#291076 - 03/12/2006 12:48 RMM keeps crashing
tahir pooh-bah Registered: 27/02/2004 Posts: 1913 Loc: London	Never had it before but every time I try to upload a playlist it errors, no text in the error box, just a yellow and black exclamation mark. Next time it starts up it rescans, try to upload, same result... I'm on Win2k with RMM 2.96 Any ideas?

The file is called source0.db and should be in your "%userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Rio\Rio Music Manager" folder.

tahir pooh-bah Registered: 27/02/2004 Posts: 1913 Loc: London	Just been looking through my playlists, the first playlist that comes up in RMM seems to have issues, if I go in to edit it I can't save changes, says it's in use by another application. I've deleted and recreated it and will try again

tahir pooh-bah Registered: 27/02/2004 Posts: 1913 Loc: London	Deleted the DB, deleted the playlist, saved the new playlist to a different name (was 1 radio.m3u, now 1-radio.m3u) and still the same result. Will search for the previous post Attachments 291511-1-radio.m3u (798 downloads)

The only even remotely odd thing about that playlist is that some of the files are listed as ".MP3" rather than ".mp3". Does it work if you change the extensions to lower-case? Peter

tahir pooh-bah Registered: 27/02/2004 Posts: 1913 Loc: London	Will do, I've also stripped all the tags. I'm going to reboot too, just in case.

tahir pooh-bah Registered: 27/02/2004 Posts: 1913 Loc: London	Must have been something to do with the files, unusually for me there were some files downloaded from the BBC in there, they had all sorts of tags including long comments, copyright and images. Stripped everything, redid the playlist, rebooted. All OK now.

tfabris carpal tunnel Registered: 20/12/1999 Posts: 31594 Loc: Seattle, WA	So, based on this and the other thread that got popped-to-top recently, we now have two different known-causes for RMM crashing? - Corrupted M3U playlists. - MP3 files with huge garbage like pictures and stuff embedded in the tags. Sound about right? _________________________ Tony Fabris
