crash with 4.5 hour audio file

Post by TEHK »

I tried to load a 4.5 hour audio file in Magic as an input source and it crashes every time. :cry:

The same holds true for flac, wav, and even a 65mb 32k bitrate mp3 file.

The crash dump was too large to post here, so I put it here : https://pastebin.com/raw/VyYG76W2 :!:

Also, I didn't realize that Magic is an x86-64 app. Is a native Apple Silicon version in the works? Maybe for 3.0?

I can't tell why Magic is crashing from the text, hoping Magic devs can answer that question. :?:

Just for context, I'm currently listening to an 8 hour mp3 playing from Magic (Windows). The file is 425MB, 128kbps. Sounding good. :D

Your dump indicates a null pointer exception but, as you say, one for devs to track down.

Make sure you are NOT loading audio files into memory.

I thought the 65mb mp3 would fit into memory just fine. But, nope!

Loading it, not into memory, solved the issue. TY!
