Every time I try to import music folder Silverjuke breaks

[Guest]

I'm trying to import a folder with about 3000 songs but i breaks every time

[Guest]

Sorry, my friedn but i am not very familiar with english!

First of all:

1. Which kind of OS do you have (Win/Mac)
2. which kind of music files (mp3, wma ...)
3. How long is the path to the files
4. Maybe some corrupt mp3 files

1. It's on Windows XP
2. mp3
3. The path to the files is about 140-150 chars
4. Im not sure. Windows media player can play it

I would also assume some currupt mp3 files - Even if they can be played by the media player, they can be corrupt - there are other corrupt files that crash the media player and word well in Silverjuke ...

However, try to add only a part or your archive, then, step by step, add more until you find the folder with the error. Try over with the files in this folder.

But the problem is that's it dosn't break at the same song every time

I had a problem that "update database" comsumed(?) nearly 400 MB of memory.

As I start silverjuke without "--skiperrors" I find out that the update failed on a new added album. So i deleted it.

Then I made a "rebuild database" to get a clean database.

I have a similar problem. I had a number of folders that crashed Silverjuke. I could import all of the individual MP3 files without a problem. But if I selected the entire folder, "Silverjuke 2.51 has encountered a problem and needs to close"

The problem was .JPG files containing album art. The files were fine, but something about them caused Silverjuke to crash. I resampled them in photopaint and everything has been fine.
