hangs when scrolling through songs list

Post by gordonli1980 » Wed May 14, 2014 8:14 pm

On both Samsung S3 I9300 and HTC One M8 international version, Neutron hangs when I scroll through the "songs" list and eventually force closes. This happens with Neon and non-Neon versions 1.77.2 through to 1.77.6. It may have happened on earlier versions but I don't have them anymore to re-test.

If the list behaviour is set to "sort by artist, year and album", scrolling up and down quickly using the song list scroll bar will hang Neutron. If I turn off all sorting behaviour so that songs are sorted by filename then scrolling doesn't hang.

I have around 800 songs arranged in this folder structure on my external microsd card:
\music
\ <artist name>
\ <album name>
\ <music files>
\ album cover.jpg

In each album folder I have the music files and the album cover jpg so that Neutron displays the album cover for each song.

Please explain with an example. I have - Artist - Album name - songs and cover.jpg

My example is
Dream Theater - Train of Thought - 01 As I Am.flac
Dream Theater - Train of Thought - cover.jpg

On my external sd card I have this type of folder structure

/music/classical/Bach, Johann Sebastian/Brandenburg Concerto No 1 in F Major/1 - Allegro.flac
/music/classical/Bach, Johann Sebastian/Brandenburg Concerto No 1 in F Major/album cover.jpg
/music/classical/Mozart, Wolfang Amadeus/Symphony No 40 in G Minor/1 - Molto Allegro.flac
/music/classical/Mozart, Wolfang Amadeus/Symphony No 40 in G Minor/album cover.jpg
.
.
.
/music/classical/<artist>/<album>/<title>.<extension>
/music/classical/<artist>/<album>/album cover.jpg

where <extension> is either flac, m4a or mp3.

The bug seems to be fixed in 1.78.0 Neon. No hangs so far while scrolling in 'Artist, Year and Album' sorting mode.
