Re: [Easytag-mailing] easytag 1.99.12 sometimes crashes when deleting a file

[Randy Perkins <randyperkins randyperkins com>]

I ran the program from an xterm and it finally did it.

I got a lot farther this time.  Where it says "Message: device: default"
is when I select the audio player, which is xmms.  I was in Artist album
view.  Basically I had 2 copies of kung fu fighting, the artist was
misnamed in one of them.  I renamed the artist so they would both be the
same.  I highlighted both tracks and listened to them in xmms.  I then
decided which one to delete.  when I tried to delete the track the
program crashed.  Just to let you know, the file is deleted.
