Hi Hendrik

Logs sent a few moments ago. Been trying the Scan Playlist feature today - it starts OK but eventually hits the wall - and it freezes BT. Repaired the database and tried again after closing BT. Still freezes. SP is a great feature! Just need to get it working through a list :)
Help appreciated

Thanks

    Hey Jan,

    there are multiple Scan Playlist modes. Which one did you use? Or do they all lead to a beaTunes freeze?

    Thanks,

    Also: What kind of freeze is this? beaTunes does not react to anything anymore? Or temporary? Or a crash (beaTunes disappears)?

    Thanks.

    Apologies for the delayed response - The mode I use most is the one with the star - goes straight to about a third through and plays for 20 to 30 seconds. However, all of them lead to a freeze....
    BT does not react to anything - click File or Edit or anything else and there's no reaction at all.
    If it helps, I'll try to do a screen video

    Thanks

    Hey Jan,

    can you please try to set the environment variable BEATUNES_MEMORY to -Xmx2G?
    See http://help.beatunes.com/kb/troubleshooting/manually-changing-the-b... for details.

    The restart beaTunes. Does that help? If not, please upload a new set of logs, right after the problem occurred.

    Thank you,

    -hendrik
