Topic: Crash 100% reproducible

Use case:

Open Cog.
Add music from an external drive
Close Cog (it saves its playlist automatically)
Disconnect external drive
Open Cog
Crash.

Crashes both on 10.4 Tiger and 10.5 Leopard.

I think it tries to load ID3's from the playlist but as the source drive isn't present it crashes.
It's really annoying as I happen to use this scenario a lot (I have a laptop, at home I connect to an external drive, at work I no longer have this external drive attached).

Regards.

Re: Crash 100% reproducible

FWIW, i deleted the files in Application Support and the plist...  still same result.  i get a 100% reproducible crash every time i quit Cog on 10.5.1

Re: Crash 100% reproducible

sounds like some 3rd party software is interfering. com.ioxperts.vdig.webcam? Perhaps a bug in their driver?

Re: Crash 100% reproducible

good call, i noticed that in there but didn't know what it was.  now i remember, i install that many years ago to try to get a USB webcam to work with iChat (it never did).  well, there's an uninstaller i just snagged off the web, so that may do it...

...trying now...

and the uninstaller didn't work.  but, manually removing everything did!  excellent, now doesn't crash.  thanks!  (and sorry!!)
