Description
Scanning for new music (sometimes at the second attempt) reproducibly causes a segfault.
There is no current playlist, which is possibly the root cause of the problem.
The segfault effectively occurs in MusicPlayer::activePlaylistChanged.
Backtrace is attached,

Found out that I had some mpg videos in the same directory as my mp3s. When I removed the videos - the scan worked.

Can you please update and try again both issues with trying to read the tags from non music files and the random segfault should be fixed now.

After the fix it work for me - it gives "MetaIO::readMetadata(): Could not read 'filename' for each of the mpg videos. Thanks!

Works for me now. I found the problem seemed to be related to 'Smart Playlists'. Scanning for new music would cause the crash if I went into 'Select Music' and scrolled down to 'Smart Playlists' first (didn't select anything, just scrolled down).
Thanks for the fix!

I am too experiencing this problem. It was also happening w/ a new install of 0.26. I've recently set up a new myth install and now have separate front and backends. The mp3 files are pretty much the same as my old setup that worked. The biggest difference is that the new seperate frontend access the mp3 files on a SAMBA server (happens to be the same machine as the backend). If I select individual subdirectories, MythMusic will scan a handful of songs OK so it appears that it's having a problem with specific mp3 files. I can't figure out which one(s) out of the ~5000 on the server. I will be happy to capture logs files or whatever will be helpful. I am working on figuring out how to work the debugging stuff. Tips & suggestions are very welcome.
