In my setup I use genpuid to analyze and tag files before loading them into the SC library. That has all worked fine for quite some time, but recently, I started having a weird problem with genpuid.
I usually move new albums into a special directory and run genpuid on all files within that directory, then move the files to my music directory for the MusicMagic server and SC to find them. However, when I tried running this yesterday, genpuid would go through and fingerprint every file and then start the analysis. It would get through some songs (though never actually write the tags, which I think happens when it finishes everything) but then just stop working. The command didn't finish (in other words, I didn't get back to the command prompt), but the mipcore process was no longer showing in my list of processes, and the cpu usage went back down to nothing (this happens on a 64-bit arch linux machine). Here's the strange thing: I tried running file by file and noticed that genpuid works for any file that is less than 8MB in size, but for anything larger it just stops running without completing the analysis. I've confirmed this with three different albums: Anything less than 8MB gets scanned, anything more doesn't. There are no error messages or anything. These are MP3s downloaded from Amazon, and I've never had a problem with this before. I also often use flac, which are obviously often much larger than 8MB, and they always worked fine (though I haven't tried one recently). Finally, I copied one directory with 9 files that were less than 8MB (and appropriately analyzed) and 4 files that were more than 8MB (which couldn't be analyzed) over to my Music directory. I added the files through the MusicMagic Server web interface, and it correctly identified the 9 files as being analyzed and the 4 needing validation. I clicked on "start validation," but it just never stopped. So it seems that it is not just a genpuid problem.
