Crash...

[akispavlopoulos]

Hi again!

Now I have another problem! I have a list with 900+ video files and when I try to open the preferences tab, I get a crach. If I choose to continue with the application then the list of movies is turned black.

I attach the bug report file.

It's "List index out of bounds" error. That seems to go with the list problem, but it seems odd that would be triggered by opening preferences. Can you provide any more information that might help nostra?... Does it consistently crash in the same circumstances? Does it happen if the movie list is filtered? (Bookmark one movie, then filter on bookmarks so it is the only one shown.) Does it happen with a different database loaded? (It's good idea to have a small test database consisting of a few records of different types—to use for such testing.)

I'll try to reproduce the problem and tell you all the details!

It seems to be a problem with your configuration file. You could try deleting pvdconf.ini in "C:\Documents and Settings\%USERNAME%\Application Data\Personal Video Database\" to solve the problem.

Ok. here is how to reproduce the problem. On fresh install (I have unistalled the program including the configuration file), I open my database (about 940 titles). Then I go to Tools --> Preferences and I open the files scanner tab. I DELETE THE LAST LINE in find and replace window (the . and _ because I don't want to change the names of my videos in the database). I press OK and this is it. I hope this helps...

nostra I'll try to do what you say and I'll tell you!

Now that's interesting. I wonder if it's related to what we found here. Maybe there's a more general bug affecting the program's ability to properly recognize the last item in those lists. But they're all recorded in the configuration file, so rebuilding that is the next logical step.

What do you mean by "name?" This is for replacing characters in the title, not the file name.

In fact it was enough for me to analyze your bug report, so the problem is perfectly clear for me and it will be fixed very soon. This bug is not related to the stated this post: http://www.videodb.info/forum_en/index.php?topic=1697.msg7784#msg7784

Yes rick.ca, you are right! I meant the characters in title not file name.

nostra, I very glad that you you found the problem. Waiting for the next release!
