Dynamic Playlists Cause Crashes?

At first, I had no troubles with Dynamic lists.  I opened the "create" dialog to poke around, and then closed it without creating a playlist.

The next time I started mC, the two existing Dynamic Playlists had disappeared.  I clicked on the "Create..." button, only to get an error:

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\Program Files\musikcube\musickCube.exe

This application had requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.

Once I hit "ok" the program ends.  It starts up again fine, and everything else seems to work.

I tried reinstalling mC, but I still get the same error.

Edit:  I forgot... I'm running XP Pro SP2

Re: Dynamic Playlists Cause Crashes?

Severity: Critical?

mC Version: 1.0

OS Version: XP SP2

I tried it and got a different result.


Steps to Reproduce:

1. click create
2. delete "New Playlist" confirm with enter
3. close the opened editor with OK

Result: Playlists disappeared randomly from bottom to top each cycle. After several cycles the result is clearly to be seen.

No Error was displayed on my system.

Re: Dynamic Playlists Cause Crashes?

Hm, I can't reproduce such strange behavior(s) now.

Can you please describe the steps for reproducing more exactly?

Re: Dynamic Playlists Cause Crashes?

1. click create
2. 'New Playlist' is shown and selected
3. DEL or BACKSPACE, i guess there was no difference
4. ENTER
5. editor is open
6. mouseclick OK
7. empty dynamic playlist created and randomly? some are gone
8. delete empty playlist

EDIT: Done this again (with BACKSPACE) to verify if I missed something and now even my last Dynamic Plylist has gone.

Re: Dynamic Playlists Cause Crashes?

Well, we have a new candidate for the "Greatest Mystery Bug"... Crackling sound beware... smile

I tried it like LordShip described:

At first try (with Backspace) nothing seems to happen. After restarting mC, the nameless playlist was away but also one if my own lists.
After that I tried it agaon for a couple of times (del and backspace and a lot of mC restarts), but the most times nothing happened anymore (the nameless list was still there). Once the nameless list was gone after mC restart.

Real strange...! I am using Win XP SP1 with a new mC 1.0 Final installation.

I checked the database with a SQL viewer but did not see much (well, maybe it is because I don't know SQL): The list that was deleted had the highest "dyn_playlist_order" (10; and I have the "9" twice there but no "6").

Well, I backuped/exported my database before that (that is the cause for the not-working of a reinstallation, poco153. The playlists are inside the DB). After trying it again once with my backuped list, nothing was gone after a restart...

Update: I tried is numerous times with deleting the playlist after creation, but now I got no missing playlists.

PS: Nameless playlists shouldn't be allowed.
