Title: MC 13 hangs on exit
Post by: amorph on March 12, 2009, 01:09:03 am

Hi ,

i just installed MC13 on my new computer and discovered a strange problem: when i leave MC13 open while opening and closing some memory-intense programs, MC13 hangs when i try to close it. It keeps playing music, but the window freezes and it takes about 10 seconds to actually close it. I used Microsoft Process Monitor to look what MC is doing while it seems to hang. It is doing the following over and over again:

Any idea whats the cause?

Thanks

I can confirm this issue. In my case it was simply to reproduce by starting the computer, wait until all driver and services are loaded, start MC 13 (13.0.132) , play one MP3 song and try to close MC 13. I saw the same as amorph that MC 13 was fighting with the in_mp3.dll and that MC 13 was needing more than one minute to close. But after a couple of uninstalls, reinstalls, downgrading (to 13.0.101) and upgrading again (to 13.0.132) the problem is gone by themselves. Currently MC 13 is working like expected.

This should not happen.

If it continues, please provide a Media Center log as detailed here:
