Also happening in 17.04. Started happening after a fsck repair following a power failure. Could be related to lost/corrupt files.
Running tracker-extract manually on file shown in syslog gives the following. roger@dragon:~/Documents/Old Stuff/Camtasia Studio$ tracker extract --verbosity=detailed visualimpact.avi Tracker-Message: Starting tracker-extract 1.12.0 Tracker-Message: General options: Tracker-Message: Verbosity ............................ 2 Tracker-Message: Sched Idle ........................... 1 Tracker-Message: Max bytes (per file) ................. 1048576 Setting priority nice level to 19 Loading extractor rules...

"The actual extraction is done by a separate process. This is done to isolate the calling process from any memory leaks or crashes in the libraries Tracker uses to extract metadata." -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1504079 Title: tracker-extract crashed with SIGSEGV in gst_video_info_to_caps() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tracker/+bug/1504079/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
