[SOLVED] Rockbox 3.8.1 crashes when inserting from database
sandwich600:
Hi,
I am a Rockbox newbie, sorry if this is not the right place to report crashes.
Rockbox 3.8.1 crashes when adding several albums to the playlist from the Database view, where those files reside on the SD card, but not from the Files view, and not for all artists. My directory structure is the usual artist/album/song. This is for a Sansa Clip+.
To reproduce the crash, choose an artist residing on the SD card:
Rockbox->Database->Artists->Rush->(long press select key)->Playlist->Insert--->crash and restart.
To achieve the same thing without crashing:
Rockbox->Files-><microsd1>->Rush->(long press select key)->Playlist->Insert--->works fine
The artist "Rush" is stored entirely on my 16 Gb SD card, and contains several albums.
The crash happens only for a few artists. It seems to be related to an album directory name containing parenthesis "()". However, it still happens if those parenthesis are removed, and it does not happen for at least one artist where it should. And it does not happen if that album directory is chosen individually.
My mp3 tags seem to be fine. The files are perfect. The disk has been checked (fsck).

Chronon:
Bug reports belong on the tracker. The forums are suitable for discussing a problem prior to posting a bug report (to see if other people can reproduce the problem, etc.).
I can't check this until later today. Does the current build behave the same way for you?
sandwich600:
Thanks. I will test the daily build tomorrow.
Chronon:
If you copy the problematic files to the internal storage do you still see this problem?
sandwich600:
It does not crash when the problematic files are moved to the internal memory.
Ptocedure used for test: Moved files from external card to internal memory, Re-initialised the Database, then performed the Database play test as above. Whereas it crashed before, it does not crash now.
Have not had a chance to try the latest build yet.
