Revision 903687
Go back to digest for 4th January 2009Bug Fixes in Multimedia
Mark Kretschmann committed changes in /trunk/extragear/multimedia/amarok/src/collection:
Fixed problems with the collection scanner missing part of the collection, or potentially failing altogether.
Specifically the problem was with restarting the amarokcollectionscanner binary after it has crashed, which we are doing transparently in the background, without the user ever noticing (normally).
The scanner can crash due to TagLib crashing, which still can happen sometimes.
The code for restarting the scanner was never properly ported over from Amarok 1, and it would often miss a part of the data during restarting.
This should be fixed now.
PS: This took me about 4 days of intense hacking, so I'm really happy now that it's done.
Please test :)
