Audacious closes when adding many MP3s to playlist

Added by T P about 9 years ago

Hi everyone, I just started using SparkyLinux and I've grown fond of Audacious. The issue is, when I want to load a good bit of mp3s to my playlist, the app closes. I can add 1 or 5 or 10, but once I get up to 50 or more at once, it closes as soon as it loads with terminal error:

audacious: index.cc:114: void IndexBase::remove(int, int, aud::EraseFunc): Assertion `pos >= 0 && pos <= m_len' failed.
Aborted

Any help is appreciated because I really like both this distro and Audacious! :)

Run Audacious in GDB and then type "bt" when it crashes. The backtrace will help to show where the problem lies.

I tested an old mp3 stash and found one which causes a crash. Here is the backtrace:

The only difference I could find between it and other mp3s is that it has an ID3 2.4.0 tag with 'extended header' and it is also plain Stereo (not Joint Stereo).

$ file audacious_3.6.1_crash.mp3
audacious_3.6.1_crash.mp3: Audio file with ID3 version 2.4.0, extended header, contains: MPEG ADTS, layer III, v1, 128 kbps, 44.1 kHz, Stereo

Rewriting the tag with easytag also corrected the crash.

Thanks for the info. The extended header claims to have a size of 177,480,369 bytes, which is obviously wrong. I will add a sanity check to the code to prevent the crash, but you should still use EasyTag to fix the tag since Audacious still won't be able to read it.
