Title: mediacore error/mc crash with specific mpc files
Post by: Xstatic on September 14, 2003, 01:56:49 pm

When playing any file from same album, MC announces a media core error and shuts down.

Other files play as the should.

I did this:

- removed tags from the files (was done succesfully)

- updated tags from library (was done succesfully)

- scanned them with MPCscan to check for errors in the files (mcpscan reported no errors in any of the files)

None of these actions took care of the problem.

What more can I do to find the why for this?

arrghh, just found some more files that result in crash
when wanting to play them.

Oddly enough with the same artist. I wonder if MC
has a problem with Eric Clapton?

Did the same exercise now with those (remove tags, update tags, scan for errors) - and the still won't play.

sorry..me again.

This must be a bug - today I have encountered several other files that I can't play - I only get a second or two of music before the media core error appears and mc shuts down.
