Description

I'm using Audacious 3.2.4 on Lubuntu 11.10 x86-64. I noticed that when adding a bogus/fake non-MP3 file to a playlist, Audacious crashes with a segmentation fault.

Create the fake file:
echo sklslglkfjfg >test.mp3

Running audacious -V, output on adding that to a playlist looks like this:
VFS: <0x158fe60> open (mode r) file:///home/user/path/to/file/test.mp3
VFS: <0x158fe60> seek to 0 from end
VFS: <0x158fe60> tell = 13
VFS: <0x158fe60> seek to -128 from end
Segmentation fault

History

#1 Updated by Mark - over 12 years ago

If I enable the "Do not load metadata for songs until played" option, Audacious does not crash when I add the fake file to a playlist. It does crash when I right-click the playlist entry and select "Song Info...", however.

#2 Updated by Mark - over 12 years ago

I just tested Audacious 3.2.3 (as on the Lubuntu 12.10 disc). That doesn't crash, but the behaviour is less than ideal.

On adding the bogus file to a playlist, a dialog box appears saying "lseek failed: Invalid argument."
Console output when that happens:
VFS: <0xb4000d20> open (mode r) file:///home/lubuntu/test.mp3
VFS: <0xb4000d20> seek to 0 from end
VFS: <0xb4000d20> tell = 11
VFS: <0xb4000d20> seek to -128 from end
mpg123 probe error for file:///home/lubuntu/test.mp3: Message: I am done with this track.
VFS: <0xb4000d20> close
util.c:83 [audgui_simple_message]: lseek failed: Invalid argument.

The file does actually get added to the playlist. On double-clicking it or right-clicking and selecting Song Info you get the lseek failed dialog again.

Is this still a problem in the current version (3.3.2)?

  • Status changed from New to Rejected

I cannot reproduce a crash in Audacious 3.2.4 or 3.3.2. Please compile either version from source and then attach a backtrace of the crash. Alternatively, ask your distribution maintainers for support. We do not provide support for 3rd-party packaged binaries.
