Infinite loop of doom scanning Music library - dteirney - 2009-06-10

I have my advancedsettings.xml file configured to exclude any Podcast directory within my Music collection (managed by iTunes).

Code:
<audio>
                <excludefromscan>
                        <regexp>Podcasts</regexp>
                </excludefromscan>
                <excludefromlisting>
                        <regexp>Podcasts</regexp>
                </excludefromlisting>
</audio>

I turned on automatic updating of the Music library and there appears to be an infinite loop somewhere as I had an xbmc.log file that was over 1Gb full of the same repeated information:

Have I screwed up my regular expression or is something not working right? Using week old SVN.

bug.

see MusicInfoScanner.cpp, line 332 in relation to line 386

Sweet. I'll look at that when my development box is back online - unless someone fixes it up in the next day or so.

HAH, and I thought I was going nuts.

Still, can't reproduce here ..

Patch uploaded. Would like it reviewed as I'm not sure why the existing code used a while loop. Details in http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/6598
