MC24 hangs
« on: April 16, 2018, 05:13:01 pm »

As soon as I try to play a song from a playlist MC24 takes over the entire screen (no task bar) and hangs up.

Try F11.

In MC's Options, you can change settings in General > Behavior.

Has nothing to do with options.  MC24 crashes after a few minutes.  Have to hit ESC to close it.

Try turning off auto import.  Tools > Import.

Import is set to import a single folder.  Auto import is not selected.  MC24 is stable until I click on Albums.  It starts to load the artwork for the albums, but crashes after a few albums have had their artwork loaded.  I am running MC21 at the present without issue.

As soon as I select a playlist, MC24 crashes.  Task Manager shows 0% for CPU & Disk utilization.

Can you play this file?
C:\Users\William\Music\Peter Jennings-The Century\Disc-05 Over the Edge 1936-1941\Peter Jennings-The Century - Intro.mp3): Finish

It's the last file before a crash.  (The log should show a crash but doesn't.  Maybe it's a hang?)

One of the files at the bottom of the previous log may be causing a problem.

I removed the artwork for The Century, Disks 04, 05, and 06.  As soon as I click on audio MC24 starts to populate the artwork.   When the program hangs my PC is totally locked up.  I have to hit ESC to get control back.  Attached is the latest log file.  It did not create on the desktop.  I had to find it and zip it manually.

Last thing in the log is (again): 0013812: 8100: Database: Thumbnail Thread (C:\Users\William\Music\Peter Jennings-The Century\Disc-03 Boom to Bust 1920-1929\Peter Jennings-The Century - Intro.mp3): Finish (922 ms)

Might want to try moving the whole Peter Jennings-The Century folder temporarily and see if the crashes/hangs stop.

I think you're describing a hang, not a crash.  MC is still there, but not responsive, correct?  If it responds to escape, then it may not be hung at all.

How long do you wait?

Also hung up when I tried to play a video.  Task Manager shows 0 CPU, Disk, & Network utilization while in this state.

Something may be preventing files from being read. Antivirus?

I run Norton Security.  MC21 and MC24 are in the allowed programs in the Firewall list.  What is different between MC21 and MC24?

Antivirus would treat them differently.

Uninstall Norton, just as a test.

Uninstalled Norton.  No change in behavior.

If I navigate down to an individual song without displaying all the albums, I can play the song.  It is only when I try to open a window where all of the album artwork is displayed does the program hang.

What is the exact view you're in when this happens?

I click on 'Audio' and then click on 'Albums'.  MC24 starts to load all the album covers and then hangs.

In Standard View?  Or Theater View?

Are the files local?  Or on a NAS or USB drive?

Are you running Windows 10?  If so, did you configure Windows Defender?

I am using standard view.

The album artworks are local files; however, when I click on 'Video' MC24 starts to load the first frame of each video and then hangs up, same as when MC24 starts to populate album artwork.

I am using W10.  Windows Defender is configured as follows;  Virus and Firewall are defaulted to Norton.  The check apps and files is set to 'warn'.  Exploit protection for all metrics is set to default.
