BUG: invalid .wav file hangs Polyphone & worse

  • ES 5 0
    Message from Ed Stauff on
    Description
    When opening a .sfz file, if one of its sample files is invalid, Polyphone displays an empty "Warning" dialog and hangs. While in this state, I was unable to take a screen shot.
    After terminating Polyphone, screen shots worked again. Screen shots were disabled only while Polyphone was hung displaying the Warning dialog.

    Steps to Reproduce
    1. Find a sample file that is referenced by a .sfz file. Replace the sample file with a file that isn't a valid .wav file (I used a small text file).
    2. Open the .sfz file in Polyphone.

    Product Version = 2.3.1
    Operating System = Windows 10.0.18362.959
    Screenshot Software = Greenshot 1.2.10 Build 6 (64 bit)

    I can confirm that a corrupted .wav file included as an .sfz sample does indeed give a warning notice when the .sfz is opened in Polyphone and Polyphone does then hang until terminated. Whether this is of any great importance is another matter which I will leave for others to worry about.

    i guess every application that is fed with corrupt data will freeze, (except the Recycler)
