Keeps crashing, fresh upgrade
« on: November 19, 2017, 05:38:13 pm »

I just installed MC23 stable (upgrading from MC22) on 16.04 Ubuntu and it keeps crashing after a few minutes of opening. The first few times a message was displayed that insufficient memory was available to send a report, now it just crashes with no message. I had configured it  to auto-import a large amount of files in two volumes on a single HD. It crashed after importing some 2500+ files and now crashes within a few minutes of opening.

Did you try turning off auto import?

I see no option to "turn off" auto import. By that do you mean remove all the folders from the list?

That should work.

Yes, thanks, it seems it did. It took multiple tries to disable all the folders before MC23 crashed. I had to stop them one at a time. Things stabilized when I got down to one folder. Why would I have had a problem in the first place? Should auto-update be limited to one folder?

No, it should work.  I don't know.

What kind of files?  Where are they located?

I had a TB or so of audio and video in several folders in two volumes on a single hard drive. When I stopped auto-update, the crashes stopped.

It's probably a specific file type.  Maybe video.

I'll try an audio only import across multiple folders in the coming days.
