Title: Media Center crashes after 1 minute
Post by: Hedge on June 08, 2013, 10:43:09 am
I've been a user of the Mac-version since a very early revision (like 60 or something) and I'm upgrading fairly often.

Since a few revisions (currently 194) MC  keeps crashing all the time after like 1 minute but I don't know why.
What can I do about this?

I attached the log after a crash.

Please try an older build that did work.

Where can I find older builds?

Will you investigate on the problem?

I'm not sure it is a problem yet.

See the other threads on this board for other versions.

What kind of response is this?
I'm a paying customer and if I can't use your product for reasons which have nothing to do with my side there is clearly action required on your side or at least some help to troubleshoot it.

I've given you something to try.  You may find out that what worked before no longer works.  That might mean a problem unrelated to MC.  Or not.

I looked at your log and saw nothing useful.

It's Saturday here.

I respect that you need your weekend as much as anyone. Just having no outlook that I'll be able to use my favourite audio manager (for 7 years now btw.) in the near future as a passionate DJ with a lot of gigs in the next two months doesn't make me very happy.

I tried like 10 different builds now.
Up until revision 168 they all complain that the trial has ended.
Starting from revision 174 they all crash.
So I got no option to use MC now.

Looks like there is some data present which it can't handle. Any ideas?

Do you have the system set to automatically watch certain folders?  Thus far, no matter the version, if I enable this feature MC crashes within a minute.  Try turning it off if you can and you may be able to avoid the crashing.  This worked for me each and every time I tried to have the auto import selected and I would repeatedly crash.

@Zanth:
Thank you. That fixed my problem.

Excellent!  Glad it worked.
