Crash on startup: parse error - unexpected end of input

Hello,
I've been using foobar2000 since around 2007 and couldn't be happier with it. However, a few days ago my foobar2000 (then v1.6.16) all of a sudden began to crash. Two things preceded (that I can think of):
  • I moved 15gb of music into the library
  • I started using UPNP more frequently than before
What I've tried:
  • Moved that music out of the directory that's being monitored by fb2k (suspecting some unicode weirdness in directory/file names)
  • Removed UPNP plugin directory and it's config files
None of that helped. I tried to update to v2.0 - still crashing with the same message. It does work in safe mode though.
Attached are the crash logs from both 1.6.x (failure_00000030) and 2.0 (failure_00000037).
Please advise.

foo_rehearsal seems to cause the problem.

It was, indeed, foo_rehearsal – thank you! Now I'm feeling slightly dumber for overlooking such an obvious thing.
Nothing had really changed in my player config when it started to crash. I haven't even used the plugin in a while...
