xmms crashes

ontarianfrog · 22 March 2005, 02:23 pm

xmms crashes everytime i want to open a mpc file. it's never happened to me, been using it for a year.

xmms loads the songs, but crashes when it wants to retreive information from the tag.

anybody hear about that?

You must give us more information for us to identify the problem.

What version of XMMS? Linux? What type of tag do those files have? Is it an APEv2 tag or another tag? (not recommended) Can you private message me and give me the location of one of the offending files online? I'll look at it if you can put it on a web site.

iirc, this happens with id3v2 tags.

See my posts here:

The first post by me describes the problem I was having (as best I could initially tell) and my subsequent posts discuss what I found as the cause / solution.

Hopefully, this is your problem as well and you can correct the behavior yourself while the developers work on a solution.

With slashes inside also ?
The more bugs I see with tags, the more I want to just replace the tag handling with taglib
