Buffer overflows during scan
Last modified: 2011-09-29 04:31:34 UTC
I have a library of ~ 16k songs in mp3 format, of which about 150 cause scanner errors - the scanner skips this entry and continues to the next. The songs are mostly tagged with MusicBrainz Picard and tags can be read OK on other music players including Amarok, Rhythmbox, and iTunes when copied to Windows. Here's an extract of the log: [11-06-28 14:30:03.9856] Audio::Scan::scan (64) Warning: buffer_get_ret: trying to get more bytes 4 than in buffer 0 at /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/CPAN/Audio/Scan.pm line 64.

I've been running 7.5.4 on Ubuntu 11.04 and just tried with the latest nightly build of 7.5.5 - r32554 with the same results. Previous versions of SBS have had the same problems.
I tried to attach one of the offending mp3 files (3.9Mb in size) but every time I try I get a "connection reset by server" error. If you need to see the file please let me have an email address and I can send it.
Now using version 7.6.1 - r33110 and I get a different error, but scan is still failing for 100+ tracks in my library, which have been tagged with Musicbrainz Picard and can all be read by other music library products (see below) The new message is as follows: [11-09-22 09:43:31.3038] Audio::Scan::scan (64) Warning: APE: [Ran out of tag data before number of items was reached] /srv/share2/music/Various Artists/Now That's What I Call Music! 71 (disc 2)/14 - Keane - Spiralling.mp3 Any ideas please?
