If you have 'Growl' installed, it should post messages as notifications rather then process stopping dialogs, depending on the messages you're getting, it's better if people know something went wrong during the process rather than remaining ignorant of possible missing parts.
Since it crashes during the writing of metadata, I think it has something to do with the process I use to get mediafile information through 'mediainfo', looking at the filesize of your movie, I guess it's somekind of bluray rip? Maybe you could show me the folder structure?
Fair enough. In my case, subjectively it appears that it happens most often when trying to get recomendations, but it's hard to say for sure. (Edit: Growl for $4 is kind of crazy given it just replicates a feature in 10.8, but it works perfectly, thanks!).
From the above, it seems like you're using this library to pull the media information, is that right? The executable budled in your application contents seems to suggest so (also FYI, there's a newer version available). http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en/Download/Mac_OS
If so, I have some information regarding the audio codec stuff. I looked at several of my movies for the 'mediainfo' output, and I think I see where the problem resides, and was hoping you could take a look. According to their forums, Mediainfo's author says you need to use the Format field in tandem with the Profile field in order to get accurate codec output.
Movie #1, Track #1: "Format: TrueHD" = Correctly ecognized as "TrueHD" by VMM
Movie #2, Track #1: "Format: TrueHD / AC-3" = Recognized as "AC-3" by VMM, should preferably be "TrueHD"
Movie #3, Track #1: "Format: DTS" "Profile: MA / Core" = Recognized as "DTS" by VMM, should preferably be "DTS-HD MA" or "DTS MA"
Movie #4, Track #1: "Format: DTS", No Profile field = Correctly recognized as "DTS" by VMM
Movie #5, Track #1: "Format: AC-3" = Correctly recognized as "AC-3" by VMM
For the crashing item, I did rip it from a Blu Ray. However, I rip to .mkvs, so there's essentially just the one file in the folder if all the metadata is deleted. I tried deleting everything again, renamed the file to a simple unrelated word, and then attempted the Manual Search again. This time it completed. It happened again on another movie, and completed fine once I deleted the .nfo. It seems like it must be encountering something in the .nfo file that causes it to crash. The next time it happens I'll save the .nfo file.
