Loading playlist crashes

Postby icc97 » 05 Sep 2014 14:32

If I try and load in the following track via a playlist the playlist won't load in any more tracks after this one (i.e. it appears to quietly crash):

Code: Select all

<track> <location>file:///C:/Users/Ian/Sync/Music%20Temp/Beastie%20Boys/Ill%20Communication/01_Sure%20Shot.mp3</location> <title>01_Sure Shot</title> <creator>Beastie Boys</creator> <album>Ill Communication</album> <annotation>&#8;</annotation> <image>file:///C:/Users/Ian/AppData/Roaming/vlc/art/artistalbum/Beastie%20Boys/Ill%20Communication/art</image> <duration>199425</duration> <extension application="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/playlist/0"> <vlc:id>0</vlc:id> </extension> </track>
The problem is the annotation element value.

Code: Select all

<annotation>&#8;</annotation>
If I just leavea a blank annotation element, then it loads fine i.e.

Code: Select all

<annotation></annotation>
Loading the playlist shouldn't stop for such a minor problem surely?

I cross posted this on https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=107883 because that was the post I came across when searching for my problem.

I have the following setup:
  • VLC 2.1.5
  • Windows 8.1
  • 64-bit
  • 8 GB RAM

I wonder if you could please explain how you found and how you edited the annotation :)
