[9.0a] Crash on background (queue) move

Post by *setalosas »

I run into this last night at least 8-10 times - I didn't experience it before.

I was moving around quite a lot of big files among different disks. I use F6/F2 for moving the files, adding more folders from the main window while the operation is still going. (One instance is running.)

Sometimes the queue process stops with a dialog and asks for confirmation (rewriting a file, etc.) - this is normal. In this situation two things can happen:

1. If I notice the dialog immediately, I click on one of the options (e.g. 'Skip'), the operation continues as expected.

2. If I use the TC main window and the dialog comes up, but I don't notice it (usually I put the queue move window on the other monitor) and I try to click somewhere on the main windows - TC completely freezes in most of the cases. After the 'accident' I cannot click on the background dialog neither. No response - I have to close it from the taskbar.

It seems some focus-related thing, if the background process shows a form, I have to interact with that, and not with the main windows, as this makes it crash.

I recently installed the MediaInfoWDX plugin, if this counts.

Frozen dialog from the background process (buttons are not clickable):

After this, no more dialogs, no more interaction at all. When I try to close it from the task bar, I get this:
