I've tried a few things, and I'm out of ideas. Good troubleshooting includes making sure you are trying to solve the correct problem. Once the Player was identified as the issue, It was easy to find the cause, and implement a solution. I had focused on the files as the source of the problem, and kept running into dead ends. All errors should have been resolved, or verified benign. If I got popups or errors, I ignored them because everything seemed to be working other than the popups. In my Post mortem, I remembered that I had done a restore from local backups a while ago, and according to the errorlog, that was about where my troubles started.
* I ran the update to, and everything is still fine. This got me to functional in 3.3, and no more errors. * I ran the installer for, after deleting the offending Dll. I mostly only use the Tagging Tools Plugin, and that was flawless so I didn't care as much as I should have. Removing / configuring plugins did not work consistently, but it worked well enough. It was also causing problems with plugins. This was causing my Error log to fill up because it was triggering errors every time I started playing a file, or playlist. I don't manually manipulate tags anymore.Īfter much experimentation, I finally found the culprit, and fixed another problem I didn't know I had along the way. In fact I also update them from time to time as the MusicBrainz database is updated. With a couple of minor scripting tweaks and ignoring genres, I accept all the tags it wants to give me, without any other checking.
After a good 15 years of playing around, I started using MusicBrainz Picard for all my tagging needs. On a side note, I've travelled the road you are now on. You will very quickly hate your life if you ever try to do any kind of tag based scripting. If you end up missing one of the pair you may not notice the issue until well down the road.įor the love of GOD, do NOT use different separators for different tags. All of the players I can remember playing with either had an option to specify your delimiter or it was just fine with my semicolons. Possible they are there but when I play outside of MusicBee I just don't care as much about my tags because when I'm portable, I only care about Album, Artist, and Title. MP3Tag says that the universal separator is " / " (Note the spaces, they are important.) I use Semicolons and I've not seen any issues. Am I just hitting raw system limitations? I've been looking for an excuse to upgrade, but I am hoping to limp along for at least a few more months so I can buy at least second gen new OS. Any pointer on where to look are most appreciated. I'm sure I've done something odd but for the life of me, I can't figure out what. I fully admit that I may have caused most of these issues on my own trying to customize file locations, but damned if I can remember doing anything out of the ordinary. I restored an older version of my ini file and I don't see any lost information. I may not have a fully standard setup, but damned if I know what's really different. I was trying to clean up my file structure, and ran into an issue where MuscBee wouldn't start at all.
I have been unable to run a full backup for quite some time, but this is my current status. 18564D - System.OutOfMemoryException: Exception of type 'System.OutOfMemoryException' was thrown.Īt (String value, Int32 startIndex, Int32 length, Int32 capacity) In my search I didn't see anything specific to my issue. I get this message when I try to backup my tags (My current signature has been updated to reflect my current setup.) I can't believe my library is too big. I've been having trouble backing up my tags for a while, but I just had a bit of a scare and feel like I need to fix it.
