you change etc.) would trigger a crash?

One was in Trees & Views, when I uncheck Show Grids. Once was when I was in Playback and was playing around with the TV settings. It probably occurs after I've tweak about 10 other settings. But I am not sure whether that is correct or not.

GHammer, I know, it sort of frustrating for me too because I can't really reproduce it at a single location or after a certain duration. It just crash/exit after a while. I know how hard it is to find a bug which is hard to reproduce consistently.

Thanks for looking into it.
