It's not causing the lockup, though.... I've experienced it a few times more since then, always with Emplode loaded and connected, and the player playing a playlist.

With the player paused, no problems. With it playing, and me editing in emplode, it DOES lockup.



Re-visiting this.

I'm able to reproduce a player lockup pretty reliably now.

Here:

Fresh boot of empeg, fresh instance of emplode.
Let the player play some songs (Barenaked ladies in this case... )
Connect to the player using Emplode.
Make changes for ~3-4 minutes.
Try to synchronize.
watch Emplode return a "Failed to open a database connection (error 0x80040015)"
Notice the player is still playing... Check Serial... Nothing printed.
Press next track button. Watch the interface and display lock tighter than a drum immediately after it changes the info line.
Note that there is still nothing on the serial.
Pull the plug on the power. No eek.
Plug power back in. Normal bootup.

I can edit tags all day long if the player is in a paused state. If I'm doing it with the player going, it locks.

Anyone else seeing this type of behavior?
