Greatest BSPlayer bug - deletes dir content :)
Using BSPlayer for some time, but this bug is the "greatest" I have ever seen. As I understand, it occures on the 0.86 49x-500 builds (haven't tested on 496 for example).
Ok, here is my observations:
recently I have noticed, that my temp dir (C:\TEMP) content is erased by BSPlayer. However subdirs & their contents are left untouched. As first I wasn't sure, what process makes such thing - I have used FileMon to track process (log is attached - look for delete actions ;))
Some notes before bug reproduce steps:
- I have temp dir c:\temp, which is set in TEMP & TMP shell variables (set in autoexec.bat);
- as I believe, BSPlayer on start creates _bspst$_ subdir in TEMP directory. When BSPlayer exists, this subdir (_bspst$_) is deleted.
Steps to reproduce bug:
- start BSPlayer (_bspst$_ subdir is created in temp directory);
- copy this dir (into the same dir or another place);
- close BSPlayer (_bspst$_ is deleted);
- move (or rename - it depends where you have copied _bspst$_) again into the temp directory. Now temp directory has _bspst$_ subdir (in my case c:\temp\_bspst$_);
- start BSPlayer .... and watch, how c:\temp\*.* is deleted)
This bug occures, if _bspst$_ subdir exists before BSPlayer start - this could happen if player crashes, so subdir isn't deleted.
Another interesting "bug" (this may be something wrong with the codecs): some MPG's couldn't be seeked - if I want to watch video not from the beginning and move futher, video still is played from the start. I can move almost at the end, however video is shown from the start. This is true only for mpeg format (*.mpg).
