Title: MC hangs after displaying Information messagebox
Post by: leoric on November 20, 2010, 06:12:42 am

Trying to play album of something unsupported, got "The mixing format of your hardware does not support the current output format. Please use ...". And that's it. MC completely hangs, so have to kill the app.

We'll test on our side.

But it's possible the hardware failed in a way that we can't recover from.  Since the audio driver gets loaded into our process during playback, if it behaves badly, it can lock or freeze Media Center.

One more thing to mention - it seems like MC tries to show a lot of messages in succession, without expecting user to close first dialog.
