Latest restricted WACUP beta release is build #20202 (September 28th 2024) (x86 & x64 changelogs)


NOTE: Beta testers are added in a limited & subjective manner as I can only support so many people as part of the beta test program to keep it useful for my needs.

Unless I think you're going to be helpful, not all requests will be accepted but might still be later on. Remember that beta testing is to help me & the limitations currently works for my needs for this project.

I am experiencing the same exact issue, it seems to happen when you handle the playlist in any way and you don't give it time to "buffer" in a way.

For example if I start playing a track and immediatly start click another part of the track WACUP will crash, if I give it a couple of seconds while it plays the track or do it while the track is paused it will not.

This crash also seems to just close the program without the usual message of it sending a crash report to the wacup website so it's likely the reason why you don't see the report, it has been happening a lot and most of those times it never showed the crash report message.

Preferences -> Advanced -> Error Reporting -> follow the procdump related instructions or run wacup.exe /procdump from a command-line window within the WACUP install folder to try to collect some form of crash report to try to help figure the cause of it.

I was able to follow the procdump instructions and could repeat the crash, I'm unsure if it worked but even so I'm leaving the dmp file and zip the last crash generated.

I uploaded the DMP file to Mediafire as the file is too lager to be attached here.

Do not ever post crash reports here as they contain personally identifiable information, they are almost always autosubmitted, if not you should pm them to dro
Maker of Plugins, I suppose.

There were 2 auto-submitted reports & one of them seems to match to what was posted here (as an additional note, dmp files tend to compress well & the report zip had a copy included in it).

The first obvious thing that's jumping out is the ajaxamp plug-in seemingly doing something & would suggest temporarily trying to run wacup without that plug-in enabled (preferences -> plug-ins -> general -> find in the list & un-check & then allow wacup to restart).

Otherwise it might be an issue with the re-used in_mp3 from the 5.666 installer which is still to be replaced.

The only other thing would be to try changing the output plug-in being used just to rule that out (some setups don't work well with the directsound output plug-in) via Preferences -> Plug-ins -> Output -> choose not so yasapi from the dropdown & restart playback (or restart wacup to be certain).

Thanks for the headsup, I'll be more mindful about the reports in the future then.

As for the Ajaxamp plugin disabling did not do anything and the issue persisted.

However changing the output plugin did resolve the issue and I have not been able to replicate it since.

So it seems to have been an issue with directsound itself, thank you for your help so far

That's good to know changing the output plug-in worked. I might finally have to consider changing the default output as I'm wondering if some of the other random crash reports I keep seeing might be related to whatever is going on (just a pain I've not been able to replicate it myself so far).
