Description

In the 0.4 Windows build:

  • load a file
  • select a region
  • hit Ctrl+Return to show alternative candidates
  • switch on the Loop and Constrain to Selection playback controls so only the selection is playing
  • start playback
  • select a different candidate using Ctrl+Up or Down
  • wait until the playback buffer has cleared and the new candidate is playing (this delay is arguably a bug too from the user point of view)
  • hit Esc

and the program crashes ("asked the runtime to terminate it in an unusual way").

There is a pause before crashing; possibly it ran out of memory.

I can reproduce this on other platforms as well, although not always at first attempt. If you start messing around with selecting & clearing selection repeatedly, it'll crash or lock up eventually.

There's evidently some fundamental thing going quite wrong here and it may be related to #841 and possibly #956.

No idea whether this is relevant, but I get:

On a Mac while approximately following the steps you describe above.
