Incompatible cuesheet playback attempt = crash

2013-02-02 02:24:45

Tested just now with 1.2.2, bug still present.

I have a cuesheet here which is obviously malformatted - every track has two indexes (ok) but all the times of index 01 are 00:00:00 when they should be momentarily after index 00.

This appears to be making foobar baulk and divebomb; every playback attempt results in an instant crash as it parses the cuesheet. Curiously it gets to track 3 before the parser gives up -- it displays the error "Unable to open item for playback (Error parsing cuesheet: invalid index list (line 18)):
"C:\path\to\cuesheet.cue"

Then the program quits and offers to let me see the crash log.

Related -- I've noticed quite a few times when fb2k does crash that the playback error box opens but then the main application crashes and takes the (helpful) error box with it. Is there no way to invoke the playback error dialog box as a separate process (in the case of the main player crashing), or handle exceptions slightly more gracefully?

I think I've only been able to make fb2k crash intentionally about half a dozen ways to date, most of which involve streaming or funky file formats (or formats which aren't what they seem) so on the whole I'm very happy.
