Crash during Music update library scan
#1
Hi

A crash during Music library scan on Krypton has suddenly manifested.

What happens is:

When I update the Music library, KODI starts scanning as usual. After a short time, KODI crashes and returns to the desktop. I have tried cleaning the database, even deleting the database and starting from scratch.

Another thread suggests it may be a faulty FLAC or MP3 tag, but it is not clear to me from the log file.

Thanks!

I solved the problem myself.

In case anyone is interested, I discovered that KODI's logging can be set to audio system only. That way, by inspecting the log file dump, I could easily see the offending files.

It appears that incorrect tagging (even using MusicBrainz) can result in a crash. Hopefully, someone out there can 'harden' the database scanning to stop this.

I deleted the files and now the music library is scanned as expected.
