Known Issues
Current Version
There are some bugs even in the current release. follow these guidelines to avoid some of them:
- if you are scrubbing the playhead when the "unpack" tasks are finishing, kJams can hang. I know what the problem is but it's a pain to fix and this bug has not been reported by anybody anyway.
- attempting to "Add to Library…" a protected m4v file will cause a crash. There seems to be nothing i can do about this, even Apple's sample code crashes too.
- don't edit meta info while ripping (you will be sorry). if you want to edit meta info after you rip, first clear your cache (prefs->audio)
- better not to delete songs while they are playing (STOP it first, pause is NOT stop)
- if it reports a problem with a playlist during startup, you should delete that playlist in the finder
- ¿Is this still an issue? a/v not synced: Touch the play head (this will re-sync the a/v)
- if you try to run a version prior to d44r4, AFTER you have already successfully launched d44r4, you may loose your library. Don't do it.
- Finer grain issues are documented here.
You may still run into bugs or crashes. Please always file high quality bug reports, and learn how to manually send me your crash reports and log files.
General Issues
Corrupted zip files: Update: Does anyone run into it ever now? This is common among songs that were compressed using winzip that you may find on the internet. they aren't technically all corrupt, tho some may actually be. most are compressed using a method that is NOT "deflate" (a typical codec that the ZIP format employs), and there is no software on the mac (stuffit, zlib, BOMArchiveHelper) that can decompress these non-deflate zip files. but move it on over to windows and it'll unzip fine, then re-zip it using zlib, you should be good to go. that's what that "make playlist of all bad zips" is eventually gonna be, you'll be able to gather them all in one place, move to windoze, re-compress them, move them back. that feature is not complete, the smart playlist doesn't really work yet. but it will!
