MM4 fails spectacularly upon network disconnect

Post by nauip »

If you're playing from a networked source and that source disappears MM4 will become 100% unresponsive. If you're playing a song at that time it will permanently loop on what I'm assuming is in whatever buffer is used. This is what might be called Undesirable Behavior.

Replicating the problem is easy. Queue up something from a network source. Start playing a song. Pull your network cable. MM4 goes to faded window mode and you're left with 2 choices. Play the loop to infinity or force close the window. It never recovers, even if your source comes back online.

Actually this type of behavior happens on any source that disappears. I have had it on and external drive that came unplugged.
