I suspect that this bug is actually in one of the platform specific codecs rather than media scanner itself.
We've done about all we can to mitigate these problems. You'll notice that the new crash you've attached is in a different executable now: the codecs can only cause an extraction specific subprocess to crash now, with the main scanner daemon continuing on. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to mediascanner2 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1385358 Title: crash while pushing videos to device Status in mediascanner2 package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I consistently get a mediascanner crash when I push videos to my device after flashing it. These are the commands I run to send the videos: adb push ~/.cache/mwc/videos.tgz /home/phablet/Videos adb shell 'cd /home/phablet/Videos && tar xfvz videos.tgz && rm -f videos.tgz' The crash happens during the second command, extracting or removing the tarball. The video tarball itself is the same one we used for the MWC demo a long time ago. The resulting crash file is attached. I recall seeing this frequently for a long time, but the crash file I attached is based on krillin-proposed rtm image 124.
