Re: Workaround for regular Crash setting (audio) file of player?
Hi David This rings a distant bell... not sure, but can you try set the filename of me to empty and then set the filename of me to audioFile to see if that makes a difference?

Re: Workaround for regular Crash setting (audio) file of player?
Interesting - I do have two monitors - though the player is on the main default monitor - I will try with the monitor disconnected.

Re: Workaround for regular Crash setting (audio) file of player?
Are you on a single monitor or do you have more than 1 display? It is a known bug that the player object freezes or crashes when petting properties on any monitor but the primary display: https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=20707 On 7/15/2023 9:07 AM, David Bovill via use-livecode wrote: I'm working a lot with media again - and the last two days I get a crash every 15 minutes when I set the filename of a player to various mp4 audio tracks. I'd love a workaround as its slowing things up quite a bit. I've seen this behavior quite a bit over the years with media and the player. it happens erratically - so works well then after 5 or 6 successful attempts setting the audio file in the script crashes livecode. Recipe: 1. *set* the filename of me to audioFile -- the offending line 2. audiioFile is one of several different m4a files (created using mergMicrophone) 3. The filename is a long path 4. No pattern regarding a particular audio file, or sequence I can detect If anyone has a thought of a way to set an audio file that will work without crashing... much appreciated. ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Workaround for regular Crash setting (audio) file of player?
I'm working a lot with media again - and the last two days I get a crash every 15 minutes when I set the filename of a player to various mp4 audio tracks. I'd love a workaround as its slowing things up quite a bit. I've seen this behavior quite a bit over the years with media and the player. it happens erratically - so works well then after 5 or 6 successful attempts setting the audio file in the script crashes livecode. Recipe: 1. *set* the filename of me to audioFile -- the offending line 2. audiioFile is one of several different m4a files (created using mergMicrophone) 3. The filename is a long path 4.
